io.net

About

io.net is a decentralized GPU cloud and DePIN (Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Network) built by Ahmad Shadid, Basem Oubah, Tory Green, and Saad Mohammed Alenezi to give AI and machine learning teams on-demand access to distributed GPU and CPU compute. The platform brings together computing resources from independent data centers, mining operations, and other hardware providers into one infrastructure layer. This lets developers deploy AI workloads without depending entirely on traditional centralized cloud providers. io.net is also expanding beyond GPU rental into AI inference and model access through io.intelligence, positioning io.net as an AI infrastructure platform rather than only a decentralized GPU marketplace. io.net Details Attribute Details Core Technology Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Network (DePIN) Blockchain Solana Native Token IO AI Platform io.intelligence Compute Resources GPUs and CPUs Primary Users AI developers, ML engineers, startups, enterprises, researchers Primary Use Cases AI training, fine-tuning, inference, model deployment, distributed computing Cluster Technologies Ray, Kubernetes, Containers, Virtual Machines, Bare Metal GPU Examples NVIDIA H100, H100 PCIe, A100, L40S, A40, RTX 4090, RTX 4080, RTX 3090 Ti, RTX 3090 Network Reach 130+ countries Key Features of io.net • • Provides lower-cost computing than standard cloud providers. • Supports AI and machine learning workloads such as model training, inference, and tuning. • Provides rapid, on-demand access to GPU power without the need to purchase hardware. • The network uses the IO token for payments, prizes, staking, and governance. • Works as a global GPU marketplace connecting users and GPU providers.
