At Reppo, we enable networks and enterprises stuck in the collection stage to productize AI by enabling a new economic paradigm around off-prem collaboration and IP co-ownership. After engaging with 80+ DePIN Node Operators and 40+ Web2 enterprises, we learnt that many businesses don't productionize AI as it's simply not their focus. In some cases, enterprises struggle with acquiring and managing AI talent in-house and current outsourcing options aren't incentive aligned, leaving them with hefty overhead and maintenance costs associated with updating the models and agents i.e. AI assets. In many cases, businesses sitting on valuable proprietary data don't even know where to start to create value from their data or that their individual datasets, just like user data, are not very useful by itself to build a long lasting moat.
At Reppo, we allow proprietary data owners to simply and securely share the data (not sell their data) with a group of independent modelers and developers, while enabling ownership in the derived Intellectual Property (IP) from their data. In doing so, we are solving three challenges -
Helping businesses acceletate their AI production timelines.
Empowering AI developers to become entrepreneurs on-chain
Addressing the proprietary data challenges of AI training.
On Reppo Network, builders collaborate, co-own, and co-monetize the AI IP they produce with data owners and community contributors, The AI IP is verifiable by anyone, with provenance enforced at each stage of the production lifecycle including fingerprinting data sources, storage and compute providers, data transformations etc. Builders on Reppo also have on-demand access to AI Infrastructure through the ModelRivet engine, where they can merely express their intents and access infra optimized for their use case including but not limited to elastic storage and compute, proof attestation services, out-of-box verifiable inference endpoints etc.
At Reppo, we believe privacy and verifiability are features, not benefits. Ultimately, we need to let the developers and builders decide what's best for them and their users.
Reppo's increases access to both existing infrastructure as well as other collaborators by incentivizing and automating enforcement of ownership, control, and monetization of AI assets i.e. models and agents through technological means. Once deployed on the Reppo Protocol, these assets can be composed infinitely in a permissionless manner while enabling value capture and revenue sharing with data owners and community contributors so that developers can lessn their dependency on hackathon prize money and grants and for the first time, become true owners of the IP they help create.
We believe on-chain data alone is an incomplete to build robust and high performing AI, especially for use cases like DePINs where utility is generated off-chain. We solve this using a network of network appraoch of context-specific Reppo Intelligence Pods, taking a optimistic approach that attaches ownership and reputation to generative and predictive AI built by pod owners. Each pod has individual ownership and monetization pillars, and pod owners actively govern these pillars in accordance with their values and priorities. The protocol, platform, and tools we are building help pod owners accelerate their efforts.
We are driven by making community-led and funded AI entrepreneurship the obvious choice for independent developers as their experimentation and innovation playground.
Our ultimate vision is to see the world's first active inference foundation model come to life, built collaboratively on purpose-built AI models, agents, and systems that are governed and owned by developers who advance builder-owned intelligence with intention to push humanity many steps closer to sovereign AGI.
