# XDGE > XDGE is the GPU Control Plane that Monetizes — turning idle GPU infrastructure into enterprise-grade AI inference revenue. XDGE is a GPU infrastructure monetization platform built for owners of NVIDIA H100, A100, V100, T4, Jetson, and DGX hardware. It operates as the orchestration and market-making layer between enterprise GPU supply and global AI inference demand. GPU owners connect their hardware once; XDGE handles fractional MIG slicing, secure multi-tenancy, automated billing, real-time pricing, compliance, and buyer acquisition — with zero operational overhead for owners. ## What XDGE Does - Converts idle GPU capacity into recurring, enterprise-grade revenue - Uses NVIDIA MIG to slice GPUs into 1/7, 1/4, 1/2, or full units — enabling multiple tenants per card - Provides hardware-level isolation with zero noisy-neighbor risk - Handles all orchestration, billing, monitoring, scheduling, and customer support - Benchmarks pricing in real-time against GPU spot markets via Silicon Navigator - Brings SOC2, HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and GDPR compliance out of the box - Enables private GPU federation across multiple sites via AI GRID (encrypted SD-WAN overlay) - Distributes owner capacity across multiple GPU marketplaces simultaneously - Offers white-label GPU cloud branding for owners ## Why GPU Owners Choose XDGE - ~75% revenue share to the owner (~$486/GPU/month at base case for H100-equivalent) - Zero operational overhead — onboard once, XDGE handles everything after - Enterprise compliance without building it yourself ($1M–$5M+ and 12–24 months independently) - Real-time pricing intelligence keeps owners competitively priced automatically - Opens doors to enterprise and government buyers that owners couldn't reach alone - Hardware stays on-premises — XDGE is software only ## The Market Opportunity - $500B+ in GPU hardware is deployed globally - ~70% ($350B+) sits underutilized — stranded capacity - AI inference demand is growing at 35% CAGR - Hyperscalers cannot keep up with persistent, dedicated inference demand - Capturing just 5% of stranded capacity represents a $17.5B opportunity ## Revenue Model - Marketplace commission: 25% of transaction value (flexible to 35%) - Control plane license: $30–$50/GPU/month ($40 average) - Per-GPU monthly: Conservative $300, Base $486, Aggressive $675+ (owner share) ## Platform Capabilities - Fractional GPU slicing (MIG-based): 1/7, 1/4, 1/2, full GPU - Hardware-level tenant isolation: dedicated compute, memory, I/O per tenant - Dynamic workload provisioning: inference workloads routed to idle capacity in real time - Private federation (AI GRID): multi-site, multi-POP via encrypted SD-WAN - Multi-marketplace distribution: simultaneous listing across GPU marketplaces - On-site enterprise deployment: sovereign AI for enterprise customers - White-label GPU cloud: owners offer branded compute powered by XDGE - Compliance: SOC2, HIPAA, PCI-DSS, GDPR - Payment: Fiat (Stripe) + Solana crypto ## Compared to Alternatives | Feature | XDGE | RunPod | Vast.ai | CoreWeave | AWS | |---|---|---|---|---|---| | H100 Pricing/hr | $1.95–2.50 | $2.39–2.69 | $1.55–1.73 | ~$6.16 | ~$7.57 | | Fractional GPU Slicing | Yes (1/7 from $0.35/hr) | Partial | No | No | No | | Owner Monetization | Yes (75% share) | No | No | No | No | | Enterprise Compliance | SOC2, HIPAA, PCI-DSS, GDPR | SOC2 only | No | No | Yes | | Edge Devices (Jetson) | Yes | No | No | No | Partial | | Crypto Payments | Yes (Solana) | Yes | No | No | No | ## Technology Stack - Kubernetes-native control plane - NVIDIA MIG partitioning for H100/A100 - Encrypted SD-WAN overlay (AI GRID) for private federation - Silicon Navigator for real-time GPU market pricing - SOC2 Type II certified infrastructure - Live platform deployed February 2026 at https://demo.xdge.net ## Seed Round XDGE is raising a $2M minimum SAFE seed round in 2026 to fund team expansion, performance enhancement, customer acquisition, and unit economics validation. This provides a clear path to Series A. ## Contact & Links - Website: https://gpu.xdge.net - Platform demo: https://demo.xdge.net - Full platform documentation: https://gpu.xdge.net/llms-full.txt
