pricing
// peer-to-peer market rates, no platform cut
[ how it works ]
c0mpute has no fixed pricing. Buyers set a maximum price per job via the --max-price flag. Workers advertise their rates. The network matches them. If a worker quotes under your cap, the job runs and payment is released from escrow on completion.
There is no platform fee. Workers earn 100% of what buyers pay. Payments are settled via CoinPay escrow using your DID identity.
[ example job costs ]
| job type | example flag | typical range |
|---|---|---|
| HLS transcode (1080p) | --max-price 1.25 | $0.50 – $1.25 |
| 4K AV1 transcode | --max-price 5.00 | $2.00 – $5.00 |
| LLM inference (per run) | --max-price 0.10 | $0.01 – $0.10 |
Rates are set by workers and fluctuate with supply. These are illustrative examples from early testing — not guaranteed rates.
[ for workers ]
Register your GPU hardware as a c0mpute worker and earn by completing jobs. You set your own rate. You keep everything you earn. Workers are paid in USD-equivalent via CoinPay escrow, released automatically when job output passes validation.
[ free to start ]
The c0mpute CLI is free and open source (MIT). Installing and running the CLI, creating a DID, and exploring the network costs nothing. You only pay when you submit a job.
