MFabric · public beta · signed Windows installer

Own the AI. Split the cost. Keep your data.

MFabric stitches the machines you own - a laptop, the box in the closet, the big machine you and your friends bought together - into one private AI fabric. You bring your own keys; your prompts, files, and models stay on your hardware. Chat with a model you already have on disk, approve helper computers from one console, and check a privacy meter that shows exactly what stayed on your machine and what went to your own provider - with a downloadable receipt that never contains your key. The mfab command line is in the box too. Anything experimental is clearly labeled and stays off until you turn it on.

Optional: release + security notes by email. No tracking pixels, never shared, and not tied to an in-product account or identity.

Split the cost, share the machine

Can't afford the big GPU? Split it.

The machines that run the biggest AI models cost thousands. You don't have to buy one alone. Chip in with friends, put the machine at one person's place, and everyone chats with it from their own computer — owned by your group, private to your group.

~$500 each
Five friends. A used two-GPU tower (~$2,500). Fast answers from the mid-size open models.
Yesterday's flagship hardware is today's group buy.
~$1,000 each
Four friends. A compact AI box with huge memory (~$4,000). Runs the big open models at home.
The sweet spot: small, quiet, sits on a shelf.
~$1,600 each
Six friends. A workstation-class GPU (~$9,500). Runs almost anything open, with room to grow.
Pro hardware at a group-buy price.

Compare: five people paying $20 a month for AI subscriptions spend $1,200 a year — and own nothing at the end. The same money buys the machine. It's yours, it gets better every time the open models get better, and nothing your group types ever leaves the machines you own.

1 · One of you hoststhe owner

The machine lives at one person's place. They run the host, load the models, and decide who's in.

2 · Everyone joinsapproved

Each member installs MFabric and pastes a join link. The owner clicks approve — and can remove anyone in one click. It's their machine.

3 · Everyone chatsshared

Members talk to the big models from their own laptops. The machine takes turns, like a shared workstation — for a group chatting through the day, you'll rarely wait.

Straight talk: it's one conversation at a time, not a data center. And it's easiest today when the machines share a network — a house, an office, a dorm. Our simple across-town setup guide is next on the list.

Why people trust it

Privacy isn't a setting here. It's the architecture.

Most "private AI" still puts a vendor between you and your data. MFabric keeps us out of that path entirely, asks before anything leaves your machines, and writes you a local receipt so you can check for yourself.

01 Your keys, full stop

Bring your own key to any provider you like. We never hold it, see it, or proxy your calls - the request goes straight from your machine to your provider.

02 Data stays put

Prompts, files, and models live on hardware you control unless you explicitly choose your own provider. Storage helpers see sealed blocks; trusted compute helpers require separate approval because they may handle model-internal tensors. Nothing joins uninvited.

03 Correct first, clever second

Normal work runs the proven way. The clever tricks - sharing memory across machines, splitting big models - are off until you turn them on, and they step aside the instant anything looks wrong.

04 No access code to try it

The peer beta is a free download. Verify the signed installer or zip hash, join a host you control, and run on your own network. Optional onboarding is help, not a requirement.

Defaultsafe floor

Runs on your machine, gives right answers, and only uses helpers you've approved. This is what you get out of the box.

Advanced previewsopt-in

Bigger tricks for bigger jobs: keep long conversations alive across machines, split a model too big for one box, or send heavy work to a stronger machine. Each is off by default and labeled with exactly what it can and can't do.

Campaignqueued

Long or batch jobs go into a queue across your machines - they resume if interrupted, and you can pause or cancel them any time.

What works today

Here's what's actually ready to put in your hands.

Install it, invite your other computers, approve them from one screen, load a model you already have, and chat. That core works today. The bigger tricks are in the box too - labeled as previews and experiments, because that's what they are.

The core, today

Chat with models you already have

Load a model from your own disk and talk to it - no account, no cloud. Words appear as they're generated when the model runs on your machine, and still stream when the answer comes from another machine you've approved. In the current published build, answers arrive complete instead; streaming ships with the next signed refresh.

Verified foundation

Pool the machines you trust

Your laptop, a desktop, a rented GPU - MFabric moves work and data between them over encrypted connections that shut off rather than fail open. Apps built for the fabric use the pool; everything else just sees your normal machine.

Proven foundationManual setup
Manual opt-in

Borrow a bigger brain when you need one

Point MFabric at a stronger machine you're allowed to use - the desktop at home, a GPU you rent by the hour - and hand it the heavy job. Setting up a worker takes a few deliberate steps on purpose; this is not an open marketplace for strangers' computers.

Receipts, a privacy meter, and a CLI

The console shows where every answer went - what stayed on this machine and what left to your own provider on your key - and lets you download a privacy receipt with no key inside. Files stay private too: the assistant only sees folders you've explicitly granted. And for the terminal crowd, the mfab command line is included.

Receipts stay localCLI included

Faster chat for smaller models

Smaller models get a tuned engine that's measurably quicker; bigger models automatically use the standard engine. Faster where we measured it - not a universal speedup. The published installer still uses the standard engine for everything; the quicker one arrives with the next signed build.

Capacity beta

2Big2Fit: run a model one box can't hold

The planner tells you whether your machines together can hold a model none of them can hold alone. Full split-model serving is an advanced preview - real, but not one-click yet.

Planner nowNot default
Honest beta

Long conversations that don't forget

Long chats normally push the oldest parts out of memory. This keeps them alive on your other machines instead of throwing them away. Today that path is slower than staying local, so it's opt-in and labeled a preview. We'd rather tell you than dress it up.

