Show HN: Eidon AI – Decentralized AI Network for Next-Generation On-Chain Models

Hey HN, we’re thrilled to launch Eidon AI today, a decentralized AI network that rewards you for contributing real-world data through Quests. Think of Quests as a decentralized bounty system, but instead of slaying monsters, you’re helping train the next generation of AI by capturing frontier data, all while owning the data you collect and earning a stake in the future of AI.

We built Eidon because we believe AI should be decentralized and uncensored to unlock the full potential of humanity. Today, big tech monopolizes both data and models, giving nothing back to the people who were used to create it while imposing a lobotomized, censored version of reality. We’re here to change that, putting the power in your hands. You decide what data to share, and you’re rewarded for your data contributions and the subsequent value generated by the models built from that data.

Here’s how it works: The network assigns 'Quests' for specific data like images, video, and audio covering multiple environments, actions, locations, cultures, and perspectives of reality. You use the Eidon App to complete these Quests by uploading the requested data. Our AI Agent system verifies the quality and ensures the data is free from spam, enabling labeling-free collection. You’re rewarded based on the value, novelty, and demand for your contributions.

But our focus goes beyond just data collection. The long-term goal is to create fully on-chain AI models using this real-world, multimodal data. These models will be uncensored, permissionless, private, and highly personalized grounded in the diverse reality around us.

We see Eidon as the go-to platform for decentralized AI data collection whether it’s for training humanoids or building more personalized AI assistants. And for us, it’s really about what kind of AI future we want to create, dystopia or utopia? The AI is the blockchain, the blockchain is the AI. Eidon wants to see a decentralized, permissionless future where AI empowers human potential instead of controlling it.

We’d love your feedback! What kind of quests would you like to see? How would you use this decentralized data? If you're a company or individual interested in specific types of data, we're open to discussing any requests and would be happy to set up a conversation with your team. Email us at request@eidon.ai
