WINDOWS · DESKTOP
The full local toolkit.
Installed AI tools, native CPU/GPU work and larger creative pipelines. Includes Ollama specialist request adapters for farm, local workspace and permitted shared-host work, plus separate checked Qwen3.8-27B setup. Model and runtime downloads are checked separately. Native jobs still use the original coordinator; the new cash contribution ledger is separate.
Download Windows app (EXE) ↗V2 · Windows 10/11 x64 · 403 MiB · unsigned single EXE. Open it; the first launch prepares and checks the app automatically and creates Etheraio shortcuts. No manual extraction. Windows .NET Framework 4.8 is required. Large AI models and optional mining tools use the checked setup downloads.Windows publisher recognition is pending. This release is unsigned. Windows may show “Unknown publisher” or a Microsoft Defender SmartScreen warning while its publisher and download reputation are unverified.
About the Windows app & how to run it
Etheraio runs local AI tools and opted-in CPU/GPU research and creative jobs. Accepted work is recorded for contribution revenue sharing. Optional Monero CPU and Pearl GPU mining use their own wallet, worker and pool checks, and pay in the coin mined.
- Choose Download Windows app (EXE) above. Close any older Etheraio window, then open Etheraio-V2-Windows-x64.exe from your Downloads folder.
- If Windows shows Windows protected your PC, select More info to inspect the app. Verify the filename and the SHA-256 below. If you trust this download and Windows offers Run anyway, you can choose it to continue.
- A named virus/threat detection, quarantine, a disabled Run anyway button or a managed-device restriction requires review. Choose Don’t run and contact etheraio@proton.me with the warning text. Keep Windows protection enabled.
- Allow the first launch to prepare and check the app files and create the Etheraio shortcut. Large AI models and optional mining tools have their own checked setup downloads.
- Open the desktop Etheraio shortcut, sign in and choose your CPU/GPU utilisation limits. Review the work and optional crypto setup, then press Start mining. Setup or sync requirements can leave a lane waiting. Use Stop to end work.
Why Windows may warn: the current EXE has no verified publisher signature, and SmartScreen also considers download reputation. Antivirus checks for optional crypto workers are separate. There is no confirmed Microsoft approval date for this app.

Use the browser farm instead ↗ANDROID · PHONE / TABLET / TV
Your AI studio, together.
Local text AI, foreground contribution work and a media studio for your paired desktop. Full image, 3D, motion and facial models execute on the paired PC, on the same private LAN.
Download Etheraio Android (APK) ↗Download Android project source ↗Download Android Lite (smaller CPU farm, no bundled text AI model) ↗v2.0.0 · Android 8+ · signed · 598 MiB · ARM64/x86-64. Bundled Etheraio mobile text AI; native on-device research farm dashboard with CPU workers and Android power/heat feedback. Full media uses your paired desktop. Not physically device-tested.About the Android farm & how to install it
The Android farm performs supported research calculations directly on the phone’s CPU, with device-sized parallel work. Its bundled text AI runs locally. Phone contribution work does not require a paired PC. Full image, 3D, motion and facial media models can use a paired desktop.
- On your Android device, choose Download Etheraio Android (APK), wait for the download to finish, then tap Etheraio-2.0.0-Android-Full.apk in Downloads.
- If Android asks for installation permission, open the setting it offers and allow installation from the browser or file manager you used. Return to the APK and tap Install, then Open. Review any security warning before continuing.
- Sign in to your Etheraio account and open AI farm. Choose the phone CPU target, then tap Start phone farm. The app registers or selects this phone’s contribution node and submits results for server verification.
- Keep the farm visible. Use Stop before leaving it; Android heat, battery and memory limits can pause work. The built-in worker handles supported jobs; other compatible jobs use the phone’s CPU/WebGPU browser worker.
- Choose Local AI and Load AI for private on-device text generation. Local adapter training uses checked examples and is separate from verified network earnings. Paired media is optional.
Android 8+; the full APK supports ARM64 and x86-64. A physical-phone execution test is still pending. Monero and Pearl mining are desktop features. Accepted contribution weight is a share of funded revenue, not a guaranteed cash rate.

LINUX · X64 PREVIEW
Contribute from your Linux desktop.
The current native CPU worker, browser account sign-in and shared desktop interface in a portable archive. Optional local AI requires a compatible Linux runtime and model. This preview has not been run on a Linux desktop.
Download Linux preview (TAR.GZ) ↗Download Linux project source ↗v2.0.0 · Linux x64 · 162 MiB · preview. CPU package checks pass; Linux GPU, training, full media and crypto execution are unverified. No crypto worker or node is included.How to open the Linux preview
- Download and extract the entire archive into a folder you own. Keep its bundled files together.
- Run Start Etheraio.sh as your ordinary desktop user. Compatible GTK, NSS, audio and .NET native system libraries are required; the .NET runtime is bundled. Do not run as root or disable security protections to bypass errors.
- Sign in through your browser, choose your CPU limits and review the supported work before Start. Farming is stopped initially.
Use the browser farm if the native preview cannot start. This is not a verified universal Linux or GPU release.

APPLE · IPHONE / IPAD
Start in your browser.
Open the farm in Safari, then use Share → Add to Home Screen. Native Apple project source is available for building with Xcode on a Mac.
Open mobile farm ↗Download Apple project source ↗A signed IPA is not available. Apple signing, App Store submission and device tests remain outstanding.Minimum device requirements
Windows desktop. Windows 10 or 11, x64, with .NET Framework 4.8. Native GPU jobs require a compatible DirectX 12 adapter and driver. CPU jobs can run without a dedicated GPU. Each local model and media job has its own memory and storage requirements.
Android Full. Android 8 or later on ARM64 or x86-64. Allow about 1.3 GB of free storage plus installation overhead. The included local text model needs about 1.1 GiB of currently available RAM to load. The full media pipeline uses a compatible paired desktop.
Mobile browser. Use a current browser or Android WebView for online work. GPU jobs need WebGPU; devices with CPU support can run eligible CPU work. Shared AI needs an internet connection and an available host.
A clear capability, on every device.
Browser farming supports devices with a current browser and the required CPU/WebGPU features. Desktop specialists need compatible installed runtimes and sufficient memory. The Android Lite app can reach more architectures; Android TV navigation still needs physical-device testing. Consoles and locked-down TVs are not supported native platforms.
Smaller devices can process smaller independent chunks. Splitting a design does not let an arbitrarily large model fit on every device or guarantee perfect assembly. A job waits rather than silently lowering its quality target.
Close an earlier Etheraio version before opening this download. The launcher and app use Etheraio’s company logo. The bundled P2Pool runtime’s exact upstream source archive is offered with the Windows package; Etheraio changes and its GPL licence are included with the prepared app files. Optional crypto mining is configured separately inside Mine in the desktop app.
Apps begin with farming stopped. Effort controls, heat, battery limits, available useful work and network delays affect throughput. No continuous 100% utilization is promised.