Advanced PreviewNot a "faster" claim
Training beta

Put idle devices to work

Run a small training test across your machines today. Full fine-tuning across helpers is a power-user lane; the goal is using hardware you already own, not a speed promise.

Diagnostic nowNot a speed claim
Receipts, not vibes

Don't take our word for anything.

Every claim on this page is something you can check: a signature Windows verifies, a fingerprint you can compute, a receipt you can read. That discipline is the product.

5 platforms
Windows · macOS · Linux · Android (control surface only) · trusted private GPU hosts.
The published easy path is the signed Windows installer. macOS and Linux use the manual beta package today; self-contained cross-platform packages remain unlinked until platform signing and release QA are complete. Android watches and controls; it does not compute.
Signed + checked
The Windows installer is signed by Sfiniti AI Inc.; the peer zip has a published SHA-256 fingerprint.
At install, Windows asks one question: is this machine the host (your command machine) or a helper joining a host?
What's inside
The installer ships the role picker and the full host console alongside the helper peer runtime, setup scripts, and user guide - never model weights, account tokens, or user data.
The manual zip carries the peer package and the mfab command line (run it with Python, no install needed). Your host still decides what each helper peer may do before it joins the fabric.
Getting in

Free public beta. Two roles to know.

You can download the peer today. Onboarding is still available for people who want help wiring a host, testing multiple machines, or running preview capacity paths.

Role · Host

Your command machine

The host holds policy, credentials, and model ownership, approves peers, and decides which jobs they may join. It is the center of your fabric.

Role · Peer

A helper device

A peer contributes bounded storage, workhorse execution, or training capacity - only what the host allows, revocable any time. On Windows, run the signed installer and choose Helper/peer; on macOS or Linux, use the peer package below.

Join as a peer

Two ways in - pick the one that fits your device.

Your host hands you a join link. That link is the secret handshake that connects a new device to your fabric. On Windows, the installer first asks whether this machine is the host/controller or a helper peer. Choose helper/peer to paste the join link. On macOS, Linux, or if you just like doing it by hand, the manual package is two commands.

1

Windows · the easy way

Download mfabric_peer_setup_0.1.3.exe and run it. Before you click through, make sure Windows shows the publisher as Sfiniti AI Inc. - that's how you know it's really ours. The first screen asks Host/controller or Helper/peer. Choose Helper/peer to install this device as a peer and paste your host join link. Choose Host/controller on your command machine to open the local host console.

2

macOS · Linux · manual

Prefer to do it yourself? Unzip the peer package into a normal folder like ~/mfabric_public_beta, then run these two commands (drop your join link where it says so):

# macOS / Linux
cd mfabric_public_beta
python3 -m pip install -r requirements-agent.txt
python3 mfabric_peer_bootstrap.py --join-url PASTE_HOST_JOIN_LINK --detach

# Windows, the manual way (no installer)
packaging\windows\START_MFABRIC_PEER.cmd

Say yes from your host

Back on your host dashboard, click approve. The host decides exactly what this device is allowed to do, and you can pause it or kick it off any time. You're always the one in charge.

Verify your download

Make sure you got the real file.

A hash is just a fingerprint for a file. Run one command, and if the long code it prints back matches the one below, your download is genuine and untouched. The Windows installer is also signed, so Windows itself will show Sfiniti AI Inc. as the publisher.

Questions & straight answers

What people ask before they download.

We'd rather tell you than dress it up.

What leaves my machine?

Nothing, unless you add your own key. If you choose to use an external provider, that request goes straight from your machine to your provider - MFabric never holds or proxies it. You can download the privacy receipt after any session; it contains no key and no prompt content, just a log of what stayed local and what route was taken. Check it yourself and see.

Is it open source?

No. MFabric is free closed-source software in public beta. The manual beta package is not an open-source release and grants no open-source license. Trust comes from a signed publisher, published SHA-256 fingerprints, explicit outbound routes, local privacy receipts, and the ability to run without an Sfiniti account.

Why should I trust you?

You shouldn't take our word for it. Check the SHA-256 hash against the fingerprint on this page before you run anything. Download the privacy receipt and read it - there is no key in it. The installer is signed by Sfiniti AI Inc. so Windows can verify the publisher independently. The receipts and hashes are the trust mechanism, not our assurances.

What do I need to run it?

The published easy path is the signed Windows installer. The current macOS and Linux path is the manual beta package with Python 3.11 or later. You also need a compatible model already on disk or your own API key for an external provider. MFabric does not ship model weights.

Does it phone home?

MFabric sends no product telemetry. The update check runs only when you press the button and makes a standard HTTPS request for the public manifest; the web host may retain ordinary access and security logs. The email list is opt-in and is not tied to an in-product account or identity.

What is "Advanced Preview"?

Advanced Preview features - like context retention - are receipt-backed and opt-in. They are not default promises and are not turned on unless you deliberately try them. Each one carries a receipt showing what was measured and under what conditions. "Advanced Preview" is an honest label, not a marketing upgrade.

How do I report a problem?

Email [email protected] with the subject line "MFabric issue". Include the output of mfab doctor --json, or python mfab_cli.py doctor --json when using the current manual package. Never include an API key, join link, credential, private path, or prompt content.

Can my friends and I share one machine?

Yes - that's the split-the-machine setup. One of you hosts it, approves each member, and can remove anyone in one click. It answers one conversation at a time, like a shared workstation, and it's easiest when the machines share a network today. Nothing the group types leaves the group's machines unless a member uses their own provider key.

Is it really free?

Yes, the public beta is free. A business tier may come later; personal use stays free. No credit card, no access code, no account required to download and run it.

Straight talk

What it isn't - yet.

We keep this list honest on purpose. If it's not here, we're not claiming it.
