Africa Compute Fund · news
Start building apps and AI products for free.
As the Africa Compute Fund builds AI infrastructure across the continent, we also have to ensure developers can access that infrastructure easily and turn it into real products.
That's why we're introducing Monarch Cloud.
Monarch Cloud is a simple platform for building apps, APIs and AI products. Create a project, get your keys, add users, store data, connect to AI and compute, and scale from there.
Start building.
Ship and grow.
AI inference and GPU compute are billed separately based on usage. All plans ↗
Start for free, and move to Builder at $5 per month when your product needs more room. Pro ($15 per month) and Scale ($49 per month) offer higher allowances as you grow.
Local-currency checkout is available in supported markets, with more African currencies and payment methods being added.
AI inference and GPU compute are also available through Monarch Cloud, Monarch API and Monarch MCP. Those services are metered and billed separately based on usage.
You can start free, ship something real, and scale when your product actually needs it.
For us, building AI infrastructure is not only about deploying GPUs, data centers and compute capacity. We also have to make that infrastructure practical and accessible to the developers who will build on it.
