01 · Distributed GPU marketplace

Rent compute.
By the second.
From anyone’s GPU.

HAON PowerHub is a direct line between workers who need GPU time and miners who lend out their idle rigs. Prepaid credit, per-tick capture every 10 seconds, end-to-end encrypted tunnels. You pay only for the compute you actually consumed.

◦ 02 · Why we built this

The GPU shortage
isn’t a 2021 story.
It’s structural. It’s today.

Graphics cards power modern AI — chat, images, science. But the foundries that build them can’t keep up. The queue is years long, and the hyperscalers take the whole shelf. Here’s why, and what a marketplace can actually fix.

◦ Where it breaks

Five steps.
Three of them jammed.

Design
Nvidia / AMD
Two firms design almost every high-end chip on the market.
Bottleneck
Foundry
TSMC · Taiwan
A single foundry produces the leading-edge nodes. Any disruption ripples globally.
Bottleneck
Packaging
Advanced 2.5D / 3D assembly (CoWoS)
The step that fuses logic die and HBM. Capacity is structurally undersized.
Bottleneck
Memory
HBM · high-bandwidth memory
Without HBM3/3E the card can’t ship. The longest waiting line in the industry.
Final GPU
The card you buy
Every step above has to clear before one finished unit reaches a shelf.
01
Factories are concentrated.

Most advanced chips come from a single island (Taiwan). Any disruption — political, weather, logistics — ripples through the whole planet.

02
Memory is the choke point.

Even when the chip is ready, without HBM it can’t ship. Today, HBM is the longest waiting line in the industry.

03
Hyperscalers pre-book the supply.

Google, OpenAI, Meta, Amazon pre-buy entire production runs. The smaller player never sees the inventory — it’s sold before it’s made.

◦ What it costs you today

Three ways to get GPU time.
One of them adds up.

Run a local LLM

◦ The answer

There are millions of idle GPUs.
They just aren’t connected.

◦ The idle side

Your GPU sleeps most of the day.

Every gaming rig, creative workstation, and small studio has a GPU that sits at low utilisation for hours on end. HAON turns that idle time into income — you set the rate, you set the hours, you stop whenever you want.

◦ The demand side

People who need compute, can’t get it.

Researchers, artists, small businesses, students — none of them have a pre-booked slot in a data centre. HAON opens that supply to them, billed by the second, no contract, no minimum month.

02 · Protocol

Three moves.
Nothing else.

01

Miner rents out a GPU

Install the agent, set a price, run it. No open ports — the agent tunnels through a broker, NAT-friendly. Works on Windows, macOS, and Linux.

02

Worker opens a session

Pick a machine by GPU, runtime, and region. Stream Ollama, ComfyUI, or custom HTTP workloads through an end-to-end encrypted tunnel.

03

Ticks bill every 10s

Locked balance captures per 10-second tick. You pay only for consumed compute; the unused remainder refunds to your wallet when the session closes.

03 · Pricing intuition

Roughly
a third
of hyperscaler.

Miners set their own hourly rate. The marketplace clears where demand meets supply, and the platform takes 5% on consumed compute — nothing on the top-up.

04 · Two sides

Pick yours.

For miners

Idle GPU?
Cash it out.

Install the agent, set your hourly rate, walk away. One command, no port-forwarding, no static IPs.

Need a GPU?
Open a session.

Top up prepaid credit with Stripe, browse the marketplace, click open. Your workload is tunnelled to the chosen machine over an encrypted channel; billing fires every 10 seconds.

05 · Alpha posture

Small, honest,
still a test.

  • Payments

    Stripe test mode only. Use test cards (4242 4242 4242 4242). No real charges will clear.

  • Data

    Tunnels are end-to-end encrypted. HAON does not proxy, store, or inspect your workload payloads — only session metadata for billing.

  • Scope

    Single region (EU-WEST / Hetzner staging), ~5 runtimes, a small miner pool. Expect rough edges. Tell us about them.
