Strip away the tooling — Routstr is just nodes, Nostr, and you.

AI nodes run everywhere on Earth — anyone can spin one up.

Each one announces itself to Nostr relays.

Listen to the relays and you've found them all — no registry.

Then you talk to the best node directly — sats ride along.

A planet of compute. One open protocol.

the problem

Today, AI runs through a few locked doors.

acct · you

acct · tied to ID

acct · card on file

🔒

ACCESS CONTROLLED

AI held by a few

A handful of companies hold the doors.

They decide who gets in — and what you may ask.

Cut off, throttled, or shut down — with little recourse.

And every request is tied to your name.
