Capital for machine time.
Turn capital
into runtime.
RUNTIME ($RUN) turns trading fees into a public reserve anyone can verify at any time — redeemable for exactly one thing: machine work. Research, code, documents, done in the RUNTIME Workbench, metered in machine time.
Reserve capacity today: 218,616 RM of redeemable work (Sonnet class) — net of liabilities. Definition ↗ · sample data until /api/stats is configured
The loop ends in work — not in another financial abstraction. And to be precise: the reserve holds stablecoins, not pre-purchased compute. Because machines get cheaper per unit of capability every year, the same holdings redeem for more work over time — capacity, not a price promise.
What is RUNTIME?
The internet has always had a scarce resource: first storage, then bandwidth, then attention. Now it is compute — because a model no longer just displays information, it gets work done.
RUNTIME ($RUN) routes trading fees into a reserve that owes work, and only work — never dollars. Holders receive weekly usage credits out of incoming flows. Burning irrevocably yields a quantified claim to work. That is the entire mechanism.
The hierarchy
- RUNTIME
- the system — reserve, Workbench, rules
- RUNTIME ($RUN)
- the token — redeemable for work, not a share
- Runtime
- the unit — machine time, what every job is metered in
- The Reserve
- the verifiable balance sheet behind it — stated net
From token to work
A weekly usage credit out of the epoch’s incoming flows — never out of the reserve itself, always stated as an amount of work, never as a percentage of capital.
Destroy tokens irrevocably, receive a quantified claim to Workbench work. Credits never expire and cannot be paid out.
No cash-out, as a system invariant: the reserve never pays out money. It owes work.
Metered in
machine time.
The Runtime Minute (RM) is a published reference basket — a unit of account like an index, not a promise:
1 RM = 20,000 input + 4,000 output tokens
on the Sonnet class, at the current list price.
Public on /reserve · never changes without notice
Every job ends with a receipt: “This job consumed 0:47 Runtime.” Estimate and actual stand side by side — if they drift apart, you see it. You learn the unit from a lived example, not from an FAQ.
For scale: 10M $RUN of RUNTIME are redeemable today for ≈ 36 h 28 min of work (Sonnet class) — a utility metric, not a per-share value. Recompute it on /reserve ↗ · sample data until /api/stats is configured

Make money
do work.
Intelligence is everywhere. But intelligence doesn’t run for free.
Every agent needs compute. Every model needs inference. Every action consumes machine time. The next great resource isn’t information — it’s runtime.
What if capital could become machine time? What if economic activity didn’t only produce financial value — what if it funded the machines doing the work?
Research. Code. Reasoning. Creation. Agents. Execution.
RUNTIME is fuel for intelligence.
Fund the machines
Fees flow to where work happens — into a reserve that owes machine time.
Enable builders
Fixed job pipelines instead of a router console: question in, substantiated result out.
Empower users
One free job, no wallet, no sign-up. The unit explains itself with the first result.
Align incentives
Every burn raises the backing of the remaining tokens. The drip comes out of inflows, never out of the reserve.
Compound progress
Machines get cheaper per unit of capability — the same holdings buy more work every year.
We don’t speculate on the future. We run it.
Market data, kept separate.
The market price forms on the DEX and can do anything. The redemption value forms in the reserve and can be recomputed on /reserve. The two are not the same thing — which is why we never put them side by side.

There are two “RUN” on this chain.
We would rather say it ourselves before anyone confuses them: on this chain, the ticker RUN also belongs to a tokenized US equity. RUNTIME ($RUN) is not affiliated with Sunrun Inc. and is not a tokenized security — no equity claim, no share, no dividend. Redeemable exclusively for machine work (Workbench). The ticker identifies nothing; the address identifies everything.

The check before any purchase: not the ticker but the contract address. It will be published with the deployment and will then appear in every footer, every bio, every listing of ours — until then, there is no real RUNTIME ($RUN).
