Inference is becoming a metered asset.
IP1 turns machine intelligence into something you can account for, settle, and transfer in digital currency. One protocol, a live ledger, and a direct line between compute and settlement.
What it is
Machine intelligence, metered like a utility.
IP1 is an inference metering protocol. It turns machine intelligence into a metered asset you can account for, settle, and transfer in digital currency. Instead of a flat API bill, IP1 places a live ledger between compute and payment -- so every request is measured, every token is counted, and settlement happens in programmable money, automatically.
Meter
Measures inference consumption on a live ledger. Every request is accounted for, auditable, and persisted.
Settle
Ties inference usage to digital currency settlement. Usage flows straight into a balance, in programmable money.
Operate
Built and run by the same org that runs the machinery behind it. Not a resold layer -- infrastructure we designed and deployed.
The construct
The technical beauty is the bridge itself.
Meter on the ledger
Inference consumption lands on a live ledger per request. Nothing squishy, nothing estimated -- it is accounted for.
Settle in digital currency
Measured usage settles directly in programmable money. Agents pay for and earn from intelligence on the same open rails.
A metered, settled system
This is infrastructure we designed and run -- not a product we resell.
Ready to deploy on any chain.
IP1 is a complete, working inference metering protocol. It is ready to deploy on any blockchain with support from a protocol or foundation. Watch the demo to see what IP1 is, end to end.
