Decentralized upscaling and compression.

The that turns low-resolution video into 4K and crunches large files down to a fraction of their size, with miners competing on objective video-quality metrics rather than subjective taste.
What is Vidaio
Vidaio is a Bittensor subnet for AI-driven video processing. Miners run upscaling and compression models that take low-resolution or large-file videos and return higher-resolution or smaller-file outputs. Validators benchmark each miner using established perceptual quality metrics, then weight the network accordingly.
The simple version: Like the upscaling feature in NVIDIA's RTX video tools, but distributed across a network of miners competing to do it best.
Centralized equivalent: Think Topaz Video AI for upscaling and Mux or Bitmovin for compression, but as a single open network anyone can plug into.
How it works:
- Miners receive video chunks, either from validator benchmarks or real user uploads, and run their models to upscale low-resolution clips back to high resolution, or compress high-quality clips while preserving visual fidelity.
- Validators score outputs using VMAF and PieAPP, two industry-standard perceptual quality metrics, and rank miners on accuracy for upscaling and on quality-to-size ratio for compression.
