We present a new mechanism which explains the matter-antimatter asymmetry in the context of inflation. During the course of inflation gravity waves are produced, satisfying all three Sakharov conditions at the same time; generating the observed baryon to entropy ratio. Interestingly the baryon to entropy ratio is related to the gravitational wave power spectrum.
