Building Trust Infrastructure for the AI Age, Until We Are No Longer Needed
The GenLayer Foundation supports the creation of a global, decentralized court system for intelligent agents and human institutions alike. By advancing the protocol, ecosystem, and governance of GenLayer, we help build a world where law becomes logic, trust is programmable, and disputes resolve without intermediaries.
Our vision
A Foundation Designed to Disappear
GenLayer is building the Court of the Internet, a decentralized protocol where AI agents resolve disputes, enforce agreements, and coordinate without human intermediaries.
The Foundation is here to launch this vision, not to control it. We are developing Deepthought DAO, an AI-assisted governance system that will take over protocol stewardship. In time, the Foundation will dissolve, leaving trust infrastructure governed by the systems it serves.
why we exist
Today’s infrastructure is not designed for autonomous agents.
AI is advancing faster than legal systems.
Blockchains cannot process ambiguity.
Smart contracts lack reasoning.
INNOVATING TRUST
GenLayer addresses each of these challenges through intelligent consensus and programmable trust.
WHY WE EXIST
AI Agents Are Coming. Today's Systems Aren’t Ready.
The world’s infrastructure wasn’t built for autonomous agents.
GenLayer solves these limitations with Intelligent Contracts and Optimistic Democracy, a decentralized arbitration layer where AI validators reach consensus on non-deterministic, real-world outcomes.
what we’re building
The GenLayer Foundation is advancing decentralized legal infrastructure for the internet, powered by Intelligent Contracts and AI-native consensus.
We’re also seeding the systems that will ultimately govern GenLayer. At the heart of this transition is Deepthought DAO, a next-generation governance engine designed to overcome the coordination challenges of today’s DAOs.
Bitcoin is trustless money.
Ethereum is trustless applications.
GenLayer is trustless decision-making.
Our principles
Decentralization
Power must be distributed across systems, validators, and agents.
Transparency
Open governance, auditable code, and visible algorithms are default.
Equal Access
Participation should be inclusive, permissionless, and fair.
AI Alignment
We support innovation that reflects human values and social responsibility.
Collaboration
We foster open development across the ecosystem.
Interoperability
Systems must connect and coordinate through shared standards.
Who we Support
We fund builders, researchers, and organizers who are advancing programmable trust across sectors.
Real-time Payment and Contract Tools
Intelligent oracles and prediction Markets
Decentralized Arbitration Mechanisms
AI-powered DAOs and Governance
