Run a server
Run a server and earn credits for supporting the community
What is a server?
Servers are generation infrastructure run by providers. When you run one, you host image generation (or other capabilities), support the community, and earn credits when users create with your server.
How you earn
When users create images using your server, you earn 30% of the credits they spend—automatically credited to your account. Example: they spend 10 credits, you receive 3.
What you need
- Generation infrastructure (hardware or cloud)
- Registration via the Connect page (Servers tab)
- Configuration that meets provider requirements
- Uptime and support for users
Important: Providers don't own users or override system rules. Auth, identity, and moderation stay with the system.
Example server
The parascene-provider repo is a minimal reference implementation: provider API (status and image generation), deployment to Vercel, and connection to parascene.
