Acurast Association

Acurast Association operates a decentralized compute network that utilizes smartphone hardware to deliver secure, scalable, and confidential computing solutions to various sectors. Acurast Association focuses on providing decentralized computing services leveraging smartphones. The company has not undergone any notable pivots in its business strategy. Founded by an undisclosed individual, it operates global offices in key markets such as North America and Europe.

The company recently concluded a deal in November 2025, marking USD 16. 4 million total deal to date. Acurast offers a decentralized compute network that leverages the hardware capabilities of smartphones to provide secure, scalable, and confidential computing solutions. The core product, the Acurast Processor, is available in two formats: Lite and Core.

The Lite version enables users to utilize their smartphones for compute processing, while the Core version is intended for dedicated devices focused on processing tasks. This network supports a range of applications, including secure AI execution, decentralized VPN services, automated on-chain trading strategies, and high-performance distributed computing, catering to developers and enterprises in sectors such as blockchain, artificial intelligence, and web services across North America, Europe, and Asia. Acurast's revenue model is based on providing decentralized computing services through user participation as Processors, earning rewards in MIST points. Users onboard their devices, process tasks, and receive incentives based on their compute contributions.

The pricing structure is determined by the performance and availability of each Processor type, with varying rewards tied to compute volume. This approach facilitates engagement with both individual users and enterprise clients, enhancing collaboration in the decentralized compute ecosystem with transparent and automated billing. In November 2025, Acurast Association raised USD 11 million in venture funding from returning investor CoinList, with participation from new investors Scytale Digital, and P2O2. This funding will be utilized to enhance Acurast's platform and growth.

The company is focusing on expanding its offerings with new products aimed at improving its decentralized computing capabilities. Additionally, Acurast plans to target new markets, including specific expansions into Asia and Europe, aiming for a broader reach by the end of 2025.
