Your computer is on all day anyway. Let it earn its keep.

Run an open AI model on your own machine (the same Ollama setup you might already have) and ShareAI sends it real questions from real users. You get paid for every answer, automatically, in USDC. You set the price. You decide when it runs.

Start earning I just want cheap AI no subscription — ever

No email, no account forms, no fine-print gotchas. Payouts run themselves, and your machine plays by your rules.

Two sides, one handshake

Some people bring a computer. Others bring questions.

That's the whole idea. One side earns money with hardware that would otherwise sit idle, and the other side gets AI without yet another monthly subscription.

If you have a machine

Put it to work

You run an open model with Ollama, we route real chat requests to it, and you earn per processed token at a price you choose yourself. When you shut your laptop, you're simply off the rotation. No penalty, no minimum hours.

If you have questions

Pay for answers, not for a month

Top up a small USDC balance and chat with any model in the marketplace. You see the exact cost after every single answer (usually a fraction of a cent). No account, no email, and nothing renews behind your back.

How earning works

Three steps, then it runs without you

1

Start the worker

Download the small shareai-worker script and run it next to Ollama. If Ollama already works on your machine, you're five minutes away.

2

We send real questions your way

When it's your turn in the queue, actual chat requests from paying users land on your machine and your model answers them.

3

Money shows up

You earn per processed token at your own price. Once it passes the payout threshold, USDC lands in your wallet. There's no invoice to write and nothing to click.

An honest word

We're new, and we won't pretend otherwise

No inflated user counts here. ShareAI just launched, which means early contributors get the traffic first and early users get to shape what this becomes. If you like being early, this is that moment.

We don't publicly list who runs what; contributors here stay pseudonymous, on purpose. How contributing works →

Why this exists

We got tired of two things: paying for three AI subscriptions we barely used, and watching perfectly good computers idle all night. ShareAI is our fix for both. A small marketplace where one person's spare machine answers another person's questions, and the money goes to the person, not a platform's shareholders.

It's deliberately simple. No accounts, no tracking pixels, just a queue, a ledger everyone can audit, and payouts that run on time.

— the people building ShareAI
For the question-askers

Top up once. Chat with everything.

Good AI shouldn't require a monthly commitment you'll forget to cancel. Put a few USDC on your balance and it works across every model here. If you don't care which model answers, SmartSave quietly picks the cheapest one that's up to the job.

How using it works

Easier than remembering which subscription has which model

1

Top up

Send a little USDC from your wallet. That's the whole signup.

2

Pick how to spend

Let SmartSave choose the cheapest capable model, or hand-pick a stronger one when it matters.

3

See every cost

After each answer: what it cost, what's left. No surprises at the end of the month, because there is no end of the month.

Prepaid balance

Start small. Seriously — start small.

A few USDC goes a surprisingly long way when you only pay for actual answers. Top up more whenever you feel like it.

SmartSave

We pick models for the job, not for the name on the box.

A translation doesn't need the most expensive model on the market. SmartSave reads the task, routes it to something cheap that will do it well, and tells you exactly what it spent.

Save

Translations, short texts, quick questions. Cheap and cheerful.

Automatic

SmartSave sizes up the task and picks the most economical model that can handle it.

Premium

When the work is hard and you want the strong stuff. Your call, price shown upfront.

From the marketplace

Models people are running right now

These are promoted by the contributors who run them, on their own hardware, at their own price. You see the exact USDC amount after every answer, and everything else lives in the full marketplace.

No featured models yet; the shelf is still being stocked. Contributors can advertise their models from the dashboard.
