- Agent4Lease is a marketplace where authors publish infrastructure and platform agents, and runners lease them to run on their own infrastructure (Kubernetes, OpenStack, bare metal).
- Authors keep 70% of the lease fee for every active runner; payouts occur monthly based on live heartbeat activity (idle leases don't count).
- The control plane manages agent configuration, credentials, and dashboards but never touches the runner's workload data — agents run entirely within the runner's VPC, cluster, or bare metal.
- Runners license the agent code; the workload never leaves their infrastructure, so compute, storage, and egress remain under their control.
- Publishing an agent is free: authors provide a GitHub repo and category, a quick review verifies clean operation and heartbeat reporting, then the agent goes live in the marketplace.
- Plans range from single-agent evaluation to enterprise fleets, all including the hosted control plane; runners pay per plan and authors earn 70% of the plan price.
- Example listed agents: workload description to config (fio, vdbench, etc.), LangGraph/CrewAI implementations, PrestoDB auto-scaling on EKS, and NFS testing suites.
- The marketplace is prototype-stage and seeking early investors; interested parties can request a demo.
