Subnet Session with Fred from Polaris: SN49
In this episode of Revenue Search, we sit down with Fred from Polaris (Subnet 49) - a team building what they call the “Airbnb of compute,” starting from Africa and expanding globally.
Fred lays out Polaris’ mission to make GPUs and compute power accessible for universities, researchers, and builders who can’t afford Big Tech’s pricing. We dive into:
- Why Polaris is focused on turning idle home GPUs into a distributed compute network.
Their subscription-based model (instead of a race to the bottom on hourly pricing).
The roadmap for revenue, security, and scaling into a full AI infrastructure layer.
From bootstrapping with loaned GPUs to pitching a $1M raise, Fred is blunt about the challenges, the mission, and why accessibility matters.
