Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about BEEON
Is BEEON safe for my computer?
Absolutely! BEEON runs in a secure sandbox environment with bank-level security. We use only 50% of your CPU to prevent overheating and hardware degradation, and all tasks are verified by multiple nodes before and during execution. Your personal files and data are never accessed. Every task is cryptographically signed and verified. Our system automatically monitors for anomalies and instantly halts any suspicious task, sending alerts to our operations center for immediate analysis.
How much can I really earn?
Earnings depend on your CPU cores, hours contributed, and current demand. Average users with 8-core CPUs running 12 hours daily earn €30-50/month. Power users with 16+ cores can earn €100-150+/month. Our transparent calculator on the home page lets you estimate your specific earnings based on your hardware and availability. The more cores and hours you contribute, the more you earn. Plus, if you join our Partner Program, you can earn an additional 5% commission from every referral!
What about electricity costs?
We've done the math for you! At average European electricity rates (€0.15/kWh), a typical PC costs €5-10/month to run 12 hours daily. With BEEON earnings of €40+/month, you're still profiting €30-35/month. In countries with cheaper electricity, profits are even higher. Our 50% CPU limit ensures your system runs efficiently without excessive power consumption. The beauty of our global model is that we distribute tasks based on regional time zones, so your PC isn't always under load.
When and how do I get paid?
Payments are made directly to your bank account once you reach the €100 minimum threshold. Most users reach this in 2-4 months. We process payouts on the 1st of each month via SEPA transfer (EU) or international wire transfer. You can track all your transactions in real-time through our transparent dashboard. We're built on a nonprofit model, so you can even view our company bank account to verify all transactions. Complete transparency is our promise.
What is my PC actually computing?
BEEON powers AI research, machine learning training, scientific simulations, and data analysis for startups and enterprises. We focus on embarrassingly parallel tasks that don't require high-speed interconnects—perfect for distributed computing. Your PC might be training neural networks for computer vision, running climate simulations, processing scientific datasets, or contributing to breakthrough AI research. Every task is carefully vetted for security and legitimacy before being distributed to our network.
Can I use my PC while BEEON is running?
Absolutely! BEEON automatically detects when you're actively using your PC and intelligently reduces its activity to maintain your system's performance. We cap CPU usage at 50% to ensure smooth performance for your everyday tasks. Most users don't even notice BEEON running in the background. Our smart scheduling algorithm prioritizes your work while still contributing idle resources to our network.
Is my data and privacy protected?
Yes, absolutely. Your data privacy is our top priority. All data transmitted is encrypted end-to-end using military-grade encryption. BEEON never has access to your personal files, documents, or sensitive information. We operate in a strict sandbox environment where tasks are isolated from your system. Every participant is manually verified and approved before joining our network. We comply with GDPR and all EU data protection regulations. Your data never leaves the EU unless you explicitly consent.
How does BEEON ensure task security and prevent malware?
We have multiple layers of security. Every task is cryptographically signed and verified by multiple nodes in our network. Our system continuously monitors for anomalies in task behavior. If anything suspicious is detected, the task is automatically terminated and our operations center is immediately alerted. We use sandboxing techniques to isolate computations from your system. All code is reviewed and whitelisted before distribution. Tasks run with minimal privileges to prevent any unauthorized access to your system.
What are the system requirements for BEEON?
BEEON is lightweight and works on most modern systems. Minimum requirements: Windows 7+, macOS 10.12+, or Linux (Ubuntu 16.04+). You need at least 2GB RAM and a multi-core processor (2+ cores recommended). The application is only 50-100MB in size. Your internet connection should be stable but doesn't need to be high-speed. The app runs in the background and uses minimal bandwidth. We support both x86 and ARM architectures for maximum compatibility.
Can I stop BEEON anytime?
Yes, completely! You can pause or stop BEEON at any time with a single click. No penalties, no hidden fees. If you want to uninstall, simply remove the application. You'll be paid for all work completed up to that point. Your earnings will still be available in your account. There's no lock-in period or commitment required. We want you to continue because you trust us, not because you're forced to.
How does the global load balancing work?
BEEON operates globally across multiple time zones. When it's working hours in Europe, our servers distribute tasks to Asian and American participants who are in their nighttime. This ensures consistent load distribution and prevents any single region from being overworked. Your PC automatically receives tasks based on optimal timing for your location. This global distribution model makes BEEON more efficient and sustainable—no region is ever overloaded, and your hardware is never pushed beyond its limits.
Is BEEON environmentally sustainable?
Yes, sustainability is core to our mission. We cap CPU usage at 50% and use intelligent scheduling to prevent hardware degradation and excessive power consumption. Our global load-balancing ensures no region is ever overloaded. We partner with renewable energy initiatives to offset our carbon footprint. Unlike traditional data centers that run at full capacity, BEEON leverages existing hardware efficiently. We're aligned with EU sustainability goals for 2030, working to make computing more eco-friendly and keep data within Europe. Every computation you do with BEEON is a step toward a greener future.
What makes BEEON different from other distributed computing projects?
BEEON stands out in several ways: We're built on a nonprofit model with complete financial transparency. You can view our actual bank transactions. We prioritize user safety with multiple security layers and manual verification of every participant. Our 50% CPU limit ensures you can always use your PC normally. We offer real, sustainable earnings without false promises. Our focus on sustainability and EU data sovereignty aligns with future regulations. We have a dedicated operations center monitoring every task. And we reward partners who help us grow with 5% lifetime commission on referrals.
