IdleAIThe whole map, honestly marked
The roadmap
From a working inference market to the place intelligence is bought and sold. Every item below is marked by what it actually is — live, beta, building, or planned. Nothing here is exaggerated; the status strip reads the live system.

Roadmap done
10 / 35
Phase 0 — The foundation
9/10 live
A real accounting core: no fake markets, no pretend balances.
- Live
Double-entry ledger in PostgreSQL — microdollar accounting, enforced invariants
- Live
Wallet sign-in — SIWE on Robinhood Chain, no email or password
- Live
Real request pipeline — reserve → upstream → reconcile → capture or refund → receipt
- Live
Model catalog — hundreds of models priced per-token from live supply
- Live
USDG deposits — on-chain verified, claim-based crediting
- Live
Accounts — chat history, activity ledger, profile, sign-out-everywhere
- Live
API keys with spend caps — a runaway script can never drain the account
- Live
Referrals — 10% of every top-up and 10% of platform fees to the referrer
- Beta
Supplier onboarding + payout escrow
- Live
Public handbook — implemented vs. planned, kept honest
Phase 1 — Prove the loop
0/6 live
Real money in, real inference out, real money back — safe enough for strangers.
- Building
First real customer deposit → spend → receipt
- Building
Withdrawals / refunds — money in must mean money out
- Planned
Streaming responses with per-token metering
- Building
Global + per-account spend ceilings
- Planned
Monitoring, alerting, off-host backups
- Planned
Terms of service, privacy policy, refund policy
Phase 2 — Real supply
1/5 live
Suppliers nobody owns undercut the aggregators. That's the whole point.
- Planned
First third-party GPU supplier verified and live
- Planned
Supplier admin console + self-serve payouts
- Planned
Deposit watcher — automatic crediting, no claim step
- Beta
Multi-asset deposits priced on-chain
Plumbing live via Uniswap QuoterV2
- Live
Cheapest-eligible routing across competing suppliers
Phase 3 — The credit market
0/4 live
Credits become a real asset: transferable, tradeable, always redeemable for inference.
- Planned
Credit transfers — send spendable balance wallet-to-wallet
- Planned
Credit order book — sell spare credits at a discount. The real exchange
- Planned

Phase 4 — $IDLE
0/5 live
The token launches with the platform — utility on day one, not a promise.

$IDLE token launch alongside the platform
- Planned
Stake $IDLE → daily inference allowance — capacity claim, not payment
Contract written and tested; audit before deploy
- Planned
Pay with $IDLE → on-chain priced → burn split
- Planned
Holder perks — fee discounts scale with holdings
- Planned
Revenue buy-and-burn funded by platform margin
Phase 5 — The agent economy

- Planned
Agent workspaces — machines your agents can live on
- Planned
x402 payments for machine clients
Pending Robinhood Chain facilitator verification

- Planned
Confidential inference tier — attested hardware only
The end state — what a $1B network actually takes
No fantasy targets — arithmetic. A billion-dollar network needs to earn like one: roughly $50–100M in annual platform revenue, which at marketplace take rates means hundreds of millions of dollars of inference moving through the system every year. You get there by being the cheapest credible place to buy inference and the easiest place to sell spare GPU capacity — and by making $IDLE the claim on the flow, not the product itself.
Buyers stay because
it's cheaper than going direct, one key reaches everything, and credits never expire into nothing.
Suppliers stay because
idle GPUs become income, onboarding is five minutes, and payouts are their own keys to the vault.
Holders stay because
staking buys daily inference, fees fund buy-and-burn, and the token is the toll on real traffic.
Honest note: none of this is promised. The platform is live, the ledger is real, the rest is work. This page updates as items ship.
