Mining is only effective if the pool you’re using is performing well. The Pools page helps you determine if the electricity you’re consuming is generating the revenue it should.

Even if you’re a small-scale hobby miner, you’ll eventually find yourself looking to expand. Starting off on the right foot and leveraging sub-clients is a great way to keep things flexible so Foreman can grow with you.

This video covers the two types of sub-clients and how they can be leveraged (sites or co-located customers).

Keeping track of who’s doing what when running a large team is invaluable; otherwise, you’ll have no way to tell who changed the pools on the miners while everybody was asleep. The Audit Log exposes all actions taken against every device, and with Foreman being the helm of your operation and BTC Tools removed from the equation, your security auditors will finally be happy.

Foreman lets you build fully custom roles and permission sets to promote collaboration while keeping users in check. This video covers how to invite your team and how to give them limited access, as appropriate.

One of the foundational pieces of any large mine is automation and alerting. Running BTC Tools scans daily and hunting for problems doesn’t scale. Foreman’s triggering engine lets you create custom rules and logic to automatically address common miner problems while also letting you get immediately notified if something goes wrong.

Foreman is more than just miner management: it’s facility management software. Infrastructure gives you a way to integrate auxiliary equipment at your mine to provide you with full control (example: smart PDUs, Antspace cooling tower, managed network equipment, power phases, etc).

Foreman provides a robust reporting engine that provides financial statements, payout auditing, power consumption, uptime, and more. Get them automatically delivered to your inbox as frequently as you’d like to help keep investors happy and the accounts on the team resting easy knowing that you’re being paid fairly.

To improve operator productivity, Foreman’s built in ticketing system lets technicians track their work while sharing a common backlog of tasks that need to be completed.

Pickaxe is our agent that runs on a PC or server local at your facility. It’s responsible for collecting statistics from each miner and making them available on your private Foreman dashboard.

This video covers how to navigate Pickaxe, what to look for when you’re seeing “Pickaxe Offline”, and how to perform an Interactive Add to build your Site Map while also gathering serial numbers.

Site Map provides your operators and technicians with a visual representation of the mine, empowering them with a live, interactive heat map that shows where miners are located and how temperatures are distributed.

The Issues page provides an aggregated view for operators and technicians to quickly identify problems affecting the mine. This video covers how to navigate it and silencing issues as they’re addressed.
