Compute trades
on trust.
RAW settles
on proof.
The settlement rail for the compute economy. A RAW contract pays only for what was proven to be delivered — AI inference or GPU compute — settled atomically on Canton Network.
Compute is the largest commodity market forming without a verified delivery mechanism
The world's largest derivatives exchanges announced compute futures within the same period. They declared compute a tradeable commodity. Neither contract specifies a delivery-verification mechanism. The physical leg does not exist.
Buyers cannot verify what was delivered
Delivery claims are self-reported. Invoices, screenshots, and goodwill are the audit trail. A buyer of AI inference or GPU capacity has no independent, machine-verifiable record.
Producers cannot prove performance
A mid-market data center's delivery history is trapped in private billing systems — invisible to new customers, lenders, and insurers. Capital concentrates in hyperscalers by default.
Financial contracts have nothing to converge on
The new compute futures are cash-settled against price indices. Every mature commodity market ultimately required a verified physical delivery mechanism. Compute does not yet have one.
Connect. Contract. Deliver. Settle.
Every element subordinates to the integrity of the delivery record.
Connect
The RAW Box signs at the source.
A hardware-secured device deploys at the producer's site. It reads delivery telemetry from the inference serving layer or GPU management stack, and signs every reading with keys generated inside its trusted execution environment. Keys never leave the device.
Contract
Daml templates on Canton Network.
Buyer and producer enter a physically-settled delivery contract. Asset DNA maintains an append-only lifecycle record per physical asset — identity, attestation history, and every verified delivery proof.
Deliver
Signed evidence accumulates against the contract.
Signed delivery evidence accumulates on-ledger. Provider-side and consumer-side telemetry cross-check each other.
Settle
Atomic delivery-versus-payment, non-custodial.
An independent assurance layer verifies usage records, then payment moves directly from buyer to producer in regulated stablecoins. RAW never holds customer funds. Under-delivery automatically reduces the payout.
What RAW is, and what it isn't
RAW resembles three categories from a distance. It is none of them.
| Category | What that typically means | How RAW differs |
|---|---|---|
| Compute marketplace | Takes a position or inventory; is a counterparty to the trade | Never a counterparty. Buyers and producers still find and negotiate with each other; RAW attests delivery and settles the contract |
| Decentralized compute network | Coordinates permissionless supply with no institutional settlement layer | Attests delivery from producers who choose to connect, then settles on Canton Network — a regulated, permissioned rail |
| Compute futures contract | Settles against a price index, with no physical delivery check | Is the physical leg: proof that AI inference or GPU compute was actually delivered |
Two verified products. One settlement rail.
Because these products share one rail, parties can operate across asset classes — both contracts attested by the same on-site device.
Verified AI Inference
Measured in millions of tokens per hour — input and output — with throughput and TTFT attested at the edge.
Verified GPU Compute
The attested GPU-hour: one hour of a specified accelerator, device class, and configuration. Heterogeneity disclosed at contract formation.
The world's largest derivatives exchanges launched compute futures. Verified physical delivery remains unclaimed.
Both futures markets are cash-settled against price indices. Neither specifies a delivery-verification mechanism. RAW is the physical leg.

Built for three kinds of counterparties
Monetize idle GPU capacity
Serve verified inference under your own brand while every delivery claim is independently attested before payment moves.
Turn utilization into a financial asset
A verified track record of delivered GPU-hours becomes portable, financeable proof — visible to lenders and institutional buyers.
Buy output, not a price proxy
Get programmable, verified exposure to compute output instead of a cash-settled price proxy, on the same regulated rail your counterparties already use.
Turn your power infrastructure into automatic earnings with verified proof
RAW Protocol turns inference and compute delivery into programmable financial instruments on Canton Network — giving institutional capital verified, real-time exposure to physical compute output, settled atomically on institutional-grade rails.

Verified at the meter
Energy and delivery telemetry attested at the point of generation — before it ever reaches a contract.
Non-custodial payout
Yield flows directly to the facility operator's wallet. RAW never holds or pools operator funds.
Institutional-grade rails
Settlement rides the same Canton Network infrastructure trusted across regulated capital markets.
Facility onboarding
RAW Box hardware installs alongside existing metering and SCADA systems — no facility downtime required.

Industry veterans across energy development, distributed systems, and large-scale hardware networks.
