Running racks? You need a license.Arclode exists because AI shouldn't run only inside billion-dollar data centers. That was never a ban on racks — it's a refusal to let them be the only option. If you operate at that scale you're welcome here, on exactly the same terms as everyone else: same rate per job, same share, no priority lane. What we ask for is a license, so we know whose hardware it is and where it runs.Apply for a licenseDo I need one? →The obvious question"Doesn't this contradict the rest of your site?"Fair question. The footer a bit further down this page says compute for the people, not billionaire datacenters — and we mean it. The argument was never that racks are evil. It's that a handful of companies own nearly all the compute the world's AI runs on, and everyone else rents it back from them at whatever price they set.A licensed operator doesn't change that math in their own favour. They're paid the same for a job as the laptop that could have taken it, they don't get routed to first, and they don't push anyone off the network. What we won't do is let data-center capacity in quietly — unlabelled, competing against somebody's home computer while looking exactly like one. That's what the license is for.Why it existsA gate, not a tierSame pay. Same rules.A licensed operator earns exactly what everyone else earns: the same share of the same job, 95% to the machine that did the work. There is no volume rate, no priority routing, and no preferred lane. The license buys accountability, not advantage.We need to know whose machines these are.Someone contributing their own computer is accountable because it is their own computer. At data-center scale that link breaks — rented instances, shared address space, hardware that belongs to a third party. The license puts a name and an address back on the capacity.It costs nothing.No fee, no minimum commitment, no different revenue split. If it cost money it would be a tier, and tiers are how a network quietly stops belonging to the people running it.Do I need one?If any one of these is true, yesThese are the bright lines in the Provider Agreement. One is enough — they don't stack. If none of them describes you, you don't need anything from this page: just plug your machine in and start earning.A data center or coloThe machines live in colocation or data-center premises rather than a home or office.A hosting networkYour public egress IP sits in a hosting, cloud, or colocation ASN.Rented instancesThe capacity is cloud or GPU instances you rent or lease by the hour or month.Data-center acceleratorsA100, H100, H200, B200, L40S, L4, or AMD Instinct MI-series parts.More than five machinesMore than five nodes under common control — counted per operator, not per account.Hardware you don’t ownYou operate machines that belong to somebody else, or you run hosting as a business.Running one machine at home, or a few?

Enterprise Hosting LicenseYou run the capacityFor operators whose machines cross any of the lines above: colo or data-center premises, a hosting ASN, rented or leased instances, data-center accelerators, more than five machines under common control, or hardware you don't own.Approved operators join the same pool as everyone else and are paid the same share of the same jobs. Nothing about the license changes your rate, your routing, or your position in the queue.Reseller / OEM LicenseYou sell it onThe Provider Agreement doesn't let you resell Arclode capacity or bundle it into something you sell. This license is the carve-out from that rule — for agencies, platforms, and hardware vendors who want Arclode inside their own product.Tell us what you'd be building and who you'd be selling to. Same deal: free, reviewed by a person, granted case by case.
What happens after you applyA person reads it. We may come back with questions about ownership or where the machines actually sit. Approval is discretionary — we can say no, and we can suspend or withdraw a license later if what's running stops matching what was described. There's no fee at any point, and no queue you can pay to skip.
Apply It's free, and it doesn't change what you earn. We ask for this so we know who's running the hardware and where — nothing more.
For colocation or data-center premises, rented or leased cloud/GPU instances, data-center-class accelerators, more than five machines under common control, or hardware you don’t own.
Optional — it just helps us match the application to an existing account.
We ask because the rules apply per operator, not per account — this is how we tell whether several sets of machines are under common control.
