Flow

1

Market opens

Landing page, dashboard, pilot forms, and public proof points.

2

AI counter

One simple app/API with keys, usage records, and metered usage.

3

Provider dock

Selected Ocean providers run real jobs behind Fish.

4

Proof board

Supply, demand, reliability, and payouts become visible.

5

OCEAN credits

Staked OCEAN can earn AI credits from funded budgets.

6

Provider bonds

Providers can bond OCEAN for routing eligibility.

7

Full loop

Useful app, API, privacy, billing, and routing layers.

8

Tokenized credits

Only later, after usage and settlement are real.

Now

Make demand visible

Show the market clearly: who wants AI, who has compute, and where the first route can work.

Next

Ship the AI counter

A useful chat/API surface comes before complex token mechanics.

Then

Pay real providers

Provider payouts come from usage, reserves, or funded budgets, not from staking magic.

Later

Add stronger utility

Credits, bonds, and capacity markets make more sense once the product has traffic.

Full product loop

Build the whole loop.

Fish should cover the useful product layers: app, API, billing, privacy, routing, credits, staking, provider payments, and proof.

Opening

App + API

Chat, model menu, API keys, usage dashboard, and credit balance.

Pilot

Billing

Internal credits first, then grants, top-ups, subscriptions, and usage records.

Pilot

Routing

Ocean providers, outside AI, provider preference, and cost-aware backup routes.

Staged

Privacy

Outside AI, private Ocean providers, stronger runners, then hardware privacy much later.

Pilot

OCEAN staking

Funded-budget credits from locked OCEAN, tracked with clear caps.

Later

Credit minting

Lock, mint, spend, burn, and unlock only after settlement is safe.

Later

Provider bonds

Bonds can boost eligibility, but score and reliability cap the boost.

Later

Capacity pool

Unused credits may route demand only after legal and reserve controls.

Last

Tokenized credits

No token launch until usage, reserves, audits, and legal rails exist.

Roadmap rule: users buy AI, providers get paid, and OCEAN utility grows only after the loop proves itself.
