TARS forms the foundation for AI commodities to be built & exchanged, creating a symbiotic app ecosystem that connects over 1 million users on the Solana blockchain.

Artificial Intelligence has rapidly evolved into a driving force behind human progress. TARS is positioned as a Solana technology-stack that serves consumer AI, enterprise agents, autonomous applications & tokenised AI assets.

The main issue across the available AI infrastructure is a lack of advanced applications, permissionless agents & low-fee accessibility. This limits a wide-range of products that can serve the growing user demands. Thereby, flooding the market with limited-social agents that are relatively centralized & limited in their capabilities.

Builders can leverage TARS to create permissionless, intelligent applications that run on the TARS infrastructure, as well as its proprietary AI frameworks, Sona & Akira, that are readily available in the AI Market. The high-speed nature of the Solana-blockchain enables the modular components of TARS to run independently as a reliable, advanced, low-fee infrastructure for decentralized AI innovation.

## AI Infrastructure:

The aim of TARS is to provide AI infrastructure to Solana’s 1M users ensuring economic growth and incentives. Different verticals of TARS are:

1. Framework
2. Application
3. Aggregation
4. Verification

For each layer, TARS is offering a unique web3 solution.
