Bandwidth proxy
Residential proxy with live per-byte category labels. 30% cheaper than incumbents.
Share idle bandwidth, CPU, GPU, or a few hours of Mac time. See exactly what your hardware is doing in real time. Get paid in cash, free VPN, or $GRID — your choice.
Stats refresh from the coordinator API once Phase 1 launches. We deliberately ship dashes until there’s real volume — no vanity metrics.
Same daemon runs all four workloads — and you choose which ones are on.
Residential proxy with live per-byte category labels. 30% cheaper than incumbents.
Run OCI containers on home Linux + Mac providers. gVisor-isolated.
Consumer GPUs (4090, 5090, Apple Silicon MLX) for batch inference + fine-tuning.
Pay-per-minute Mac CI. Half the price of GitHub Actions Mac. No 24-hour leases.
Every byte that transits your IP is labeled, in real time, in your provider dashboard. Block a category, a customer, or a destination with one click. The same audit log is published to the coordinator for cryptographic proof — what we tell you is what we tell our customers.
We exist because Hola sold its users’ bandwidth without meaningful consent in 2015. The whole industry inherited that opacity. We’re building the opposite.
See the audit dashboardEvery incumbent occupies one quadrant. iogrid covers all of them, plus the iOS-build wedge no one else has touched.

vCard’s LinkedIn-profile lookups used to hit datacenter-IP rate limits and silently return empty. Routing the same fetch through iogrid’s residential-bandwidth mesh restored the field — name, title, company come back end-to-end at p95 ≈ 600 ms. vCard is OpenOva’s contacts app and the canonical Phase 0 internal customer.
