Providers and subnet evidence
TAONIC runs no Bittensor infrastructure of its own. It is a customer of each provider below, through that provider’s public API. This page documents every route TAONIC has an adapter for; the live state of each is on Routes.

Chutes runs model inference on Bittensor subnet 64: miners serve the models and validators decide which miners serve. TAONIC reaches it two ways: through OpenRouter, pinned to Chutes with fallbacks off, and directly.

- Server secret
OPENROUTER_API_KEY. An OpenRouter API key from openrouter.ai/keys. The account is free to create; paid credit is needed for the Chutes endpoint, at Chutes’ own per-token rate. - Cost
- Chutes’ own rate through OpenRouter: $0.12 per million input tokens and $0.37 per million output, about $0.0004 an answer, plus OpenRouter’s credit fee. Paid by TAONIC; checked 2026-09-16.
- Provenance
- OpenRouter names the provider that served each answer, and TAONIC refuses the answer unless that provider is Chutes. Neither OpenRouter nor Chutes publishes which miner hotkey served a request, so no answer is attributed to a particular miner.
- Privacy
- The question is sent to OpenRouter, then to Chutes, under their own terms.

engy is the subnet 53 service. Energon is an independent, pre-launch front end for engy with its own token and its own reserve; it is not part of TAONIC and TAONIC is not part of it. The only relationship that exists is the one above: an engy adapter in TAONIC’s registry that has never been configured or connected.
What an integration could look like
| Layer | State |
|---|---|
| TAONIC routes compatible text work to engy on subnet 53 | ADAPTER READY |
| TAONIC records the provider cost and route evidence for each such request | DESIGN |
| engy is paid for completed work, as any provider is | DESIGN |
| A provider-growth allocation, only under an explicit written agreement that defines custody, ownership, accounting and withdrawal rights | UNAVAILABLE |
There is no self-serve onboarding. A subnet service can be routed to when it serves a documented, reachable API that its miners answer, publishes terms that allow resale or display, and returns enough provenance to attribute an answer. Proposals go to contact@taonic.tech.
Every state on this page matches Status. Where they ever differ, Status is right and this page is a defect.
