Palliora AI is built directly on Palliora’s core primitives, not a separate protocol. These are the ones worth reading before you go deeper into Palliora AI specifically. Full explanations live in Learn; this page is just a map.
  • Compute Contracts — every model call and tool call is one of these: what runs, on what input, under what terms, agreed before execution starts. The mechanism behind tool calls and agent runs and provenance.
  • Guardian — the nodes that coordinate access to encrypted inputs, run confidential compute, and enforce a contract’s terms as a quorum. The Guardian running a model inside a TEE is a Guardian doing this job.
  • Confidential compute — the TEE execution mode Palliora AI uses to keep a prompt private from the compute node’s own operator, not just from other participants.
  • Threshold encryption — how a prompt stays encrypted until a Guardian quorum decrypts it inside the compute pipeline. The mechanism behind encrypted compute.
  • Accountable privacy — Palliora’s broader privacy model: sealed by default, revealed only through due process. Palliora AI inherits this rather than defining its own.
  • Fees and incentives — how a Compute Contract is priced and who gets paid, including for an inference request.
