Vaporkernel turns the world's idle computers into a decentralized cloud. Deploy workloads on real hardware, globally distributed, radically cheaper.
No data centers. No vendor lock-in. Just a global mesh of real hardware, orchestrated and secured at the kernel level.
Anyone with a machine and an internet connection installs the Vaporkernel agent. It runs silently, leasing only the resources you're not using.
Our control plane tracks available hardware worldwide, matches your workload to the best nodes, and handles scheduling, failover, and networking.
Pick your specs, choose a Linux image, and deploy. You get an SSH endpoint in seconds. It feels like any cloud—except the infrastructure is everywhere.
We assume every host is compromised. The architecture is designed so that even a malicious provider with root access can't touch your data.
Guest workloads are hardware-isolated at the CPU level. No process on the host can read your instance memory.
Every volume is encrypted before it touches the provider's disk. Keys are managed off-host and never persisted locally.
All traffic flows through encrypted tunnels. Providers can see bandwidth usage but never inspect the contents.
Standard Linux workloads. Familiar tooling. A fraction of the cost because you're running on real-world hardware, not corporate margins.
Lease your idle CPU, RAM, and storage to the network. Set it up once, earn passively. Your machine stays usable—we only take what you're not using.
One command. The agent benchmarks your system and registers with the network.
It runs in the background. Dynamic throttling keeps your machine fast for your own use.
Get paid for the compute you're not using. No hardware investment required.
Written in Rust. Hardware-level virtualization. Kernel-space networking. We're not wrapping someone else's cloud—we built the hypervisor.
Vaporkernel is in active development. Get on the list for early access—whether you want to deploy or provide.
