NIMA PLATFORM
The water heater that powers AI
A distributed edge compute network embedded in every home. AI companies get low-cost infrastructure. Homeowners get free hot water and a zero electricity bill.

THE PROBLEM
Data centers are hitting a wall
AI training and inference demand is doubling every few months, but the infrastructure to support it is running out of room. Data centers consume enormous amounts of energy, require vast water supplies for cooling, and face growing community opposition to new construction.
of global electricity goes to data centers, projected to reach 8% by 2030
of data center operating cost is cooling alone
gallons of water per day a single hyper-scale data center can consume
THE SOLUTION
Your hot water tank is the perfect heat sink
Every home already has a water heater. Nima replaces it with a compute node: a high-performance GPU cluster sealed inside a residential water heating unit. The GPUs generate heat, the water absorbs it, and the homeowner gets hot water at no cost. The AI company gets distributed compute without building a new data center.
No cooling towers. No water waste. No transmission loss from remote data centers. Compute happens where the homes already are, using existing plumbing and electrical infrastructure. Each unit is a drop-in replacement for a standard 50-gallon water heater.
HOW IT WORKS
Four steps, zero waste
BENEFITS
A win for everyone
For AI companies
- Lower infrastructure costs
No land acquisition, no cooling towers, no new power substations. Tap into existing residential infrastructure.
- Distributed edge availability
Compute nodes are already where your users are. Reduced latency, improved resilience, natural geographic distribution.
- Sustainable by design
Every unit runs on waste heat recovery. Zero additional water consumption. Carbon-neutral compute as a baseline.
For homeowners
- Free hot water
The compute node generates more than enough heat to meet your household's hot water needs. Every shower, every load of laundry, at zero cost.
- Electricity bill covered
Revenue from the compute workload covers 100% of the unit's electricity consumption. Your household energy costs for water heating go to zero.
- Drop-in replacement
Same footprint as a standard water heater. Uses existing plumbing and 240V wiring. Installation in under four hours.
