import Mellowtel from "mellowtel";
let mellowtel = new Mellowtel("<PUBLIC_KEY>");
(async function() {
await mellowtel.initBackground();
})();
// Show a disclaimer/message to the end-user and if they
// agree to join the network, call these methods:
await mellowtel.optIn();
await mellowtel.start();
// You need to call these methods just the first time.
// After the user has agreed to join, Mellowtel will
// automatically start at every browser session unless
// you explicitly decide not to (or the user opts out)
Users can decide if they want to support the creator by opting in to share a fraction of their unused internet bandwidth. This is used to give real time access to the web to various companies and non profits that need up to date information. The creator receives a share of the revenue these companies pay.
In this way creators can focus on creating and improving their products and services, and keep them free and available for everyone.
Mellowtel is completely open-source in order to guarantee transparency. Anyone can view the code on GitHub. For privacy reasons, users always remain anonymous.
Mellowtel is opt-out by default and users that want to support you have to explicitly opt-in. Users can change their settings at any time.
The revenue you earn is calculated on the number of requests handled by the users that have opted-in to support you.

"Mellowtel changed the way I think about sustainability in tech. Now, my users' everyday browsing helps fund my work—so I can focus on creating more content and building new tools and features for them"
The exact amount varies based mainly on three factors: (1) the amount of active users you have, (2) how many of those opt-in, and (3) their geolocation (US, France, Italy, Spain and China have higher payouts). But as a rough approximation, 1000 active extension users who opt in should bring around $50 per month. As we scale and optimize the earnings will increase. The revenue split is 55% for the developer and 45% for Mellowtel.
