Pilot cohort · applications open
Mecone publishes continuously-updating prices for assets that never had one: pre-IPO companies, GPU rental, city rent, inflation. Creators in the program make short videos about what those things are worth, and get paid for every one they post.

02 · The subject
OpenAI does not trade on a public exchange. It still has a price, and that price moves when a model ships or a funding round leaks. The same is true of an hour of GPU time, a one-bedroom in San Francisco and next month’s inflation print. Creators in the program explain those moves to people who have never seen them priced.
03 · The work
The program pays for videos people actually watch. Nothing that reads as an ad, and nothing that tells anyone what to trade.
01 · Film
Post on TikTok, Reels, Shorts or X. Start a new account built around prices, or bring the one already running.
02 · Use the desk
The content desk holds tested hooks, scripts and chart clips exported from live benchmarks. Film from it, or use it as a starting point.
03 · Get paid
Every approved video earns $25. Videos that travel earn view bonuses, up to $1,000 a month. Payouts run every two weeks.
Four formats from the desk
Format 01
Show something with no public price. Ask the viewer to guess. Reveal the benchmark.
Sample hook: OpenAI does not trade. It still had a price this morning.
Format 02
Take a benchmark that moved this week and explain the news behind the line.
Sample hook: An hour on an H100 got cheaper this month. Here is why.
Format 03
Ask strangers what something is worth, then show them the live number.
Sample hook: What do you think Anthropic is worth right now?
Format 04
A talking-head explainer on how something with no market gets a price at all.
Sample hook: San Francisco rent has a live price. Here is what it did this month.
04 · Support
A coach reviews the last five videos and picks the next five hooks with each creator.
New hooks and chart exports every week, pulled from whatever moved in the benchmarks.
Skits, street interviews and faceless voiceovers all work. The desk sets the topic. The creator sets the style.
Trade hooks, share what worked and ask the Mecone team questions directly.

05 · The rules
A benchmark is only useful if people trust it enough to trade against it. Every video in the program follows the same five rules, and the desk reviews each one before it counts toward pay.
