Shello the hermit crab on a rock in a tide pool at sunset, among glowing shells

Every agent needs a shell.

Shello reads live GPU prices and Solana fees, then tells your AI agent what it costs to think and to act. Every number says when it was read.

Solana is moving 1,524 transactions a second. A token swap costs $0.000415. The cheapest live H100 is $0.89 an hour.

Read , and .

Below the surface, every AI agent needs two things.

A brain to think with, and hands to act with. Shello reads what both cost, live.

Solana right now: calm

A brain that runs on a GPU.

Bigger models need more GPU memory. Shello finds the cheapest GPU that fits yours, from live markets.

Cheapest H100 now $0.89/h

And hands that pay Solana fees.

Every swap or trade an agent makes pays a small fee. Shello tells you how much, and whether it will land.

A token swap now $0.000415

The brain lives in a shell.

An agent thinks on a GPU. A bigger model needs more memory (VRAM), so it needs a bigger shell. Each shell below is sized by its memory and priced by the cheapest live offer for that card right now.

Shello trying to climb into a bigger glowing shell

Llama 3.3 70B Instruct at int4 needs about 43 GB. The cheapest shell free right now that holds it: 2 x RTX 3090 on Nosana, $0.38 an hour.

The hands swim the current.

Every move an agent makes on Solana pays a small fee. When the network is crowded the current gets rough and fees climb. The lines below swing as hard as the network is struggling right now.

Current: 36% of transactions in the latest sampled blocks failed. The line height follows that share.

Shello reads both, so your agent does not have to.

  1. Shello reading a glowing tablet

    It reads

    The latest Solana blocks, Jito's tip floor, the SOL price and three GPU markets: Nosana, io.net and Akash. Each on its own clock, every few seconds to minutes.

    Blocks , GPUs

  2. Shello looking through a magnifying glass

    It checks

    Every number keeps the second it was read. A source that stops answering shows as unavailable, never as zero. A price that makes no sense, like a B300 at $0.23 an hour, is held back.

    2 prices held back right now. Status

  3. Shello presenting with its big claw

    It answers

    Ask in plain words, or let your agent call the same 13 tools over MCP. Every answer names its source and when it was read. No investment advice, ever.

    Ask Shello

200 m down, on the sea floor

Your agent can ask too.

One line gives Claude Code all 13 of Shello's tools over MCP. Cursor, Windsurf and Gemini CLI take a few lines more. No key needed for 30 tool calls an hour.

$SHEL is not launched

Until it is, every free feature stays on for everyone and holder tiers are off. It is a key to higher limits on Shello, nothing more: no promises about its price, no profit, no revenue share, no buyback.

Straight answers

Does Shello rent GPUs or send transactions?

Shello never holds a key or your money. On Rent a shell, your own wallet signs and pays Nosana's program directly; Shello only builds, simulates and relays the transaction you signed, and takes no fee.

Before you trust Rent a shell

Shello never holds your NOS, SOL or keys: your wallet pays Nosana directly. Nosana runs the GPU, not Shello, so there is no uptime guarantee and jobs can fail or queue. Unused time is refunded by Nosana's program, and a small SOL deposit returns when the job is closed. Your endpoint is locked with a key only you hold. Not audited yet; rentals are capped per transaction. Software, not advice.

Where do the numbers come from?

Solana mainnet over RPC, Jito's tip floor, the Jupiter price API, and the public APIs of Nosana, io.net and Akash. Cloud list prices come from a table that names each page and the day it was read.

What if a source goes down?

Its numbers disappear and you see "unavailable, last good read" with the time. Never a stale number, never a zero, never a made-up one.

Is it affiliated with Nosana, io.net, Akash or Jito?

No. Shello reads their public data and has no relationship with any of them.

Shello waving hello

Ask Shello what your agent costs.

A GPU to think on, a fee for every move. Shello reads both, live, and shows its sources.
