Sahara AI

Sahara AI is a decentralized AI platform (backed by Pantera Capital) building infrastructure for the agentic economy: an AI Developer Platform for building agents, managing datasets, and accessing compute; an AI Marketplace for publishing and monetizing AI solutions; a Data Services Platform for collecting, labeling, and validating training data; consumer agents such as Sorin (autonomous trading); and the Sahara blockchain with the $SAHARA token for settlement and governance. Its developer-facing surface is an OpenAI-compatible Compute API that routes inference across multiple upstream providers (OpenAI, Lepton, Together, and others) alongside model- and provider-discovery endpoints, authenticated with an API key.

Sahara AI publishes 1 API on the APIs.io network: Compute API. Tagged areas include Company, Crypto, Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, and Agents.

Sahara AI’s developer surface includes documentation, API reference, getting-started guide, engineering blog, support, pricing, signup flow, and 14 more developer resources.
