True Hardware Backing
One-time buy-in funds physical server nodes racked in commercial colocation. You own the equity capacity — not a monthly promise subject to repricing.

01 — Architecture
Infrastructure you hold equity in
Three properties separate a cooperative rack from a metered API: the metal is bought, the queue is yours, and the fleet grows with the membership.
Deterministic Throughput
Dedicated member queues via private LiteLLM / OpenAI-compatible endpoints with guaranteed priority tokens. No shared-rate throttle at peak hours.
- EndpointOpenAI-compatible
- QueuePriority, per member
- BatchingContinuous
Autonomous Expansion
Buy-ins from new member tranches automatically trigger node expansion; off-peak idle compute subsidizes monthly maintenance.

02 — Economics
Transparent economics
The math, without the markup. Corporate APIs price per token and reprice at will; a cooperative prices once and amortizes the metal.
| Line item | Corporate APIper-token markup | reeche co-op$200 buy-in + $18/mo |
|---|---|---|
| Input tokens / 1M | $0.55 | included |
| Output tokens / 1M | $2.19 | included |
| Monthly floor spend | $0 → usage | $18 dues |
| Rate limit / throttling | tiered, repriceable | priority queue |
| Model deprecation risk | vendor schedule | member vote |
| Data residency | vendor-controlled | co-op rack |
| Ownership of hardware | none | 1/100 equity |

What 12 months on a co-op rack costs

Illustrative. Token caps apply only to priority-pool usage; off-peak inference is unmetered.
