Catenaa, Monday, December 08, 2025- Fluence, a cloudless computing platform, has launched a grant program on the TON Builders portal, providing compute credits to TON-based projects to accelerate development and reduce infrastructure costs.
Builders using Fluence credits can save up to 85% on cloud expenses, supporting early-stage, scaling, and enterprise-level projects.
The program is open to TON developers building on or integrating with the network.
Fluence’s infrastructure features high-performance AMD Zen5 CPUs and NVIDIA GPUs, including H100 and RTX series, optimized for AI, blockchain, and compute-heavy workloads. Users can deploy TON nodes, run AI pipelines, and manage servers via the Fluence Console or APIs.
Three grant tiers are available: Builder Tier ($2,000–$5,000 credits), Growth Tier ($5,000–$10,000 credits), and Enterprise Tier (custom allocations based on project scope).
Credits remain valid for six to twelve months, depending on the tier. Fluence will also provide onboarding assistance to simplify setup and deployment for new projects.
Eligible applicants must be active TON builders with MVPs and early-stage funding or self-financed infrastructure spend. The initiative aims to lower the barrier to entry for decentralized compute, enabling teams to experiment and scale without prohibitive cloud costs.
The total initial allocation of compute credits is up to $100,000, equivalent to approximately $700,000 in centralized cloud resources. Projects in AI, blockchain nodes, gaming, analytics, and streaming are prioritized.
Fluence aggregates enterprise-grade global infrastructure for Web3 and AI applications, while TON provides a decentralized ecosystem within Telegram, allowing projects to operate under community governance with no single controlling authority.
