Supply chain / Decentralised
Akash Network
An open marketplace where independent providers bid to host containerised workloads, including GPU jobs, in a reverse auction run by the buyer's requirements.
- Type
- Programme
- Where it sits
- A way to rent capacity from independent hosts instead of a single cloud, with the buyer choosing between competing bids.
- Constraint
- The network page itself shows a modest pool, 62 providers and 423 GPUs when fetched (self-reported), so large reservations may not fit.
- Maturity
- Early commercial
What we checked
- Users can run models through an API service, deploy containers via a console where providers bid, or join as a provider. (source)
- The site reported 62 active providers, 423 GPUs and 15,000 vCPUs on 2 October 2026 (self-reported). (source)
