Darkbloom apps for Mac providers compared
Several people have built tools for Darkbloom providers. We make Bloomkeeper, so read this with that in mind; the descriptions of other tools come from their own READMEs as of September 28, 2026. None of these are made by Darkbloom except the console.
Darkbloom console (official)
The web console at console.darkbloom.dev: account balance, earnings, the provider leaderboard, models and withdrawals. It’s the source of truth for money; everything else reads from it or from the provider on your Mac.
Bloomkeeper (this site)
- Mac app, macOS 14+, Apple Silicon. MIT license.
- Live and confirmed earnings per model and hour, base rewards shown separately, network demand per model, hardware health.
- Manager that holds the best-paying model for your Mac and recovers from failed loads and stalls; private phone access over Tailscale; up to ten Macs in one view.
Darkbloom Monitor (justin-schroeder)
- Native Swift menu bar app, macOS 14+.
- Status light in the menu bar, balance and hourly earnings split by base reward and model, hardware metrics, start/stop/restart, and a multi-Mac list.
Darkbloom Dashboard (SplittyDev)
- Swift app for macOS 15+, iOS 18+ and visionOS. MIT license.
- Network health, machine monitoring, provider statistics, projected earnings, warm-up and smart restart, live logs, network chat, and a load generator that spends your API key.
Darkbloom Control (knightfolk)
Native menu bar companion with telemetry, model cards and lifecycle controls behind safety checks, plus built-in chat. Formerly also called Darkbloom Monitor.
darkbloom-manager (benbuschmann)
Python command-line manager, MIT license. Keeps one model warm and switches when public network pressure and prices show a sustained advantage and the provider is idle. Publishes scoring graphs online.
Darkbloom Live & Stats (jordglob)
Experimental local web dashboard, MIT license: live gauges, electricity cost against revenue with price forecasts, multi-model warm-up and trust-drop alerts.
Which to pick
- Just want to know it’s earning: Darkbloom Monitor or Bloomkeeper.
- Want model choice handled for you: Bloomkeeper’s Manager or darkbloom-manager.
- Want iPhone or Vision Pro: Darkbloom Dashboard (Bloomkeeper’s phone view works in any browser over Tailscale).
- Care most about electricity cost: Darkbloom Live & Stats.
How Bloomkeeper helps
Bloomkeeper is free and open source. If you try it alongside another tool, don’t run two model managers at once: they will fight over which model runs.
Questions
Is there a dashboard app for Darkbloom providers?
Yes. Besides the official web console, community apps include Bloomkeeper, Darkbloom Monitor, Darkbloom Dashboard and Darkbloom Control for Mac, plus darkbloom-manager (command line) and Darkbloom Live & Stats (local web dashboard).
Can I run Bloomkeeper with another Darkbloom manager?
Monitoring apps can run side by side, but run only one tool that switches models, or they will undo each other’s changes.
