Imagine a future where artificial intelligence isn’t locked behind corporate firewalls or driven by centralized algorithms—but is open, decentralized, and controlled by you.
That’s the future Autonomys is building.
At its core, Autonomys is not just another blockchain or AI project. It’s the foundational layer for AI3.0—a fully decentralized, modular infrastructure stack designed for building next-generation AI-powered applications, agents, and systems on-chain.
For communities that care about decentralization, transparency, and composability, Autonomys represents an inflection point. It’s where the power of AI meets the ethos of Web3.
Why Autonomys? Why Now?
We’re witnessing an evolution in artificial intelligence:
- AI1.0 was centralized and reactive—cloud-based ML models served up by Big Tech.
- AI2.0 introduced interactivity—generative tools like ChatGPT and Claude, still tightly controlled.
- AI3.0 is decentralized and human-centric—open-source agents, verifiable data, and customizable intelligence built on chain.
Autonomys is the platform making AI3.0 possible.
What Makes Autonomys Different?
The team behind Autonomys rebuilt the blockchain stack from first principles—purpose-built to serve the demands of AI systems:
1. Permanent Distributed Storage (DSN)
AI needs a massive, permanent memory. Autonomys offers an integrated distributed storage network where data is verifiable, available forever, and accessible on demand—without relying on cloud monopolies.
2. Scalable Modular Compute (Domains)
Think of Domains like "mini blockchains" with custom runtimes. Whether you need EVM, WASM, or custom VMs for AI training, inference, or agent logic, Domains offer scalable compute while maintaining decentralization.
3. Proof-of-Archival-Storage (PoAS) Consensus
Autonomys replaces energy-heavy mining with a storage-based consensus that secures the chain while ensuring all data remains permanently available.
4. Auto ID & Autonomous Agents
At the heart of AI3.0 are verifiable, self-sovereign identities for both humans and agents. Auto ID enables persistent, interoperable agent identities that can be trained, upgraded, and governed by users.
