Marketplace

The Marketplace is where users discover and license AI models and datasets. It’s a space where creators will be able to promote and earn revenue from their models and datasets, while others can easily leverage these resources. This exchange will not only helps users generate revenue but also creates a community where people can learn from each other and talk about "vertical" AI. This is essential for the growth of Vertical's platform.

How It Works

The Marketplace offers value for both creators and buyers:

• Creators can list their models or datasets directly from the Studio for licensing or datasets for sale.

• Buyers can browse through the Marketplace to find models and datasets for various applications such as image recognition, language processing, or predictive analytics.

Key features:

• Model Listings: Each model has a profile page with performance metrics, use cases, pricing, and API documentation, giving buyers all the information they need.

• Search and Filters: Users can search for models and filter by criteria such as performance, industry, or price.

• Secure Transactions: Blockchain technology on the Base Layer 2 network ensures secure, low-fee, global payments. In the future, we will find solutions how to enable fiat payments too on our platform.

Creators will be able to monetize their models by licensing them to multiple users, who pay for API access to integrate the models into their applications, allowing the creator to generate continuous revenue. The Marketplace is essential to Vertical’s ecosystem, connecting creators and users in a global exchange of AI models, supporting collaboration and innovation across industries. Its significance lies in:

• Global Participation: Blockchain-based transactions enable worldwide access without the need for traditional financial systems.

• Economic Opportunity: Independent developers and small businesses can monetize their models without the overhead of setting up a business and traditional infrastructure.

• Innovation: By sharing and accessing AI models, the Marketplace accelerates AI adoption and innovation across industries.
