Find the cheapest way to pass a Turing test in a neighbourhood. Nobody knows you have been assisted.

companies

Trust swarm of devices to buy computing power, network traffic and API access.

Make your central servers work on more important tasks.

Decentralised infrastructure scales better.

Features

We see the machine economy coming. The code we have now is a mere attempt to explore it, and clear things up. Treat it like the very first word a child says. It could be the least meaningful word overall, yet the most important one for the child development.
