🤗 Welcome, Compute Users!

We’re so glad you’re here. Whether you’re an AI developer, a data scientist, a DeFi builder, or just curious about running powerful jobs on decentralized infrastructure, you belong in the Ciro community.

🌱 Our Story: Built for Real-World Needs

Ciro Network was born out of necessity—on the factory floor, not in a hackathon. We saw how hard it was to access affordable, reliable compute for real-world AI and data jobs. So we built Ciro: a decentralized network where anyone can access high-performance compute, pay as they go, and trust the results.

🤔 What Does It Mean to Be a User?

As a Ciro user, you:

• Run AI, data, or compute jobs on a global network of GPUs
• Pay only for what you use—no subscriptions, no lock-in
• Choose your payment chain: Starknet, Ethereum, Polygon, and more
• Get verifiable results with cryptographic proofs (ZK-ML)
• Join a movement for open, accessible, and trustworthy compute

No blockchain or AI expertise required—just a need for compute and a willingness to try something new!

🌐 Multichain Access & Payment

Ciro is built for the multichain future. You can:

• Pay for jobs with CIRO, USDC, or other tokens on Starknet, Ethereum, Polygon
• Bridge your funds to the chain that fits your needs
• Access compute globally—no matter where you are

🚀 Step-by-Step: Run Your First Compute Job

1. Sign Up & Get Tokens

• Visit faucet.testnet.ciro.network for testnet tokens
• Connect your wallet (Starknet, MetaMask, or WalletConnect)

2. Choose Your Payment Chain

• Decide where you want to pay/settle (Starknet, Ethereum, Polygon)
• Bridge funds if needed (see docs.ciro.network/payments)

3. Submit Your Job

• Use the Ciro web app, CLI, or SDK:

# Example: Submit an AI inference job
ciro-cli submit-job --model image_recognition_v1 --input ./my-image.jpg --pay-with starknet

Or use the web UI to upload your data and select your model.

4. Track Your Results

• Monitor job status in real time:

ciro-cli job-status --job-id 1234

• Get notified when your job is complete
• Download results and cryptographic proofs

5. Pay & Settle

• Pay only for completed jobs
• Settle on your preferred chain
• Bridge results or funds as needed

💡 Example Use Cases

• AI Inference: Image, text, or audio recognition at scale
• Data Processing: ETL, analytics, and batch jobs
• DeFi Oracles: Verifiable AI-powered price feeds
• Research: Run experiments without buying hardware
• On-Chain Games: Trustless, provable AI moves
