Building something?
Your code already knows this.
Ponako takes the same requests your code already sends, so it keeps working. Point it here and requests go to a healthy computer with the model you asked for.

Why this isn't a random PC.
Before a computer is listed, its model file is checked against one approved copy — and re-checked while it works.
- 01The right model
Each model has one approved copy. Only that one counts.
- 02Checked on arrival
A computer must match before it joins.
- 03Checked as it works
If it stops matching, Ponako takes it offline.
Being checked means the model file matches. The computer that answers still reads your question, so keep secrets out of it.

Three steps
From one command to paid.
- 01Run one command
Paste it into a terminal on a Linux NVIDIA machine you can leave on.
- 02It sets itself up
The first download is large — about 16 GB. On Windows, only if Ollama (or LM Studio) is already answering. Close the lid and this box drops off.
- 03Get paid
You keep 85% of every finished job. Cash out to your bank once you reach $5.

One command
Put the computer to work.
Paste this into a terminal on a Linux NVIDIA machine you can leave on. The first download is large — about 16 GB. Then it starts asking for jobs. On Windows, only if Ollama is already running. Close the lid and the box drops off.
curl -fsSL https://ponako.com/install.sh | bashLinux, NVIDIA, one command. Windows if Ollama is already running. Pause by stopping the process.
Your machine stays yours
What we ask of your computer.
Ponako sends text in and takes text out. That is the whole arrangement.
- 01Nothing connects in
Your computer starts every connection. There are no ports to open.
- 02Questions in, answers out
No files, no terminal, no looking around your disk.
- 03You choose the hours
Pick when it works, and pause whenever you want the machine back.
Your computer sees the questions it answers, and Ponako removes obvious personal details before sending them.
