CO-CREATION

Join the Team · Roles & Standards

CVIN is in co-creation stage: the product runs, the data grows, revenue has just started. We are looking for two kinds of people: revenue-share partners (closed deals, agreed split) and pure contributors / volunteers (time in exchange for bylines, track record, and position in the ecosystem). Both are welcome. Rules first, in writing.

How the co-creation stage rewards: through revenue share, bylines and tracked attribution rather than a fixed salary — each role's reward line says exactly what. Revenue splits in writing (email confirmation is the contract), every contribution logged in a public ledger, bylines in the contributor list. The rules themselves are co-created — if something looks wrong, propose a change.All seats are open.

Two ways to participate

A · Revenue share

For people who can directly bring deals or supply (BD, channels, data-source operators). You close, we split as agreed in writing; annual renewals count on the same terms.

B · Contributor / volunteer

For people who believe in the project and want a byline and a track record (content, translation, community). Contributions are ledgered, and if your area later produces paid usage, attribution enters the share pool. Join and leave anytime.

Open roles (5 directions, all open)

01

BD / Channel Partner (regional)

revenue share

Acquisition is the only bottleneck. The registry, the price index, the verification reports — all live. What is missing is people to put them in front of data centers and buyers. A machine cannot knock on a door.

Hard standards
  • Can get directly to decision-makers at GPU data centers / rental platforms / bulk buyers (not via public support channels)
  • Bring at least 3 local contacts you can actually meet (a list is enough to start — no prior deal required)
  • Can explain cvin.org's three products (registry / price index / verification report) in your own words
  • Comfortable with a deal-first, share-on-close collaboration (see reward terms below, agreed in writing)
RewardRevenue share on closed deals (ratio agreed in writing per person; email confirmation makes it effective). Repeat annual renewals count on the same terms.
02

GEO content contributor (Chinese platforms)

contributor / volunteer

Chinese LLMs (Doubao, Kimi, Yuanbao) already cite cvin.org, but the Chinese corpus is still owned by stale CSDN/Zhihu content. We have the data and the material; we need people with account reach to publish it.

Hard standards
  • At least one account on these platforms with a content history and no violations
  • Fact-based writing only: cite site pages and real numbers; no "best / No.1" superlatives
  • At least 2 posts per month (topics come from /answers and the weekly snapshot — no need to invent them)
  • Byline model: articles belong to the author; cvin.org only requires citation
RewardVolunteer: byline + a named contributor page + tracked attribution for signups/payments your content drives, entering the future share pool.
03

English content / localization

contributor / volunteer

All 30+ zh/en page pairs so far were translated by the initiator alone — coverage has plateaued. English pages face the dollar world directly (x402 payments, enterprise procurement): the most valuable corpus we have.

Hard standards
  • Native-level English or long-term working proficiency (judged by a 200-word trial translation, not credentials)
  • Solid grasp of GPU / compute / blockchain terminology (H100, SXM, lien, UCC-1 — translated correctly)
  • Follow the site glossary: terms stay consistent across pages, no freelance rewrites
  • At least 2 pages translated or proofread per month
RewardStarts as volunteer: byline in the contributor list. If the language market produces paid usage (API keys / reports), attribution is tracked and shared.
04

Data-source operator (data center / rental platform / reseller)

revenue share

Automated collection has hit its ceiling (20+ platforms). Incremental supply can only come from operators listing prices and registering devices themselves — the single growth channel on the supply side.

Hard standards
  • Real operating devices or real quotes on hand (serial numbers or platform links we can verify)
  • Listings are public: price data visible to everyone, no dark pools
  • Register at least 10 devices to start (L1 or above, see /en/levels)
  • Update quotes at least weekly
RewardRegistration is free; deals routed through cvin.org are revenue-shared. Operators scaling from 10 to 50 devices get separate terms.
05

Standards Council — 7 seats (independent)

council seat · unpaid

The Council is where "neutrality must be structure, not statement" lands. All 7 seats are vacant. Charter v1.0 is to be amended by the first members who join — they are not being asked to sign it.

Hard standards
  • No equity / employment / non-compete ties to the initiator (disclose and recuse if any)
  • A publicly verifiable track record in any of: cryptography, standardization, compute supply/demand, asset finance, ITAD, public interest
  • Seats are independent of commercial interests: they cannot be bought, carry no compensation, and the initiator is capped at 1/7 forever
  • Participate in at least one RFC vote per quarter
RewardUnpaid. The seat itself is the track record: governing a global GPU identity standard from zero to one. Details: /en/council.

How to apply

Email hi@cvin.org (subject: "Co-creation · role name") or Telegram @briantian. Three things only:

① which role; ② what you bring (lead lists / accounts / past work / device volume — anything with evidence counts); ③ preferred track (revenue share or volunteer). No CV templates, no degree checks — only what you bring.

Applications enter the decision log (anonymized); everyone gets an answer either way — co-creation starts at the application step.
