The box is already on for the family. Spare capacity is a side effect.
Darkbloom proved idle silicon can sell private inference. Mama already
has the harder piece: a household gateway, a privacy gate, and a mesh.
Share is how members opt in — never family memory, never PHI, never
household IP. Money below is a worked example, not a
guarantee. Live demand moves the number.
Example / month
$0
MacBook Air / Mini Face · never Share-on · never executes.
Example / month
$0
macOS Face stays a client. 32 GB Mac still never serves the mesh.
Example / month
$8–18 EXAMPLE
Linux Halo 64 GB+ only. Not a payout. Alpha = mesh credits.
Your own use
$0
Self-route: inference on your Mac for you is always free.
Worked night on a Mini: about $0.80–$1.40 after electricity. Home-page
worked examples for nights on AC are $8–18 / $18–40 / $30–70 — not a
guarantee. Face hardware stays $0. Live demand, schedule, and power
price move it. Alpha settles in mesh credits until USD payouts are live.
T0 · House
Family
Your devices. Your RAG. Hard private. This ring is never sold and
never routed to a peer.
T1 / T2 · Mesh
Members
Named household plus-ones, then anonymized Mama peers. Credits, not
USD. Identity keys are stripped or the job is refused.
T3 · Attested
Public (not live)
Operator-blind jobs and Stripe payouts come after hardware
attestation. We will not pretend that is shipping today.

$99 All-Models is unchanged. Share is included, not a new SKU. Alpha
settles in mesh credits (100 credits = $1.00 planned conversion — not a
payout). Compute runs on your gateway, not on mama.oliwoods.ai.
