Welcome to bitgrit

A Blockchain Project for Democratizing Artificial Intelligence

The growing value and significance of artificial intelligence (AI) is undeniable. Yet, as its value skyrockets, it's increasingly monopolised by a handful of large enterprises, leaving smaller organisations at a disadvantage. This is especially prevalent in generative AI, with the big corporations monopolising AI use cases. The result is often that smaller organisations cannot afford data consulting services to drive business decisions and talented data scientists frequently go unrecognised and under-compensated for their pivotal contributions. It is essential to ensure such a revolutionary tool such as generative AI, should be accessible by everyone, as the internet was in the 90s and early 2000s.

Therefore at bitgrit, we believe that AI should be for all. Whether it's small business teams with untapped data or global conglomerates, everyone should reap the rewards of the automation and efficiency AI offers. Furthermore, data scientists and engineers deserve to share in the value they create with their innovative AI algorithms.

To bring this vision to life, we are launching the BGR Network, designed to cultivate a thriving AI ecosystem. This innovative platform will serve as the backbone for a wide range of AI applications, with external infrastructure providers offering features such as AI competitions, a marketplace for AI models and services, and a Job Board to connect top talent with leading organisations. Our primary focus is on fostering a collaborative environment where AI professionals can connect, innovate, and grow. By integrating these diverse elements, we aim to quantify the value of AI, driving the industry forward and unlocking new opportunities for all stakeholders.

To truly democratise AI, bitgrit integrates blockchain technology on the platform, ensuring a fair distribution of value between competition sponsors and data scientists. This is best represented by our BGR tokens (refer to tokenomics sections for more details).

In this rapidly growing industry, there is a pressing need for an interactive platform that serves corporate clients, small business owners, AI enthusiasts and data scientists.

In response, we’re leveraging blockchain technology to enhance transparency and accountability to this industry. Our BGR token stands as a testament to this commitment, anchored by the value of datasets and models within our platform.

As bitgrit expands, we promise an enriched spectrum of high-quality data, innovative algorithms, and sought-after talent. We’re strategically poised to amplify these services, nurturing the perpetual growth of our expansive network. Within our ecosystem, all stakeholders thrive. From companies submitting problem statements and datasets to data scientists honing their skills and reaping financial rewards; from customers acquiring models on an AI Marketplace to our invaluable partners who make it all possible. Collaboration is our core currency, and we invite you to join us and embrace it as your own.
