What is Pinaivu
When you send a request to Pinaivu, here is what happens at a high level: your request arrives at the OpenAI-compatible gateway athttps://api.pinaivu.com/v1, the cryptographically attested coordinator auctions the job to competing GPU node operators, and the winning node runs your model and returns the result directly to your client. The coordinator then settles payment and issues a signed routing receipt tied to a unique request_id.
From your application’s point of view, this looks identical to calling the OpenAI API. Under the hood, you get decentralization, cryptographic attestation, and a verifiable audit trail with every response.
Key features
OpenAI-Compatible API
The gateway at
https://api.pinaivu.com/v1 speaks the OpenAI Chat Completions protocol. Drop in your Pinaivu key and switch models — no code changes required.Verified Inference
Every completed request produces a signed routing receipt. You can cryptographically verify which node ran your inference and inspect the full proof.
Explorer
The public Explorer lets you look up any
request_id to see node activity, payment settlement, and the signed routing receipt.Chat Interface
chat.pinaivu.ai is a ready-made conversational front end for end users, with cross-session memory built in.
How it works
From your perspective as a developer, using Pinaivu involves four steps:Send a request
Call
POST https://api.pinaivu.com/v1/chat/completions with your API key and a model name, exactly as you would with the OpenAI API.The coordinator auctions the job
Pinaivu’s attested coordinator selects a GPU node from the decentralized network based on availability and bid. This happens automatically — you do not need to configure anything.
Receive your response
The winning node runs the model and streams or returns the completion to your client. The response payload matches the OpenAI schema, including a Pinaivu-specific
request_id field.Verify on the explorer
Use the
request_id from the response to look up the full routing receipt on explorer.pinaivu.com — including which node served the request and the signed proof of inference.Where to go next
