The last revolution was metered in kilowatt-hours.
This one is metered in tokens.
AI Power Grid meters generative compute — text, images, video, and workflows drawn from GPUs anyone can plug in, with settlement moving on-chain. The meter stays honest, and no one owns the off switch.
Build on The Grid
Agents, automations, art, video, workflows — running on community GPUs today. Pick one and ship.
Generate Images
Create AI art with z-image-turbo, FLUX.2 Klein, and Krea 2 Turbo. Curated open image models.
aipg.art →Run Agents & Workflows
Open-source LLMs powering your agents, automations, and AI workflows. gpt-oss, Qwen3, DeepSeek — no corporate worldview baked in.
aipg.chat →Build with the API
Drop-in for OpenAI and Anthropic text, image, and video endpoints. Same SDKs, community-powered backend. Free daily quota.
API Docs →Earn with your GPU
Run an LLM, image, or video worker. Earn from the current hourly AIPG payout rail. No bond required to start; future bonding policy is not finalized.
Run a Worker →Text, image, and video generation through familiar APIs. Three lines to get started:
For onchain builders
The AI generation layer crypto is missing.
Onchain apps need generative AI for agents, games, wallets, NFT tools, social apps, creator markets, and autonomous services. Today they either call a closed AI vendor, run their own GPU stack, or stitch together fragile one-off providers.
AI Power Grid gives them a crypto-native alternative: familiar generation APIs, distributed GPU supply, transparent worker payments, and a path toward validator-backed quality.
Text, image, video, workflows
One network for chat, agents, image generation, video generation, and reproducible creative pipelines.
Familiar APIs at the edge
Builders use OpenAI-compatible endpoints and the SDKs they already know, without becoming GPU operators.
Crypto-native underneath
Base settlement, worker rewards, model and workflow registries, validator evidence, and a path toward trustless claims.
AI shouldn't have a doorman.
$20 a month before your first line of code. A trial that expires. A card you don't have. Closed AI is full of velvet ropes. AIPG is built so the people who can pay fund the people who can't — and so the network can never be shut down by anyone, including us.
Free, and it stays free
Sign up, get a key, build. No trial counting down. No reminder email asking for your card. The free tier is the product — not a hook.
Pay it forward, automatically
When you pay for higher limits, you're not just buying compute — you're funding the free tier for someone shipping their first agent in a country where $20/mo isn't on the table.
Private. Unbiased. Yours.
Open models, no corporate worldview baked in by a policy team you've never met. On the confidential tier, even the operator running the GPU can't read your prompts.
Plug in your GPU. Power the Grid. Earn.
The network runs on real hardware that real people plug in. Two ways to take part: run a Generator to contribute compute and earn, or a Sentinel to help secure it. Any modern GPU works — the software figures out what your card can do.
Generator
Contribute compute and earn from the current AIPG worker payout rail. Text, image, video, upscaling and more — the software auto-detects your GPU and serves what it can handle.
Sentinel
Secure the Grid: re-check that Generators were honest, run safety screening, and host part of the model library — with your stake behind it. Real economic security, not vibes. A consumer 24GB card (a used 3090) is plenty.

How The Grid Works
Community GPUs run AI models. Smart routing sends your request to an available worker. Workers currently share an hourly AIPG budget according to recorded work.
GPU Workers
Gaming rigs to data centers — any GPU can join the network and start earning by running AI models.
Smart Routing
Requests automatically route to the best available worker based on model, load, and latency.
Token Rewards
Workers earn from an hourly AIPG budget according to recorded generative work. Multi-asset payouts are planned, not live.
A network nobody can shut down
In DevelopmentEvery centralized AI you've used can be unplugged by a company, a regulator, or a Stripe ban. AIPG is moving entirely on-chain — smart contracts handle routing, payments, and verification. The team builds the protocol. The protocol runs itself. Once it's done, even we can't turn it off.
- ◆On-chain job anchoring with cryptographic proofs
- ◆Validator nodes submit assignment-bound evidence; bonding and rewards come later
- ◆Automatic payments via smart contracts
- ◆P2P network with no single point of failure
Privacy at the hardware level
Coming with BlackwellYour medical notes, your legal docs, your agent's API keys — they shouldn't be readable by the stranger running the GPU. NVIDIA Confidential Computing on Blackwell (B200/B300) encrypts your workload in GPU memory and proves cryptographically it ran in a secure enclave.
- ◆Hardware-isolated Trusted Execution Environment (TEE)
- ◆GPU memory encrypted end-to-end during inference
- ◆Cryptographic attestation proves genuine secure enclave
- ◆Run sensitive workloads on untrusted infrastructure
Open Source, Open Doors
All code, models, and workflows are public. No vendor lock-in. No black boxes. You can inspect everything, run your own instances, and build on top of what exists.
Open development means every improvement benefits everyone. Bug fixes, performance gains, and new features spread across the network immediately.
No Vendor Lock-In
Switch providers anytime. Run your own instance. Your data, your choice.
Faster Innovation
Every contribution benefits the whole network. Improvements compound across all users.
Community Owned
The network belongs to the people who build it and run it. No single entity controls AIPG.
Global Access
Same API whether you're in Buenos Aires or Bangalore. No waitlists, no geographic restrictions, no approval process.
Earn with Your GPU
GPU owners earn AIPG today for running text, image, and video jobs. Real work, publicly verifiable payouts. Your hardware serves actual users instead of sitting idle.
Useful Work
Rewards flow per job served to a real user. GPUs do productive work instead of arbitrary calculations.
Fair Launch
AI Power Grid launched with no VC, no presale, no pre-mine. Community-first from day one.
Dec 2023Building the Grid
Launched aipg.art for image generation, aipg.chat for LLM conversations, and the first GPU worker network. Public beta shaped by community feedback.
2024Base L2 Migration
Migrated to Base L2 with 150M fixed-supply AIPG token. Deployed StakingVault and core infrastructure contracts. The passive staking program later ended; withdrawals remain available.
Q1–Q2 2025Grid SDK & Dashboard
Released the Grid SDK for developers. Developer console and API explorer went live at console.aipowergrid.io. On-chain model registry for worker discovery.
Q3–Q4 2025Streaming API
✓ Live NowReal-time token streaming with OpenAI and Anthropic compatibility. Familiar SDK integration, fast image generation with z-image-turbo, and text-to-video via LTX-2.3.
Q1 2026Validator Evidence & Worker Trust
Grid-issued text assignments, targeted probes, scorecards, and a non-economic quorum lifecycle. P2P dispatch and worker bonding remain gated prototypes, not production claims.
Q2 2026Validator Distribution & Partner Nodes
Package an easy validator release, prove independent multi-validator operation, and harden the path toward trusted partner-run core nodes.
