 Project N.O.M.A.D. (Node for Offline Media, Archives, and Data; "Nomad" for short) is a project started in 2025 by Chris Sherwood of [Crosstalk Solutions, LLC](https://crosstalksolutions.com). The goal of the project is not to create just another utility for storing offline resources, but rather to allow users to run their own ultimate "survival computer".
 
-While many similar offline survival computers are designed to be run on bare-minimum, lightweight hardware, Project N.O.M.A.D. is quite the opposite. To install and run the available AI tools, we highly encourage the use of a beefy, GPU-backed device to make the most of your install.

See the [Hardware Guide](https://www.projectnomad.us/hardware) for detailed build recommendations at three price points.
 
 Since its initial release, NOMAD has grown to include built-in AI chat with a Knowledge Base for document-aware responses, a System Benchmark with a community leaderboard, curated content collections with tiered options, and an Easy Setup Wizard to get new users up and running quickly.

 ### What is the System Benchmark?
 The System Benchmark tests your hardware performance and generates a NOMAD Score — a weighted composite of CPU, memory, disk, and AI performance. You can create a Builder Tag (a NOMAD-themed identity like "Tactical-Llama-1234") and share your results with the [community leaderboard](https://benchmark.projectnomad.us).
 
 Go to **[System Benchmark →](/settings/benchmark)** to run one.
 
+### What is the Early Access Channel?
+The Early Access Channel lets you opt in to receive release candidate builds with the latest features and improvements before they hit stable releases. You can enable or disable it from **Settings → Check for Updates**. Early access builds may contain bugs — if you prefer stability, stay on the stable channel.
