ARCLODE

Compute for the people, not billionaire datacenters.

Arclode is a compute network built from idle computers around the world — not billion-dollar datacenters. Run AI and rendering jobs on it for pennies a job, or earn by putting your own PC to work. One account, one balance.

One network
Millions of computers sit idle. Arclode turns them into one.
One elastic compute mesh, stitched from machines people already own.Instead of building another datacenter, Arclode puts the spare power in everyday computers to work — one network you can call for render, AI, and big-model jobs, without the big-tech datacenter.Idle Mac, AMD, and Nvidia machines join one pool. Every job is placed by latency-, price-, and trust-aware scheduling onto the node that fits it best.Capacity is contributed, not provisioned — the mesh grows and shrinks with the machines that are online, and routing keeps work near where it runs cheapest and fastest.Hub & node coordinates from GeoNames (CC‑BY‑4.0).
How it works
You send a job. It finds the best machine. You get the result.
Job in, matched to a machine, run, returned — in four steps.No servers to rent, no setup. Send a render, an image, a video, a 3D model, or a chat reply, and the network handles the rest.A signed job spec is capability-matched to a node, executed in a sandboxed runtime, and the result comes back verified — streamed from queued to done.

Your work is protectedHow am I protected?Your work is protected, and you choose how locked-down it gets — three levels, from everyday shared compute to sealed hardware you can verify yourself.OpenBest-effortShared, everyday computeYour job runs on everyday machines shared across the network — the fastest, most affordable way to run work. It is best-effort compute, so it makes no privacy promise.OpenWhen to use itReach for Open when speed and the lowest cost matter and the work isn’t sensitive — drafts, previews, renders, and non-sensitive batch runs.TrustedVetted & under agreementMachines we vet and stand behindFor work that matters more, your job runs only on machines Arclode vets and stands behind — known operators, under agreement. More accountability, same simple experience.TrustedWhen to use itChoose Trusted when you want accountability: jobs run only on operators Arclode vets and stands behind, under agreement — with the same simple experience.PrivateYou can verify itSealed hardware you can verifyThe most locked-down choice. Your job runs sealed inside secure hardware that cryptographically proves exactly what ran — so you can check it yourself, not just take our word for it.PrivateWhen to use itPick Private when you need to verify, not just trust: the GPU signs an attestation of what ran, so the output is tamper-evident and attributable — and you can run entire payloads.Explore private & enterprise compute
