what's OpenLayer?

OpenLayer is an interoperable AI data layer that modernizes data flows by enabling users to contribute and validate authentic web data through a Chrome extension while earning points. Developers gain consented access to this verified data for use cases like AI training, user targeting, and feature enhancement, without relying on centralized providers. It generates web proofs to verify user activities across sites—such as task completions or trading history—directly onchain. Deployed as an Actively Validated Service (AVS) on EigenLayer, it secures operations via restaked ETH, creating a decentralized marketplace for data with privacy preserved.

OpenLayer raised $5 million in seed funding.
