API/SDK v0.5 Model - A Base Layer For all Agents
Last updated
Last updated
REI acts as a base layer infrastructure platform, providing foundational API services that enable AI agents to interact and operate. It serves as "infrastructure's infrastructure," offering an alternative to traditional AI APIs like OpenAI and Anthropic, as well as many others.
The Core Architecture APIs are the highest value proposition because they define how systems fundamentally think and process information - something that can't be replicated by just adding more tools. While frameworks and apps can be replicated or competed with, the core cognitive architecture is what determines the ceiling of what's possible for everything built on top of it.
Model Components
Base Layer Infrastructure: Core Architecture and Cognitive Engine
API Alternative: Alternative infrastructure layer to existing AI APIs like OpenAI, Anthropic and a multitude of other providers
Dual Token Model: Both ETH and REI are equally Required for Usage
Multiple Access Points: SDK and web interface for different integration needs
Open Builder Ecosystem: Enables various participants to build and contribute
Builders create tools and applications on REI, expanding the platform's capabilities. This attracts additional developers, strengthening the core infrastructure and enabling better development tools. The improved platform naturally appeals to other builders, thus continuing the cycle.
Builder activity drives token utility and value appreciation, generating resources for platform development. These resources enable improvements that attract more builders and expand use cases, creating sustainable economic growth.
As more applications launch on REI, user adoption grows. The expanding user base increases network value, attracting more builders to develop on the platform. New applications bring more users, strengthening the network further.
