Business model breakdown
Trigger: what makes them buy now?
Avoid rented cloud AI: per-token costs, rate limits, model retirement and data leaving the network.
Workflow: what inputs become what output?
Plug in workstation, point apps at its OpenAI/Anthropic-compatible API; models routed by id across CPU/GPU memory.
Economics: what it saves and how it charges
Hardware sale: pay once instead of per-token bills; software engine tuned to the hardware.
Distribution: how it reaches customers
Direct online shop (shop.lucebox.com) with GitHub/Hugging Face open-source community.
