Lilypad is a serverless, distributed compute network that will enable internet-scale data processing for AI, ML, and other arbitrary computation. Unleashing idle processing power by leveraging ​​decentralized infrastructure networks, Lilypad unlocks a new marketplace for compute, making AI more accessible, efficient, and transparent for developers and users.

Challenges such as cost, vendor lock-in, and resource intensity impede developers from seamlessly integrating projects that require high-performance computing, such as AI technologies, into their applications. Lilypad mitigates these challenges by providing an independent global compute network accessible to everyone, extending unrestricted, permissionless access to computational power. By enhancing the efficiency, transparency, and accessibility of high-performance computing hardware, Lilypad empowers a multitude of possible applications including AI inferencing, ML training, and providing cross-chain interoperability complement to bridge protocols.
