The network that works for you
Edge can cut your digital infrastructure bill by up to 90%. How the community-powered network delivers cloud services for less, and works for its users.

Every action you take on the internet profits someone. In roughly half of all cases, that someone is Google, Amazon, or Microsoft. The infrastructure that powers the modern web is concentrated in the hands of a few, and the economics flow in one direction: away from you.
A network that shares revenue#
Edge changes this equation. By allowing everyone to contribute to the network using everyday devices, Edge shares revenue with the people who power it. Your laptop, desktop and phone are machines with spare capacity that can be put to work, earning you money while contributing to a faster, greener internet.
Good for business#
This model is especially compelling for businesses. Every office is full of machines that sit idle overnight: desktops, workstations and servers that spend their evenings doing nothing. With Edge, every one of those desktop PCs could be a revenue earner, quietly offsetting your hosting bills while the office lights are off.
Up to 90% cheaper#
Edge is also fundamentally more efficient than traditional cloud infrastructure. Because data travels less far (it’s served from nearby devices rather than distant data centres), the network consumes less energy, requires fewer network hops, and delivers content faster. The result is infrastructure that costs up to 90% less than the incumbents.
Join the pioneers#
We’re currently onboarding pioneering clients who understand the value of this approach: businesses following in the footsteps of global media companies and e-commerce brands who have already made the switch. If you want to reduce your infrastructure costs, earn from your idle hardware, or simply move to a platform that’s faster and greener, Edge is the network that works for you.
