Idle bandwidth is income.
One lightweight agent serves the connection you're not using. Metered per GB, paid out monthly. You set the cap and the block-list.
Never saturates your line · Paid every month
Start earning
Create a peer account. It takes about a minute.
A continuous demonstration of a peer serving proxy bandwidth and browser compute, each event metered and credited, while block-listed domains are refused.
Install
One command. Any spare device.
macOS, Windows, Linux, Android, and Android TVs today. iOS is rolling out. The agent runs in the background and only uses bandwidth you aren't.
Control
Your cap. Your block-list.
It never saturates your line, and it refuses any domain you name. Your bank, email, and socials are fenced off on install. That list is built from your browser history, on your device.
Get paid
Metered, credited, paid monthly.
Two meters run server side: every GB you serve, and every hour your machine is lent out for a browser render. Bandwidth is the expensive resource, so it carries the higher rate; compute is paid at a fraction of it. Connect a bank account once. Payouts land every month.
What you could earn
The connection you already pay for, paying you back.
Two meters run server side, and both pay out in cash every month. Bandwidth is metered per GB at 10¢ and up. It is the resource we would otherwise have to buy, so it carries the higher rate. Compute is metered per hour your machine is lent out for a browser render, at 3¢ and up. It stands in for a cheap server hour, not for a gigabyte, so it is priced as a fraction of bandwidth. Clean, fast, always-on connections earn the top of both rates.

Reading the table
The top of that table is a bandwidth number, and the arithmetic is worth stating plainly. $1,500 a month means serving roughly 7.5 TB at the top 20¢ rate, across several devices on a fast line. Bandwidth is the lane that gets you there. Compute is a steady top-up on the machines you leave running anyway.
Estimates, not a guarantee. Both meters run server side, are credited to your account, and pay out in cash every month: bandwidth per GB served, compute per hour your machine is lent out. Compute is metered as machine-active time, so overlapping browser sessions count once. Your per-GB rate is agreed per peer and your compute rate follows it as a fixed fraction.
The desktop app
One window. Two switches.
It shows what you share, what you've served, and whether you're connected. Bandwidth and compute each have their own switch.
What you share
Earning while idleServes web requests through your connection.
Paid per GB served · the higher rate
Runs real browser sessions for crawls that need rendering. Overlapping sessions count once.
Paid per hour shared · a fraction of the GB rate

Privacy
Your private sites never touch the pool.
On setup, the agent reads your browser history on your device only to find the sites you use most, like your bank, email, and socials, and adds them to your block-list so your bandwidth is never used to reach them.
Read locally, never uploaded.
The agent reads a read-only copy of your history and keeps only the domains.
Every site has a switch.
Allow any site you are comfortable serving. Your choice sticks across syncs.
Re-syncs daily.
A site that gets busy this week is protected next week without you touching anything.

After you install
Open it once
It runs in the background from then on. There is no setup wizard.
It shares on its own
Sharing starts inside the cap and block-list you set.
Link it to get paid
The app shows a pairing code. Enter it at peers.spider.cloud/link. An unlinked device earns nothing. Track it on your dashboard.
