Release roadmap
What customers can expect from the 17 July invite-only mainnet beta through end-2026: new capabilities, subsidized starter balances, rewards, and wider access.
Omnious opens its invite-only beta on 17 July 2026 at 15:00 BST (14:00 UTC). The beta settles real USDC payments on HyperEVM mainnet from day one; it is not a simulated market.
Mainnet does not mean unrestricted access. The first customers begin with a small, dollar-scale balance subsidized by Omnious, so they can make real paid requests with limited exposure. Invitations, balances, and usage limits expand only as payments, model choice, response quality, and support remain healthy.
After launch, the aim is one focused customer-facing improvement every three or four days. Dates after the beta opening are targets and may move when protecting customer funds or service quality requires it.
Getting beta ready
Complete payment, model availability, and reliability checks before invitations open.
Payment safety
Verify real HyperEVM mainnet settlement at low value, from authorization through signed receipt.
Model availability
Prepare three launch model categories with competitive quotes from independent providers.
Beta experience locked
Freeze the web app, API, payment, invite, and support experience for final testing.
Reliability testing
Test provider interruptions, secure backup recovery, payment reconciliation, and invite controls.
Mainnet invite-only beta
Start with a small founding cohort so every payment, result, and support request gets close attention.
Founding customer cohort
Use open-weight AI through the web app and OpenAI-compatible API, settled in real USDC on HyperEVM.
Transparent AI marketplace
Compare signed provider quotes, pay the disclosed second-score/3 tariff, and receive a signed receipt.
Subsidized starter balance
Each invited customer begins with a small, dollar-scale balance for real mainnet requests and limited initial exposure; exact terms publish before invitations open.
7% platform fee, no hidden spread
Providers receive 93% of the clear price; Omnious succeeds only when settled usage grows.
Invites expand gradually
Raise invite and balance limits only after clean reconciliation, tested recovery, healthy quote depth, response quality, and support stability.
New capabilities every few days
A focused release every three to four days makes each improvement easy to discover, try, and evaluate.
Price breakdowns & receipts
See the winner, disclosed price-setter, final tariff, 7% fee, and signed proof.
GPU points
Mainnet Season One s0-2026.07.7: 1% base earn, 2× first fill, +0.25× sessions, paid-plan boosts, published referral and social rewards, plus one operator-reviewed 250-GPU actionable-feedback reward per wallet per UTC month.
Sessions for agent workflows
Use one budget across a multi-step workflow, with a locked award tariff and unused funds returned at close.
Invite Drops target
Target activation of the Shadow chip-based invite auction. Chips are non-transferable, cannot be purchased, and grant wallet access rather than a resellable code.
More model providers
Simpler Beta allowlist onboarding, clearer quote guidance, and better performance and payout visibility. Funded bonds remain Proposed.
Consistent routing controls
Balanced, lowest-cost, and fastest options consistently use expected cost plus router-measured service.
Images, embeddings & tools
Use the same marketplace and payment flow for more than chat completions.
Budget controls & patient orders
Set target prices and issue API keys with budgets, enforcement, and audit trails.
Broader access, stronger trust
Expand access as model choice, measured service, and supervised evidence processes mature.
Evidence-backed result reviews target
Consider public terms for the approved-wallet, operator-adjudicated Shadow review path. It is not a public bounty or USDC collateral program today.
Independent quality-check proposal
Define reference, privacy, sampling, evidence, appeal, and cost terms before any sampled-audit pilot.
First-party provider research
Evaluate a reference-provider option under a strict no-favoritism rule. No launch, hardware, model, capacity, price, or availability is committed.
Challenge-program decision
Decide whether to advance public evidence rewards after eligibility, review, appeal, legal, and custody terms are approved.
Higher mainnet limits
Increase balance and usage limits after verified recovery, clean reconciliation, and healthy model choice.
Expand what customers can do
Later releases follow demonstrated customer and provider demand; dates remain flexible.
Faster repeat payments
Explore payment channels to reduce overhead and improve privacy; none is active today.
Live-request RFQ research
Evaluate a short sealed response window for specialist work not covered by standing quotes. The Beta hot path remains signed standing quotes.
Provider reliability proposal
Publish collateral, custody, withdrawal, evidence, appeal, and loss terms before accepting any provider deposit. No customer deposits are involved.
Token decision
Publish a separate proposal or explicitly defer. No ticker, supply, allocation, TGE, value, date, or points conversion is promised.
Open provider onboarding target
Consider broader onboarding only after provider safeguards, audits, and dispute handling are proven and published.
Additional payment network
Add another settlement option only when customer or provider demand justifies it.
2027 roadmap update
Publish what expands next based on retention, service quality, model choice, and market health.
What launches on 17 July
The founding cohort can use open-weight AI through the web app and OpenAI-compatible API. Requests are matched off-chain for speed, while payments settle in real USDC on HyperEVM mainnet. Customers see the winning provider quote, the market-clearing price, and a signed receipt.
Access is intentionally limited. Invited customers receive a small Omnious-funded starter balance for real mainnet requests; the final amount and eligibility will be published before invitations open. Balance and usage limits rise only after the service demonstrates clean payments, reliable recovery, useful model choice, and stable support.
On-chain matching, open provider onboarding, automatic dispute payouts, faster payment channels, and token or vault mechanics are not part of the opening beta. If they advance, they will be announced separately with customer terms before activation.

How access and limits expand
- Payment safety: every receipt agrees with settlement, with no unexplained transfer, refund, or provider payout.
- Model choice: customers see competitive quotes, dependable fallback capacity, and useful response quality.
- Real use: repeat paid requests—not sign-ups or a waitlist—show which capabilities should reach more customers.
- Service reliability: backups, payment reconciliation, provider interruptions, and customer support work as expected.
