Hi, welcome to TensorDock!
We're building a compute marketplace. You run our software to list your GPUs on our marketplace, and you get paid when they get used!

We just need bare metal access to install our hypervisor. Then, you set your prices, and that's it! Our software will orchestrate VMs on your hardware, and you'll receive a payout through Stripe Connect or bank transfer every month based on your usage.
Requirements
We require a gigabit connection (shared between all servers at one location) with 100 forwarded ports OR a dedicated IP for each server.

Each server must have:
  • 16 GB of RAM per GPU
  • PCIE 4.0 x8 / 3.0 x16 bandwidth per GPU
  • At least 8 CPU threads per GPU. Please make sure that the CPU does not bottleneck the GPU (Ryzen 5 5600X equivalent or better).
  • A graphics device that will not be passed through to customers (e.g., an old GPU, integrated graphics, or onboard graphics)
  • At least one SSD (NVMe -- U.2 or M.2 form factors). Ideally, it should be a datacenter-grade SSD, but any SSD that is TLC with a DRAM cache is acceptable.
IMPORTANT: The host node must be hosted in an actual data center to ensure the best possible uptime.

Higher quality hardware will result in higher earnings and customer retention. Customers will pay extra for GPUs with adequate bandwidth (e.g., PCIE 3.0 x16) that are not CPU-bottlenecked.
How much will GPU hosts earn?
Since hosts can set their own pricing, this varies on several factors, including quality of hardware, location, and uptime. We operate on a revenue-share model, so we're only paid when you are. Our 25% fee covers software development, customer support, software development, payment processing, everything essential to generating demand for your hardware.

That being said, you can reach out to sales@tensordock.com for the most up to date numbers on utilization and average price.
Downtime Penalties
By submitting the form, you have read and agree to TensorDock's Supplier Hosting Agreement. You understand that significant penalties will apply to network, power, and defective GPU-induced disruptions. Maintenance events must be planned two weeks in advance, and removing any hardware with active customers from our platform requires one month of notice.
