We use your chip and memory to estimate each model’s speed and memory fit. Your choice stays in this browser.
How accurate is this speed estimate?
It is a broad estimate for planning. A complete speed test on your Mac is more accurate. A model is left out when the catalog says it needs more memory than your Mac has.

Building your ranking…
We are combining your Mac speed, recent model activity, and Darkbloom’s listed prices.
This ranking updates when you change your Mac or history period.

Select one or more models. We check the estimated memory fit before we calculate a result.
Estimated provider payout for each hour kept ready
Each card uses a different amount of recent activity. The unit stays hourly. The 24-hour illustration multiplies that hourly range by 24.
The same Mac time is counted only once.

Darkbloom adds the available token counter when a coordinator request finishes. The dashboard does not convert those bursts into a false live rate.
How the estimate is calculated
For one model, we use Darkbloom’s capacity data to measure the share of loaded provider time that was running. We combine that share with Darkbloom’s listed price and the estimated speed of your Mac.
For a selected model set, we use the separate public provider list only to describe whole-provider activity and recent model focus. We count each provider’s time once.
A single model is a clear leader only when its low estimate is above the high estimate for every other eligible model.
How single-model work time is measured
time the model was running ÷ time the model was loaded
Invalid updates and long gaps are left out. Missing time is not treated as idle time.
How the work value is estimated
The estimated range uses input price, output price, the model’s recent OpenRouter token pattern, Mac speed, and recent running time. The result is for one hour that the model stays ready.
Token patterns used in the estimate
OpenRouter token totals give an input and output pattern for each mapped model. A weaker mapping makes data confidence lower.
Limits of a model-set result
The public provider list reports one recent model. It does not measure how several loaded models divide a Mac’s speed. The ranking is useful for direction, but your actual payout can differ.
