# SGL Processors — Overview

> Serverless functions that run inside a TEE — deploy code, invoke on demand, pay per call. Coming soon.

<Note>**SGL Processors are coming soon.** This page previews the direction; details may change before launch.</Note>

**SGL Processors** bring serverless functions to confidential compute: deploy a function once, invoke it on demand, and have it run **inside a hardware TEE** — so your code and its data stay private from the host.

## The idea

* **Deploy a function** to the network (no servers to manage).
* **Invoke it on demand** — it cold-starts in an enclave, runs, returns.
* **Pay per call** — credits or x402, like the rest of the network.
* **Confidential** — execution happens in a TEE; inputs/outputs can be end-to-end encrypted.

## How it complements the rest of the network

* **Grid** = managed model inference.
* **Machines** = full instances you control.
* **Processors** = lightweight, event-driven functions for glue logic, pre/post-processing, private data transforms, and agent tools — without running a whole machine.

## Status

Processors are in development. Follow the dashboard (**Processors**) for availability. In the meantime, use [Grid](/cloud/grid/overview) for inference and [Machines](/cloud/machines/overview) for general compute.
