Towards Open Intelligence

Gradient is an AI R&D lab dedicated to building open intelligence through a fully decentralized infrastructure — OIS (Open Intelligence Stack), encompassing distributed training, serving, agentic systems, and more.

We are solving the hardest and most ambitious problem in the intersection of Blockchain x AI: How do we train/serve good LLMs over public internet — Is it even possible to build an OpenAI competitor over a permissionless, autonomous network?

Our current OIS includes Parallax for distributed serving, Echo for distributed reinforcement learning, and Gradient Cloud for enterprise solutions.

Backed by top investors and a team of world-class researchers, Gradient is committed to releasing more frontier research that will unlock a future where intelligence can be assembled, scaled, and evolved by anyone, anywhere.

Our mission

Gradient is building the world’s first Open Intelligence Stack: a sovereign, peer-powered infrastructure where intelligence is hosted, served, and owned by the people. Our goal is a global foundation that enables the distribution, evolution, and embodiment of intelligence.
