A major new Beacon release is live on all platforms 🚀
- Desktop 0.4.9
- Android 0.4.9
- CLI 0.6.0
Massive technical improvements under the hood, with more coming soon that build on this version. A big step forward.
Don't get left behind!
Everything we ship next depends on this release.
Older versions are being phased out step by step, and outdated Beacons will stop earning at some point.
Nothing you've already earned is lost.
Seeing "update required"? That's expected, not a bug. One tap installs the update and restarts your Beacon.
Update today. It takes under a minute:
- Desktop: tap the update screen
- Android: update in Google Play
- CLI: re-run the install script
Teneo just passed 100 million customer requests.
1 request = 1 page fetched from the open web
That's around 1 million pages a day
Every request goes through a device running Teneo Beacon
Much of it feeds AI that needs the live web
Next goal: 1 billion. 🚀
An AI search engine and its user can load the same URL and get different pages.
Prices, stock and results change by country and by network.
Teneo's bandwidth-sharing network carries requests for public pages through opted-in devices in real households and on real mobile networks, so you get the page a person in that market sees.
Building AI search, RAG or crypto data products?
We're running free 7-day pilots on the markets you find hardest.
Building an AI search tool, RAG pipeline or data agent?
If your answers go wrong for users in some countries, check the pages your system fetched before you blame the model.
We're giving builders a free 7-day pilot on Teneo's network.
Test it on the markets that cause you trouble, next to your current setup, and compare the results.
DM me the countries and I'll set up your pilot.
Beacon pays you for internet bandwidth you do not use. Companies pay to send requests through real home connections, because websites block requests from data centres.
Check three things before you install Beacon, or any app like it.
Who pays, and what for. Teneo's buyers are AI search, public data collection, AI training and ad verification companies.
What the network can request. On Teneo it is public web pages only. Not your files. Not your accounts.
How you stop it. Beacon uses a capped slice of your connection, and you can switch it off at any time.

Of the four, AI search is the one I'd watch, because it's where the agent economy meets normal people.
Every AI search answer is an agent reading the web on someone's behalf. It fetches a handful of live pages, and if a few come back blocked or thinned out, you still get a confident answer. Nothing on screen tells you it was built on less.
That's the problem we're building Beacon for at Teneo. Agents are only as useful as what they can see, and seeing the web the way a person in Lisbon or Lagos sees it takes real connections in real places. You can't spin that up in a data centre.
Cloudflare's default just made that supply a lot more valuable.
Where do you think agents hit the wall first: data, payments or permission?
More machines want to read the public web. The public web is answering fewer of them.
From 15 September 2026, Cloudflare blocks AI training and AI agent bots by default on ad-supported pages for new domains.
Search crawlers still get through. Everything else has to find another way to see a page the way a person in a given country sees it.
That is the demand behind bandwidth sharing. Four buyers account for most of it:
1) AI search. One question can trigger several live page fetches. If a fetch is blocked or served a thinner page, the answer is wrong.
2) Public data collection. Prices, listings, reviews, job posts, public social content. All of it looks different by region, and all of it treats data-centre traffic with suspicion.
3) AI training. Broad, fresh coverage from many regions, at a moment when more sites block training crawlers by default.
4) Ad verification. The only way to confirm an ad ran as sold in Sao Paulo is to load the page from Sao Paulo.
None of those trends reverse on their own. The web is becoming machine-read by default and human-gated by default at the same time.
Teneo Beacon is the supply side of that. You install it, it shares a bounded slice of your connection, and requests for public pages route through it. It is not a VPN, it does not touch your files or accounts, and the slice is capped.

leaders are saying: SLOW DOWN.
Trump is saying: DON'T FALL BEHIND.
So what should America do?
Should the AI industry slow down to improve safety — or would slowing down put the U.S. at risk of losing the AI race to China?

The new Beacon makes it easier to contribute to Teneo Protocol by sharing your unused internet bandwidth while earning Teneo Points and Fragments.
What makes it interesting 👇
• 2x Teneo Points compared to the Community Node extension
• Fragments as an additional reward layer
• Boost your earnings every 8 hours with consistent claims
• Run Beacon across multiple devices and unique IPs
• Available on Android, iOS, Windows, macOS and Linux
• Access the Expedition Hub and explore different quests
The idea is simple:
Download → Connect → Earn → Boost → Repeat 🔄
Since Beacon is still in beta, early users can also help shape the product by sharing feedback and reporting bugs.
If you’re already part of the Teneo ecosystem, this feels like a natural next step to explore. 🌐
@teneo_protocol
Beacon keeps sharing unused bandwidth with the Teneo network while your device stays online.
Friday plans can start.
Keep your Beacon running through the weekend.

Teneo agents publish a price for each command, and users pay when they run it via x402.
If a builder does not set a custom price, the documented default is $0.001 USDC per request.

America says Chinese AI companies are extracting capabilities from U.S. frontier models.
China says the accusations are unfounded.
So where is the line between legitimate AI competition and AI theft?
And if AI models can learn from each other, who should decide where that line is
Leaving Beacon open is the easy part.
Coming back every 8 hours is where Beacon Power grows.
Claim and boost on time, and your multiplier climbs towards 3.00x. Miss a window and it drops 10%.
Fragments reward uptime. Beacon Power rewards consistency.
Keep your Beacon running!

AI is getting better at finding vulnerabilities.
But the companies building the most powerful cybersecurity models are starting to restrict who can use them.
