Thousands of ordinary GPUs, swarming as one distributed AI network — cheaper than the cloud, and paying the people who power it in ETH.
AWS charges AI companies $10–40 per thousand images. The GPU doing the work earns nothing — its owner earns nothing, and the margin goes to a data center nobody owns. SWARM redistributes it: idle GPUs coordinate into one vast pool, AI companies tap it through a single endpoint, and the people who contribute their hardware get paid for every verified job. No data center. No central owner. The network is the swarm.
One pipeline ties the two sides together — and every step keeps the operator in control while only genuine work gets paid.
An AI company sends a workload to one API endpoint — a base-URL change from their current stack.
SWARM matches the job to a capable node and streams it down one outbound connection — never reaching in.
The job executes in an isolated container with no network and no view of files. It sees the GPU, nothing else.
The network verifies before anyone is charged. Verified work settles in ETH to the operator's wallet.
Install one app. It measures your hardware and — only when you allow it — runs AI jobs in the background while you're away. Watch earnings tick up in ETH and withdraw to your wallet.
Install the SWARM node client, create your wallet in-app, and your machine can start earning. Windows first; macOS and Linux follow.
Requires an NVIDIA GPU and a free SWARM account (created in the app). This is a testnet beta and isn't code-signed yet — Windows SmartScreen may warn; click More info → Run anyway. Nothing runs until you press Start.
A network that runs on strangers' machines and handles real money only works if it's trustworthy by construction.
The app explains exactly what runs, shows running/stopped at all times, and stops instantly. Never hidden, never background-silent.
No outside code touches a machine except inside an isolated container with no file access and no network. That boundary is the product.
Results are verified before money moves in either direction. Earnings come from genuine compute — settled transparently on-chain.
