Users can decide if they want to support the creator by opting in to share a fraction of their internet bandwidth. This is used to give real time access to the web to various companies that need to retrieve public web data or build Web AI Agents. The creator receives a share of the revenue these companies pay. Mellowtel does not collect user data or on which websites they are browsing. In fact, the idea behind Mellowtel is using enough resources to open an invisible sessionless environment (like an incognito tab) for a few seconds and use it to retrieve public web data for AI companies thay pay for it. And the creator receives a share of the revenue
In this way developers can focus on creating and improving their products and services, and keep them free and available for everyone. They can also reward their supporters with exclusive features.
Open Source and privacy driven
Mellowtel is open-source in order to guarantee transparency. Anyone can view the code on GitHub. For privacy reasons, users always remain anonymous.
Mellowtel is opt-out by default and users that want to support you have to explicitly opt-in. Users can change their settings at any time also independently from the developer's website or product by going on the user control page.
Earn and withdraw with no minimum threshold
The revenue you earn is calculated on the number of requests handled by the users that have opted-in to support you.
Cash out your earnings whenever you want with Paypal or Stripe. There is no minimum threshold for a withdrawal

Mellowtel is the AI-era solution to keep software and the internet free
As AI transforms the world and traditional ads decline, Mellowtel offers a new monetization model. It enables users to share a small portion of their bandwidth and resources to support creators and developers. AI companies pay for this to get real-time web access— essential for tools like ChatGPT search, Cursor or Perplexity research— and Mellowtel shares a portion of the revenue with the creators.
