By who you are
Now works today. Later is proposed or switched off: nothing there exists to join, and nothing on this site asks you to.
WhoNowLater
Users
People with a question.
Now
Ask TAONIC
Ask for an answer, check a claim or read event forecasts, free while charging is off. The answer comes back with the route that served it. Search, images, speech and matching wait for their routes.
Paid requests◇PROPOSEDA proposed $0.003 per successful answer, with a free allowance whose size is not decided. Charging is off, and no payment method exists.
Developers
People building on the gateway.
Now
Integrate the API
POST and GET /api/intelligence, GET /api/network, GET /api/accounting and GET /api/account. Documented, unauthenticated, rate-limited, and free while charging is off.
Accounts and API keys‖OFFBuilt and switched off. There is nothing to sign up for, and every request today is anonymous and rate-limited.
Providers and subnet miners
People who run a service, a subnet or a miner.
Now
Propose a service or subnet route
There is no formal onboarding for providers. If you run a service or subnet with a documented API that could answer a kind of question, write to contact@taonic.tech with its documentation. TAONIC pays providers as a customer; that is not a partnership.
TAONIC does not operate a Bittensor subnet. Mining participation occurs through external subnets under their own registration, scoring and reward systems; there is nothing to mine on TAONIC, and each subnet pays its own miners.
Provider incentives◇PROPOSEDThe proposed token allocation sets aside 15% for ecosystem and provider incentives. No program, terms or payment exists, and any provider allocation would need a written agreement.
Future governance participants
People following the proposed economic layer.
Now
Inspect status
Every component of TAONIC with its state and the evidence behind it, from the gateway to the parts of the economic design that are not deployed.
TAON token×NOT DEPLOYEDA proposed token, not deployed. Holding it would give no claim on the reserve, no revenue share and no yield. $TAON is a proposed ticker and is not deployed.
Governance◇PROPOSEDA proposed 3-of-5 multisig behind a 7-day timelock. No signer set exists, and there is no public governance role, vote or delegation to take part in.
Staking×NOT DEPLOYEDNot part of version one: the proposed design has no staking, claims or holder yield.
Reserve participation×NOT DEPLOYEDNot available. No onchain reserve exists, and no TAO has been acquired.
Liquidity provision×NOT DEPLOYEDNot available. No TAON / TAO pool exists, and version one proposes protocol-owned liquidity only.
◇IN DEVELOPMENTEconomic layer in development: today you can ask, inspect and integrate, and everything financial is a proposal.
Common questions
Is TAONIC a Bittensor subnet?
No. TAONIC is an intelligence router: it sends each question to a provider or Bittensor subnet service built for that kind of work (Numinous on subnet 6, Desearch on subnet 22, Synth on subnet 50, engy on subnet 53, Chutes on subnet 64).
Does asking a question cost or earn anything?
No. Asking is free while charging is off, and a question neither costs nor pays out any TAO.
Is the economic layer live?
No, it is in development. The TAONIC product software exists. The financial protocol is not yet deployed. Every part of it is listed above with its state. Read the proposed loop →
Disclosure
TAONIC, pronounced Tao-nik, is an independent intelligence router, not affiliated with or endorsed by the Bittensor Foundation, Robinhood Markets, Inc., or any provider it routes to. It is not a Bittensor subnet and performs no validator, miner or emissions role. No audit has been performed. $TAON · PROPOSED. TAONIC’s intelligence gateway is live. Its economic layer is in development: the TAON token, a TAON/TAO market, a reserve and staking are not deployed. Not an offer, solicitation or financial advice.
