About Nosana Grants
Nosana runs a decentralized GPU compute network on Solana. Its grants program funds teams building AI applications, infrastructure or tooling that use Nosana compute, from model hosting and inference to agent systems, data pipelines and developer tools.
Applications are open all year. A Grants Committee scores each one against a rubric within about two weeks, looking at the technical approach, ecosystem impact, roadmap, team track record and how much the project uses Nosana compute. Teams that are not selected get feedback and can reapply.
Grants range from $5,000 to $50,000 and are paid in milestone tranches as a mix of USDC, NOS tokens and GPU credits on Nosana. The funding is non-dilutive and you keep your IP.
