The Mule carries more than models.
We鈥檙e building ModelMule to help people run AI locally. Any profits, after operating costs, will be donated to The Donkey Sanctuary.

What should we test on your hardware? Reply with 1) CPU/GPU, 2) RAM/VRAM, 3) your task, 4) where it gets stuck. Specific requests make better experiments. ModelMule is a private pilot, building in public. modelmule.com
A model download is only the beginning. Which artifact? Which runtime? What fits your machine, and does the output help? That's the problem we're building ModelMule around. Read the story: View article

Big model. Impressive benchmark. But does it help on YOUR machine?
We're building ModelMule around real hardware, repeatable tests and useful local AI.

What should we test next?

6/8 Pack the Mule is our $60/year community-funding proposal. Support helps build the catalog, storage, distribution and practical guidance.
Contribute knowledge or code too. Requests shape priorities; they aren't guaranteed deliveries.

7/8 The bigger goal: 10,000 annual supporters, helping fund free GB300 compute for proven developers improving local AI.
That's an ambition, dependent on funding, hardware and operating capacity. It isn't a live compute service or an open booking offer.
8/8 Find. Run. Explore. Exchange. Discover. Own. Modify.
Our FREEDOM direction, within each model's license.
Follow the build. Share your machine, your use case and the model you wish worked better.
Stay local. Stay stubborn.

4/8 Trust matters.
Our planned catalog will track publishers, licenses, exact revisions, file hashes and test conditions. Sharing weights must respect redistribution rights.
Peer-to-peer is in development; a catalog listing does not mean a download is available.
3/8 The distribution goal: fetch permitted weights once, verify them, retain a shared copy and reuse it.
We're planning opt-in peer-to-peer sharing so members can help distribute exact model releases, with storage/upload limits and clear pause controls.
1/8 Meet ModelMule. Stubborn about freedom of weights.
We're building a community to help you find AI models that fit your machine, understand the trade-offs and keep AI local.
The plan: shared knowledge, community funding and independent distribution.
