2024 at Nosana: A Year In Review

With the Mainnet launch just weeks away, it feels like the right time to reflect on the milestones that have defined 2024.

This past year has been nothing short of transformative for Nosana. It’s been a year of growth, innovation, and relentless hard work as we move closer to realizing the future of decentralized AI compute. With the Mainnet launch just weeks away, it feels like the right time to reflect on the milestones that have defined 2024.

The Test Grid: A Truly Global Network

One of the most significant achievements of 2024 has been the evolution of the Test Grid into a truly global network. With over a million inference hours completed and nearly a thousand nodes onboarded from 47 countries, the grid has demonstrated the immense potential of decentralized infrastructure.

Behind these numbers lies a global network of diverse GPUs working together to power real-world applications. More than just data points, they symbolize the power of collaboration, creativity, and a shared vision of what decentralization can achieve.

Building Smarter Infrastructure

Scaling isn’t enough on its own—it needs to be paired with thoughtful improvements. That’s why 2024 was also about making Nosana smarter, faster, and more user-friendly.

One major milestone was the introduction of Nosana Node V2. This complete rewrite of our node software brought significant performance improvements, making the network more adaptable and robust. Features like enhanced APIs and a redesigned web socket architecture have set a new standard for what decentralized infrastructure can deliver.

We also revamped the Leaderboard and Dashboard to make interacting with nodes seamless and intuitive. By focusing on usability, we’re ensuring that anyone, from experienced developers to newcomers, can easily onboard and navigate the grid.

LLM Research and Benchmarking

We know AI needs compute power, but how efficient can different GPUs be? In 2024, we found out.

By researching and benchmarking Large Language Models (LLMs) on our grid, we learned a lot about performance and cost. These insights don’t just help us—they help you and the wider AI community.

In 2024, Nosana's innovative approach to decentralized GPU cloud computing garnered significant attention within the research community. Here are some of the notable contributions that were published:

Strategic Partnerships

This year, collaboration has been a big part of what we do at Nosana. We’ve worked with companies like Sogni to support creatives with AI-powered tools, teamed up with Aurory to explore new ideas in gaming, and partnered with Theoriq to drive innovation in Web3, among others. These are just a few examples of what’s possible when decentralized GPUs are put to work. Our growing network of collaborators is helping shape a future where technology is more accessible and impactful for everyone.

A Global Stage for Decentralized AI

In 2024, Nosana didn’t just stay behind the scenes. Our team traveled the world, sharing what we’re building and meeting people who care about the future of AI. We participated in 11 global events, connecting with innovators, creators, and businesses.

Some highlights include:

Solana Breakpoint in Singapore: Talking about the future of blockchain and decentralized computing.

At the World Summit AI in Amsterdam, our co-founder, Jesse Eisses, talked about "Powering the AI Revolution: Nosana’s Global Decentralized GPU Network."

AI x DePIN Networking Breakfast hosted by Nosana: Bringing creators and developers together to share ideas and collaborate.

These events weren’t just about showing what we do—they were about learning, listening, and finding new ways to make AI compute more accessible for everyone.

Beyond in-person events, we participated in online discussions:

These engagements allowed us to learn, listen, and explore new ways to make AI compute more accessible for everyone.

Looking Ahead

As we prepare for 2025, our focus shifts towards the Mainnet launch. This isn’t just a technical milestone—it’s the start of a new chapter for Nosana and the ecosystem we’re building. Features like dynamic job-to-node matching, a fully decentralized GPU grid, and an expanded suite of tools will open up new possibilities for developers and businesses alike.

2024 has been a year of laying the foundation, testing, and dreaming big. The journey has been as rewarding as the destination, and we’re grateful to everyone—our team, our community, and our partners—who made it possible.

We’re excited to keep building a more accessible, decentralized future for AI compute in 2025.
