Roadmap

Completed, in progress, and planned work — kept in sync with the repository.

Kept in sync with the repository — items appear here only when they exist in code or are explicitly planned. Nothing below is invented for marketing.

Completed

  • RPC Gateway — multi-chain JSON-RPC with provider health monitoring, circuit breakers, failover, and edge caching
  • Revenue engine — per-call USDT metering ($0.00003), immutable revenue events, external/internal revenue separation
  • Credit system — prepaid USDT balances, permissionless RevenueVault V2 deposits, on-chain deposit listener
  • Epoch settlement pipeline — epoch ledger, settlement batches, 50/30/20 split accounting, first USDT claim verified on Polygon mainnet
  • Authentication — API keys, MetaMask sign-to-create wallet-bound keys, HTTP 402 machine onboarding (/v1/machine/register)
  • Admin command center — operator NOC with data-truth-audited metrics, computed health score, demand radar and conversion pipeline
  • Node & developer portals — registration, earnings, usage metering, deposits consoles
  • Monitoring & status — public status page, per-provider health API, measured (never fabricated) uptime/latency
  • Paperclip agent OS foundations — machine-access control plane (hashed tokens, scoped auth, audit chaining)

In progress

  • Production hardening — settlement automation in final verification (dry-run mode with explicit safety gates)
  • Customer onboarding polish — converting free-tier traffic into funded accounts
  • Documentation overhaul — this portal, kept as the single source of truth with the GitHub Wiki as a mirror
  • Infrastructure dashboards — deeper time-series observability

Next milestones

  • Grow external paying customers — the first external customer deposit landed in July 2026; the next milestone is repeatable conversion
  • First fully autonomous machine payment — a machine completing the 402 → register → deposit → call loop with no human involvement
  • Live settlement enablement — funded signer + revenue threshold + human sign-off, then automated on-chain broadcasts
  • Node operator onboarding at scale — grow beyond the current single-digit node count with reputation-weighted routing
  • Multi-provider execution — weighted routing across a larger provider set

Planned (no dates committed)

  • AI inference proxy — GPU workloads with the same metering model
  • Webhook delivery network — reliable delivery with retries and DLQs
  • Distributed compute jobs — serverless functions with per-second billing

Timelines for planned items depend on network growth; we deliberately do not publish quarter commitments we can't verify.
