Device Owner mode launches Q3 2026. These chapters describe the implementation under active development. Screens and click-paths will be re-verified at launch.
Stage 5 — Hero user
For top operators: deliberate hardware patterns past the buyer-guide stage, multi-channel referral operations, reading the two-sided marketplace, and the privacy/security posture you can verify on your own machines.
Chapters
- Hardware tips: what earns most — CPU sweet spots, GPU tiers, used-hardware sourcing, scams to avoid, reliability over raw speed. Read →
- Referrals at scale: ambassador and community — multi-channel playbook, ambassador program, beta-tester role, FTC and EU disclosure rules. Read →
- Reading the marketplace: when demand is high — fill-rate history, geographic and capability-tier demand mix, seasonal cycles. Read →
- Privacy and security on your machine — sandbox guarantees, what data the agent sends, encryption, how to verify the agent's behavior. Read →
Before you start
You should have completed Stage 4 (fleet operations, advanced earnings, hardware ROI math, power and cooling, community, business basics). Stage 5 is for hero-user operators looking to push platform-level patterns to their limit.
What's after Stage 5
This is the final stage. After Stage 5 the best documentation is your own dashboard, the annual marketplace report, the community forum, and the security trust page. You operate the platform from here.
