Problem Statement
People pay for AI compute but cannot verify what actually ran. Operators receive payment regardless of whether execution was correct or complete. ProofPay escrows ETH at job submission and releases it only after the coordinator � running inside EigenCompute TEE � cryptographically verifies that every shard was processed correctly, all operator signatures check out, and recomposition matches the agreed rule. No valid proof, no payment.
Verifiable sharded AI inference deployed on EigenCompute TEE. Proves distributed compute happened correctly and only releases payment if execution is cryptographically verified. Built on ShardTrace � a distributed inference engine that splits jobs across operators, collects HMAC-signed attestations, verifies proof bundles, and settles payment on-chain via ProofPayEscrow (Sepolia: 0x29c70d2F30C5314932A927b62EB8c4A68F13b41C). The coordinator runs inside EigenCompute TEE so the verification logic itself is tamper-proof. ERC-8004 compliant: agent.json and agent_log.json included in repo with full on-chain activity log.

Planning to extend ProofPay with real model inference via EigenAI, operator stake/slashing, and client-side wallet integration for submitter-funded escrow.
