# B3IQ

A neocloud that belongs to its customers.

This page explains where B3IQ fits inside B3. For machines, go to [b3iq.org](https://b3iq.org). For APIs and guides, go to the [B3IQ docs](https://docs.b3iq.org).

## What Is B3IQ?

B3IQ is a neocloud that belongs to its customers. It builds, hosts and operates every node as a single AI cloud. Owners finance the fleet. Teams rent the compute.

You buy a bare-metal GPU machine, and B3IQ hosts it or ships it to you. The machine is yours. You choose how it runs.

## Where It Fits

B3 is AI you own, from bare metal to agents. The metal is B3IQ. [B3 Labs](https://b3labs.org) makes agents to measure. The rails are [B3OS](/protocol/b3os), [AnySpend](https://anyspend.com) and [Basement](https://basement.fun): a way to act onchain.

## For Developers

In bare-metal mode the machine is yours to use, with root access: SSH in, run your own models and point your API keys at it. Your keys reach your machines and nothing else. Those machines sit behind an OpenAI-compatible API, so the official OpenAI SDKs work with a new base URL and key. There is no shared pool or third-party fallback. If your machines cannot serve a request, it fails.

You need a machine on your account first. Calls without an owner-scoped key return an empty model list.
