# IX Scout **Real-time global map of every Inference-X node** [![Status](https://img.shields.io/badge/Status-Beta-blue.svg)]() [inference-x.com](https://inference-x.com)
--- ## What is IX Scout? IX Scout is a live global map showing all publicly registered Inference-X nodes — their location, models, hardware, and availability. ## Features - **Live map** — geographic view of the IX network - **Anonymous by default** — nodes show region, not exact location - **Hardware stats** — GPU model, VRAM, performance tier - **Model availability** — which models each node serves - **Latency** — estimated response time from your location ## Register your node ```bash # Add to your inference-x startup ./inference-x model.gguf --serve 8080 --scout-register # Or via config echo "SCOUT_REGISTER=true" >> ~/.inference-x/config ``` Registration is opt-in. No tracking, no telemetry. ## Status Beta — map functional, registration API stable. --- *Part of the [Inference-X community](https://git.inference-x.com/inference-x-community)*
