Last updated 8 months ago

OpenLayer is a modular authentic data layer aiming to bring trustworthy data to both on-chain and off-chain applications.

This includes data sitting on public internet and accessible to everyone but the smart contracts, as well as data that are owned by the users themselves within their various accounts, it could even include data that does not exist online today.

On the other side of the market, OpenLayer serves a variety of use cases such as

  • On-chain applications that need accurate and authentic data inputs

  • AI model training that takes legit data from online and offline sources

  • Companies looking to bootstrap their platform by leveraging user identity and reputation on other existing platforms

Connecting data supply and demand, OpenLayer provides a modular solution to coordinate data collection, validation, transformation, allowing flexible combinations among sources, consumers, and specific verification methods.

OpenLayer builds on top of affordable economic security provided by restaked assets, as well as various data availability and interoperability solutions so that the solution can easily scale to many different networks.
