Propolis is the orchestration layer that coordinates decentralized compute for autonomous intelligence within the AI Protocol. It acts as the system that aligns onchain economic logic with off-chain GPU and storage networks, enabling AI Agents and decentralized applications such as Noah’s Ark and ALI Agents to reliably access the computational resources required to run large models, perform inference, and persist data.
Rather than operating as a centralized execution environment, Propolis coordinates workloads across distributed GPU clusters and storage providers, ensuring that compute is provisioned, scheduled, and fulfilled in a trust-minimized manner. Through this coordination, AI assets can directly consume compute resources without dependence on a single service provider or centralized infrastructure.
In this architecture, AI Agents and dApps are no longer limited by third-party policies, availability constraints, or infrastructure fragility. Propolis enables a resilient, protocol-aligned system where compute and storage scale dynamically through decentralized coordination, while remaining economically integrated with onchain logic. As a result, Propolis serves as the foundational coordination substrate that sustains agentic intelligence over time, allowing autonomous AI systems to operate continuously, adapt to demand, and evolve as sovereign participants within the AI Protocol ecosystem.
