iExec x Aethir: Trusted GPU Infrastructure Expands with New Workerpool Partner

After joining forces in the AI Unbundled Alliance, we’re taking things further: AethirCloud is now a GPU Workerpool provider partner in the iExec ecosystem. This partnership is a core part of our 2025 roadmap to expand a trusted, governance-ready Workerpool network, built for highly demanding compute tasks and real-world AI use cases that require serious power and privacy. Aethir brings the H100s. iExec brings the TEE infrastructure.

Together, we unlock the potential to run high-performance, confidential AI workloads at scale, without compromising decentralization or security.

This partnership offers a decentralized and trusted foundation for secure AI computation.

With iExec as the trust layer through its Trusted Execution Environments, now extended from CPUs to GPUs, we’re unlocking a new level of scalability, confidentiality, and reliability that modern AI workloads require.

TEEs for GPUs

Another step in expanding our trust layer model, historically CPU-based, to support GPU workloads. Full TEE attestation for GPUs is a critical step to ensure security guarantees through Trusted Execution Environments. This opens the door to entirely new asset classes and governance models for confidential AI.

Toward a Monetizable, Confidential AI Pipeline

This collaboration is about more than compute. It’s about trusted architecture. Together, we enable a fully confidential and monetizable AI pipeline: from model training to inference, including the data, algorithm, and results. Aethir provides the GPU muscle. iExec delivers the TEE-secured, privacy-by-design governance.

With TEEs as the foundation, each part of the AI stack: training data, inference queries, outputs, can be encrypted in use. This unlocks the ability to monetize each step securely. A game-changer for developers who want to protect IP and user data while still building scalable, profitable AI products.

iExec Use Case: Trusted Agents

This partnership lays the foundation for the next generation of AI agents.iExec’s Confidential Computing stack allows developers to launch agents with end-to-end privacy, where logic, data, and results remain encrypted and protected by TEEs. With compute power from Aethir’s GPU network, these agents can now scale faster, running complex tasks up to five times quicker through iExec’s GPU Workerpools.

These autonomous systems need to make real-time decisions on private data, interact across decentralized services, and maintain confidentiality throughout. TEEs make that possible. Ensuring agents operate with integrity, privacy, and security in a decentralized environment.

The Trust Layer for DePIN & AI

We’re actively bringing in more DePIN and GPU providers, applying the same TEE-secured model across a broader computing network. Expect to see more trusted AI use cases revealed soon!
