| Free tier | TEE compute on workerpools paid per execution in RLC, split between the app provider, the data provider, the workerpool and gas. The free lane is testnet only: 'Get 5 RLC tokens per claim on Arbitrum Sepolia testnet', with GitHub authentication, a 24-hour cooldown and 'Balance verification (max 1 RLC)'. unit none; metered on wall-clock; testnet-faucet |

| Identity | email a GitHub account is the gate on the free lane: the faucet documentation states "Get 5 RLC tokens per claim on Arbitrum Sepolia testnet" with GitHub authentication, a 24-hour cooldown and a balance check capped at 1 RLC, and the tokens buy testnet executions only. Mainnet capacity needs RLC bought on an exchange, and the record does not state whether that purchase or the mainnet account requires KYC, a phone or an identity document; no card, hold, debit or prepaid statement appears |

| Composes with | A workerpool order with all price fields at 0 accepts only free resources, so a testnet run can be assembled at zero token cost; the same setting on mainnet finds no worker, because no provider serves for nothing. |
|---|
| Reliability | no reliability event recorded |
|---|
| Notes | iExec is the cheapest TEE execution lane found here only if a provider publishes a 0-price order; none was found. Mainnet capacity needs RLC bought on an exchange. Whether the Sepolia workerpool has live workers was not tested; that needs a funded testnet wallet and an order match. |
