The Artificial Super Intelligence Alliance (ASI) has announced that ASI:Cloud has officially exited beta and begun processing live enterprise‑grade AI workloads, signaling a pivotal expansion of decentralized AI infrastructure aimed at developers, researchers, and large organizations.
ASI:Cloud is a decentralized AI compute platform that provides permissionless access to high‑performance GPU infrastructure, enabling teams to run inference and AI workloads without relying solely on traditional cloud providers such as AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud.
Unified AI Infrastructure for Modern Workloads
One of the platform’s core differentiators is that it consolidates compute, networking, and billing under a single interface, reducing the complexity enterprises often face when splitting workloads across multiple vendors. Instead of juggling separate contracts and billing statements, developers now have one unified system for GPU access, usage tracking, and payments.
The platform provides OpenAI‑compatible inference endpoints, supporting major open‑source models such as Llama 3.3 70B, Qwen 3 32B, and Gemma 3 27B. Pricing for inference starts at about $0.07 per million input tokens, a dramatic reduction compared with hourly GPU instances on centralized cloud infrastructure where a single H100 instance can cost between roughly $3.90 and $6.98 per hour before additional bandwidth and storage fees.
This model helps lower barriers for early‑stage AI deployments and experimentation, while offering a cost‑efficient alternative for enterprises facing skyrocketing cloud costs and capacity bottlenecks.
Visionary Leadership and Strategic Partnerships
Ben Goertzel, CEO of SingularityNET and a driving force behind the ASI Alliance, described ASI:Cloud as more than just a product launch it is “operational infrastructure that brings sustainable decentralized intelligence closer to reality.”
The platform was developed through a collaboration between SingularityNET (which supplies AI infrastructure and model optimization) and CUDOS (which operates enterprise‑grade compute infrastructure). The partnership unifies the backend compute resources with user‑facing APIs, billing, and access tools.
Luke Gniwecki, Head of AI Compute Product at CUDOS, highlighted the platform’s ability to break vendor lock-in and eliminate capacity shortages common in centralized clouds, a pressing concern as demand for AI compute continues to rise.
Decentralized Access and Payments
Unlike traditional cloud services, ASI:Cloud enables developers to authenticate via Web3 wallets, removing the need for conventional Know‑Your‑Customer (KYC) processes. Users can pay for services using FET tokens, stablecoins, and (in the near future) standard fiat payments. This wallet‑first approach reflects the alliance’s vision of making AI infrastructure more accessible, transparent, and decentralized.
Web3 wallet authentication supports seamless onboarding and aligns with broader trends in decentralized computation, where transparency and sovereign control over resources are emphasized.
Backdrop: Market Demand and Computational Strain
The launch of ASI:Cloud comes amid global shortages in GPU allocations. Nvidia’s latest GPUs are reportedly sold out through 2026, with extended waitlists for many enterprises. This scarcity has intensified the search for alternative compute solutions that can satisfy growth in AI applications.
Market analysts also project that the decentralized computing market could grow to as much as $45 billion by 2035, reflecting sustained demand for compute solutions that can scale beyond the traditional cloud paradigm.
ASI Alliance: Driving Decentralized AI
ASI:Cloud is part of a larger initiative by the Artificial Super Intelligence Alliance, a collaboration formed by Fetch.ai, SingularityNET, and CUDOS to accelerate research and deployment of decentralized AI tools, with long‑term goals that include advancing toward Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) and, eventually, Artificial Superintelligence (ASI).
Earlier in 2025, the alliance also saw the Phase I launch of its first enterprise‑grade NVIDIA GPU cluster in Sweden, deployed in partnership with data center firm Conapto providing a physical foundation for scalable AI compute and helping support ASI:Cloud’s backend infrastructure.
What’s Next for ASI:Cloud: Exploring Decentralized AI Compute and Scalable GPU Solutions
Developers and researchers interested in exploring ASI:Cloud can visit the official platform at asicloud.cudos.org, with detailed documentation hosted at docs.cudos.org.
As enterprises continue to seek cost‑efficient and scalable AI compute alternatives, ASI:Cloud’s launch represents a significant step toward democratizing access to high‑end GPU power potentially reshaping the broader AI deployment landscape.
