What Braise pays your machine

Compute Credits in closed beta. Money when the network opens, for every qualified provider.

If you put a machine on Braise, here is what it receives. And when that switches from credits to money.

Compute Credits, for now

During the closed beta, every completed job pays Compute Credits. They are network usage units, spendable on that same network. Not money. We will never present them as money.

They let the network economy run while we measure what a job is actually worth.

When the network opens, providers are paid in money

When the network opens, credits are retired. Providers are paid in money. Qualification conditions are published on the same screen as the promise: if you meet them, you get paid. There is no invite list. Credits do not stay around next to money.

No figure until we have measured it

We will publish no earnings figure. No amount, no range, no “up to”. First we need a measured distribution of rewards per online hour, per hardware tier, over a stated window.

Same on the consumer side: no savings percentage until a dated price index compares our real cost per job against the public rates of named commercial APIs.

We will not publish a number we have not measured. It would not survive the first person who checks.

What the node can read

The provider running your job can read the prompt. Encryption covers transport. On the worker, the prompt is readable. We repeat it here and on the home page because it is true on every network like this.

We do not sell more demand than we can serve

If we sell more demand than the network can serve, we have failed, even if revenue looks fine for a week. Cohorts stay small, providers first, on the models where capacity is actually short.

If that feels slow, it is on purpose. We only publish what we can stand behind.
