# Supplier Overview

> Monetize idle GPU capacity with Lilac. Keep your existing workloads running, earn 70% of inference revenue, and reclaim resources instantly on demand.

If you operate GPU infrastructure, Lilac lets you monetize idle capacity without changing your existing workloads. When your GPUs aren't busy, Lilac's operator automatically picks up inference traffic and routes it to your cluster. When you need the GPUs back, the operator gracefully steps aside.

## How It Works

<Steps>
  <Step title="You keep your workloads">
    Your existing jobs always take priority. Lilac only uses GPUs when they're idle.
  </Step>

  <Step title="The operator fills the gaps">
    Our Kubernetes operator detects idle GPUs, spins up inference pods, and serves traffic from Lilac's inference network.
  </Step>

  <Step title="You earn per token">
    Every inference token processed on your hardware earns you revenue. You keep **70%** of the gross — Lilac takes 30%.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Preemption is seamless">
    When your own workloads need GPUs back, the operator gracefully drains inference pods with zero impact on your jobs.
  </Step>
</Steps>
