Introduction
AxonOS is a full Linux scientific desktop with real GPUs, streamed to your browser. Open app.axonos.io, connect a wallet, buy compute credits, and launch a preloaded research environment in minutes — no installation, no setup.
A complete research lab, a browser tab away.
It pairs lightweight desktop streaming with a comprehensive scientific toolchain and native AI assistance, all built on a decentralized, crypto-native foundation — part of the AxonDAO ecosystem.

Hosted, or your own
Most people use the hosted platform at app.axonos.io. But AxonOS is open source (MIT), so you can also run it yourself — a single desktop on your laptop, or the full gated stack on a GPU server.
| Hosted (app.axonos.io) | Self-hosted | |
|---|---|---|
| Setup | None — open a browser | Build the Docker image |
| GPUs | Provided, billed per minute | Your own hardware |
| Best for | Researchers, students, quick work | Labs, operators, contributors |

Project status
AxonOS is feature-complete and under active development. The scientific software suite, the AI assistant with vision, the wallet-gated GPU platform, and the build/deploy tooling are all operational, with regular enhancements driven by community feedback.
