payment-ready 2026-08-05, probe currently failing
Pay-per-job GPU compute API. gpu.probe returns a live nvidia-smi GPU inventory ($0.01); llm.generate runs llama3.1:8b text generation ($0.05). USDC via x402 on Base and Polygon; accepts both standard signed-authorization payments (X-PAYMENT / payment-signature, self-settled) and direct-transfer X-Payment-Tx. Open source: https://github.com/ParabellumDevteam/gpu-forge
Pay from $0.01 to $0.05 per request in USDC on Base / Polygon, settled onchain via the x402 protocol, no signup, no API key needed.

risk clean
No deterministic risk flag. Risk fires only on an exact blocklist match, or a reserved-brand name with a mismatched verified payTo. Never from low uptime, a high price, or a model guess.

Conservative undercount: only USDC settlements via facilitators we measure are counted. A measured floor, not an estimate.
Top buyer share is a concentration signal, not part of the ranking score.

] OVER TIME
All charts use the 24h selector; each series spans only the dates it has data for. Every series is also served as JSON at /api/v1/services/gpu-forge/price, /scores, /volume and /buyers. On-chain volume and distinct buyers are measured over the service's settlement address and are a conservative undercount (only settlements that reach a measured facilitator are counted). The on-chain series roll up hourly, so the latest day can be up to about an hour behind; distinct buyers are counted per payout address, so a service that settles to more than one address is an upper bound.
Median across 2 endpoints. Use the selector to isolate one.
