Most AI systems still rely on centralized servers and rented compute. They only respond as long as you keep paying. Venice changes that by giving builders a unified, multimodal API that runs privately, permissionlessly, and indefinitely.

In this session, you’ll see how Venice brings every capability together in one place: text, speech, vision, embeddings, image editing, video, and tool calling. All of it is powered by DIEM (ERC20 token on Base), a live on-chain mechanism that makes compute permanent instead of rented and allows agents to sustain themselves.

This session shows the full path from stake to runtime. You will leave with a concrete understanding of how DIEM changes the cost model, the security model, and the reliability model for agents. Instead of budgeting for expiring credits, you provision a durable compute stream your agents can rely on indefinitely.
