An Open Marketplace for AI Inference

Solana Request for Startups: Jacob Creech, VP Technology, Solana Foundation

Developers want one interface for accessing AI models. But today’s inference platforms don’t necessarily let users verify which model generated a response.

Solana could support an open marketplace for inference providers, using payment channels to pay for usage and verifiable inference to give users confidence in the models they’re running. Providers could list new models permissionlessly, build a reputation, and potentially use that track record to fund future development.

If you’re building the open payment layer for AI inference, come build it on Solana.
