Introduction
Plura provides a completely new source of revenue for desktop applications. By integrating with Plura technology, application developers can create a recurring revenue stream that only requires a small amount of initial development work.
Plura Processing creates an entirely new way to monetize users. Instead of relying on ads or charging for your software, you can now create a constant revenue stream each time a user launches your application.
We give you complete control over how Plura is run through your application. Although we require you to fully disclose the use of Plura in your application, you are given complete control over how Plura is embedded. You can control how often Plura is run, how much of the CPU it uses, and so on. Our affiliates determine the best way to integrate Plura with their software.
Help Solve Important Problems
Our customers use Plura for a variety of commercial and research-oriented applications. These applications use the computing power affiliates provide to solve important and challenging problems, such as web crawling, eliminating stock market inefficiency, finding Mersenne primes, and protein modeling. Our affiliates provide an important service by helping reduce the cost and time it takes to solve these problems.
Wider Distribution of Your Application
Because Plura generates revenue for a developer on a recurring basis, it reduces the importance of requiring users to purchase software. This in turn increases the likelihood of people using the application and expands distribution.
Pricing
Plura Processing pays affiliates up to $2.60 per full month of computing time provided. "Full month of computing time" is equivalent to a single CPU providing compute time for an entire month at 100% utilization.
Payments depend on compute demand from our customers. As such, payments to affiliates can vary from month to month.
