Salad Technologies

Salad activates the latent resources of idle gaming PCs on the web’s most trusted "AFK-for-pay" marketplace. Our users (or “Chefs”) turn a wealth of dormant processing power into games, DLC, gift cards, subscriptions, and more. Every year, our users redeem over 50,000 digital and real-world items, and contribute thousands to charities across the globe. More than 400 million gaming PCs sit inactive for 22 hours a day. With Salad, that’s 11 minutes of pay to every minute of play. With a quarter million users already earning, we’ve made substantial inroads into a mostly untapped global market. Our community is powered by blockchain protocols and high-trust infrastructure to ensure our Chefs chop through any task—while remaining safely anonymized. Soon we’ll democratize financial access through SaladPay, a payment platform that takes Salad Balance web-wide. In five years’ time, “Pay with Your PC” will be ubiquitous. In a world hungry for computational resources, every connected computer is vital. Our workload-agnostic infrastructure layer is ready-made to tackle our partners’ high-performance computing tasks. Whether the job’s P2P bandwidth sharing, AI inference training, applied edge computing—or anything else that takes hard crunching—it will be no match for our ever-ready kitchen.
