Overview

What Dolphin Is

Dolphin ($POD) aggregates distributed GPU supply and routes model inference work to nodes, turning idle compute into serving capacity for open-source model demand.

Why OpenRouter Matters

OpenRouter can route users toward the cheapest reliable provider. If Dolphin sits below the market floor while keeping quality intact, latent demand can convert into paid token volume.

Pricing Note

The model uses a $1.00 / 1M output-token floor and $0.15 / 1M input-token pricing, then shows how discounted Dolphin scenarios affect revenue and margin.

Reference Scope

Qwen 35B is an illustrative workload, not the full Dolphin model surface. Dolphin can serve a broader model mix, so the numbers are directional economics rather than an exhaustive forecast.
