I want my model to be sold, monthly, as an API, or i want to be able to sell access to my model without people actually downloading it.. i have 6 people interested @ $200/mo it would really, really help me if i could give them access, but not allow them to download - simply because once downloaded.. you really don't need to keep paying. I provide monthly updates on everything, better realism, better anime, better VAE, better embeddings etc

I program in php, sql and python, mostly - is it possible?

Or is there another way i can .. do this?

i was thinking about setting up VAST.AI machines and giving them a login to the webUI but i think if so.. then they will easily find the file manager and boom, all files exposed.
