Inference Labs
Inference Labs provides certainty for on-chain AI by building a trustless layer for artificial intelligence using decentralized AI, proof of inference, and verifiable computation. They aim to secure AI on decentralized networks with protocols and solutions that ensure computational integrity through cryptographic verification, developing tools for agentic protocols, verifiable data-backed experiences, and interoperable intelligence to build a secure and transparent AI ecosystem.

Description
Inference Labs is a technology company focused on building a trustless layer for artificial intelligence, dedicated to a future where AI is sovereign and governed by cryptographic certainty rather than centralized authorities. They specialize in decentralized AI, proof of inference, and verifiable computation, utilizing advanced cryptography like Zero-Knowledge Machine Learning (zkML), Zero-Knowledge Proofs (ZKPs), and Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE) to ensure model authenticity and computational integrity. Their core mission is to provide security for on-chain AI with protocols equivalent to how HTTPS/TLS secures websites, addressing issues like deepfakes and the unreliability of centralized systems. Key offerings include open-source, agentic native protocols for interoperable intelligence and the Inference Commerce Protocol, which allows developers to deploy proprietary models without relying on trust. A significant project is the Omron Subnet on the Bittensor network, a digital marketplace for inference verification that uses zero-knowledge proofs to connect users with cryptographically verified AI predictions. The company has raised capital to secure AI agents and collaborates with Web3 partners to integrate its trustless infrastructure into decentralized networks.Grant Funding
