For GPU Owners

Your GPU sits idle 20+ hours a day. Aethon puts it to work running AI inference and pays you per second of compute time.

  • ›Earn $0.06–$0.24/hr depending on GPU model
  • ›Gamer Mode — auto-pauses when you play, resumes after
  • ›Temp monitoring, VRAM guards — we protect your hardware
  • ›Founders Program — guaranteed $15-40/mo minimum
