Deploy in 60 Seconds

Upload your GGUF models, configure redundancy, and get a production-ready API endpoint instantly. No DevOps required.

🔗

Decentralized & Verified

Runs on idle smartphones with 15x redundant validation. Every inference gets a cryptographic receipt proving correctness.

💰

70% Lower Cost

Pay $0.03/M tokens instead of $0.10/M on AWS. No minimums, no egress fees, no surprise bills. Just pure usage-based pricing.

Democratize AI Deployment

Billions of idle devices

Every phone on Earth has compute sitting unused. Why rent from monopolies when we can share peer-to-peer?

Proof over trust

Cryptographic receipts and 15x redundant validation. Math over marketing.

Pay for what you use

Not what AWS thinks you will use. Not what your quota allows. Actual inference tokens processed.

Open infrastructure

Your models. Your policies. Your devices. No proprietary lock-in. Full API ownership.

FAQs

Is this crypto or blockchain-based?

No. SLY are platform usage credits—not cryptocurrency or tokens. There is no blockchain, no mining rewards, and no speculative trading. Think of SLY credits like AWS credits: they are simply accounting units for compute time on our platform.

What types of AI workloads can I run?

Currently optimized for embeddings, lightweight inference (up to 7B parameter models), and bursty evaluation tasks. We are expanding to support larger models through device-class routing, where higher-spec smartphones handle more demanding workloads. RAG pipelines, semantic search, and classification tasks work particularly well.

How do I trust the results from random smartphones?

Every job gets cryptographic receipts that include: redundancy percentage (typically 15x validation), consensus details showing which devices agreed, anomaly detection results, and precise timing data. You can verify that multiple independent devices produced identical outputs, making tampering mathematically impractical.

Can I restrict where my jobs run?

Absolutely. You can create private pools with your own devices, use vetted contributor pools with KYC'd participants, set geographic restrictions (e.g., "EU devices only"), require minimum device specifications, or combine these policies. Enterprise customers get granular control over device selection.

What about SLAs and reliability?

We measure validated completion time, not just raw device speed. Our SLA guarantees are based on successfully validated outputs. If redundancy fails or consensus is not reached, you do not pay. Typical jobs complete within 2-5 seconds for inference, with sub-second p95 latency for edge-local requests.

How does pricing compare to AWS/GCP/Azure?

For supported workloads, you will typically see 60-70% cost reduction compared to cloud GPU instances. Pricing is transparent: you pay per million tokens processed, with volume discounts automatically applied. No hidden fees, no egress charges.

What happens to my data privacy?

Jobs can be end-to-end encrypted. Input data is sharded before distribution—no single device sees your complete dataset. Models run in secure enclaves where available. For maximum privacy, use private pools where you control all devices. We never log or store your inference inputs or outputs.

How do contributors earn SLY credits?

Device owners earn credits proportional to validated compute time. Earnings depend on device specs, uptime, and validation success rate. High-performing contributors get priority routing. You can cash out credits or use them to offset your own inference costs.

What is the onboarding process?

Join our waitlist above. We are onboarding in phases: first companies with immediate inference needs, then individual developers, and finally contributor device owners. Beta participants get 1,000 free SLY credits. Typical onboarding takes 2-3 days including API key setup and initial testing.

Which models and frameworks do you support?

We support ONNX, TensorFlow Lite, and PyTorch Mobile formats. Popular models include Sentence Transformers (embeddings), DistilBERT, MobileBERT, BERT-small, and quantized versions of Llama, Mistral, and Phi. If you have a specific model, reach out—we are rapidly expanding compatibility.
