# Revenue Streams of Grafilab

**1. GPU Bare Metal Rent & Run**

Grafilab generates revenue by offering GPU rental services tailored for various computational needs, including AI model training, data rendering, cloud gaming, and other intensive workloads.

* **Rental Jobs:** Renters can choose from centralized (CePIN) or decentralized (DePIN) GPU resources to meet their specific requirements.
* **Contributor Job Earnings:** Between 50% to 70% of job earnings are distributed to GPU contributors, depending on whether the resources are centralized or decentralized. Earnings are calculated based on factors such as service duration, GPU performance, and package type.
* **Use Cases:** This service addresses diverse industry demands, including:
  * AI model training and inference.
  * Data rendering and visualization.
  * Cloud gaming infrastructure.
  * AI Apps and Agent markets.

**2. Inference API Subscriptions**

Grafilab offers seamless access to powerful AI models through its Inference API subscription plans, driving a significant portion of revenue.

* Subscription Plans: Users subscribe to access GPU resources and popular Large AI Models (LLMs) for tasks like inference, natural language processing, and computer vision.
* Contributor Revenue Sharing: GPU contributors receive up to 50% of the API subscription revenue, incentivizing them to provide consistent and reliable computational resources.
* Scalable Revenue: This model ensures ongoing revenue through recurring subscriptions, supporting both Grafilab and its contributors.

**3. AI App Store Monetization**

The AI App Store is a one-stop marketplace where users can explore, access, and utilize various AI apps and agents developed via the Grafi Co-Builder platform.

**Bundled Subscription Program:**

* Similar to a Netflix-style offering, users subscribe to access multiple AI apps and agents in a single package.
* Revenue Distribution: Developers earn based on the usage of their AI apps or agents. Apps with higher user traffic receive greater profits.
* Platform Fee: Grafilab collects a 5% platform fee from the subscription revenue, with the remaining earnings distributed proportionally to developers based on app usage metrics.

**Flexible Monetization Options for Developers:**\
Developers who prefer not to join the bundled subscription program can monetize their AI apps using alternative models:

* **Pay-Per-Use Model:** Users pay directly for each interaction or usage of the AI app. Grafilab takes a 10% transaction fee for facilitating the process.
* **Direct Purchase Model:** Users can purchase lifetime access to specific AI apps. Grafilab earns a service fee based on a percentage of the sale value.
