AIGr.id: Internet of Intelligence - We need your feedback!

Link to the source code
Hackernews announcement

AIGrid represents a fundamental shift from siloed, monolithic AI to an open, decentralized, and networked AI paradigm.

Instead of building big, closed AI systems, OpenOS connects smaller, independent AI clusters into a Global AI Network.

🌐 AIGr.id is a decentralized network of interconnected AI components that coordinate to share data, perform tasks, and compose into higher-level collective intelligence.


🧩 Why AIGrid ?

  • Built as Global public infrastructure for AI - not owned or controlled by any single entity.
  • Works like Commons - shared, contributed to, and improved by a global community.
  • Sovereign - communities to own, control, and govern their AI without external dependence.
  • Open Protocol - Public set of standards that define how objects and actors interact across the network. Promoting Interoperability, coordination, transparency and extensibility.

βš™οΈ AIGr.id is Powered by AIOS (OpenOS.AI) β€” A decentralized AI Operating System for distributed AI networks.

OpenOS.AI is 100% open source and community-driven.


🚧 Current Status

⚠️ Beta Alert

This project is still in beta and not ready for production use.

Testnet is expected in First week of May 2025.

✨ What Can You Do with OpenOS?

  • Connect Kubernetes clusters into a global compute network
  • Deploy your AI models (like LLMs or vision models) as reusable Blocks
  • Deploy multiple blocks on same GPU to save resources
  • Define workflows using vDAGs (virtual Directed Acyclic Graphs)
  • Share and re-use models, data, blocks and compute infrastructure
  • Use Python policies to control how the network behaves
  • Extend your Blocks with third-party tools via init containers
  • Collect and use metrics to make smart decisions and observe the network

🎯 Our Objectives

At OpenOS, we’re building more than just a platform β€” we’re designing the foundation for a plural, sovereign AI future. Our mission is to create AI infrastructure that is:

  • Open β€” accessible, inspectable, and modifiable by anyone
  • Decentralized β€” not controlled by any single company, cloud, or country
  • Composable β€” built from reusable, modular components called Blocks
  • Governable β€” enforceable policies built in as first-class citizens
  • Interoperable β€” works with your own models, data, and systems
  • Collaborative β€” made by and for a global community of contributors

We want to make it easy to:

  • Run large AI models (like LLMs and Vision AI) across many machines
  • Share AI, compute and data infra across organizations
  • Define custom behaviors through simple Python policies
  • Enable new forms of AI collaboration β€” cross-team, cross-cloud, and cross-border
  • Build networks that anyone can join, contribute to, and benefit from

Upcoming activities:

  • πŸ“Š OpenOS vs Ray/Anyscale comparison πŸ—“οΈ ETA May, 2025
  • πŸš€ OpenOS vs NVIDIA Dynamo Inference Server πŸ—“οΈ ETA: May 2025
  • πŸ§ͺ Benchmark results (LLMs, Vision models, and more) πŸ—“οΈ ETA May, 2025
  • πŸ” Platform Security upgrades (RBAC, decentralized ID) πŸ—“οΈ TBA
  • πŸ’Ύ Model/Asset Security πŸ—“οΈ TBA

🀝 Join Us!

OpenOS is community-driven β€” anyone can contribute.

We’re looking for:

  • Designers and Developers
  • Engineers
  • Content Creators
  • Policy, governance, and ethics researchers
  • Builders of all kinds

Get Involved


Together, let’s build the future of open, shared, and sovereign AI.
