| Product focus / differentiation | An inference routing market where providers compete on price for the same model. | An agent payment layer that turns $CREDIT, funded by $ORBIO trading fees, into an AI usage balance. |
| Sectors & operating status | Inference routing · Inference APIs Live · $SURPLUS Public usage API exposes completed-day model requests and tokens. Supplier-price routing is the main product; buyer savings are not platform revenue. | Inference routing · Inference APIs · Agent finance Live · $ORBIO Model, tool and agent access plus CREDIT trading and activation are operating, with public daily ledgers and usage. Trading and launchpad income have a different scope from model API charges. |

Coverage and comparison basis
Market data fetched ·
Operating data fetched ·
- 37 projects can belong to several of 13 sectors, including inference, compute, training, agents, data and verification. Pre-token projects are excluded; beta or unverified activity is labeled separately.
- Key features sum up, in one sentence, where a project sits in its sector, what sets it apart and any token buyback or burn. Mechanics and caveats are in the detail view. It is not an independent benchmark or certified competitive ranking.
- Revenue, usage spending, rental GMV and a single customer’s spending are kept separate. Unknown revenue is not filled with zero. Policy-based calculations are labeled as estimates with their assumptions and limits, apart from measured revenue.
- Model tokens, requests, GPU-hours, proofs, data reads and agent jobs have different units, so they are not summed or ranked. Chain transactions and token burns are not counted as paid AI usage. Detail entries flag unclear monthly boundaries, rounded values and historical operator reports.
- Only 6 Bittensor subnets with processed workloads, paying-customer cases or GPU rentals are included (Chutes, Targon, Lium, Engy, SayGM, Green Compute). Code, miner counts, emissions and token trading alone do not qualify. Public APIs may still be operator aggregates rather than independently audited figures.
- MC, FDV and funding are secondary context. Valuations of subnet alpha and the parent network, or of GPU supply and the inference services above it, are not totaled. Funding follows its stated round or cumulative basis and is not company valuation.
- Prices, MC and FDV are collected daily at 00:28 UTC (09:28 UTC+9); operating APIs every Sunday at the same time. Product descriptions and funding are reviewed separately. Operating metrics do not update live while the page stays open.
