# Chainbase

> Chainbase: where AI agents get their data, from crypto to the web.

Chainbase is a data network that gives developers and AI agents access to on-chain and off-chain data through APIs and datasets.

Chainbase enables developers to access structured blockchain data across multiple networks through APIs without running their own infrastructure. The platform extends beyond on-chain data to include web search, social platforms, and market data sources through a unified integration. This dual-layer approach allows builders to consolidate data access rather than managing separate infrastructure for blockchain and external sources.

## Products

- [Chainbase Crypto Data Platform](https://thegrid.id/profiles/chainbase): Chainbase Crypto Data Platform provides APIs, datasets, and data syncing for indexing and transforming large-scale on-chain data across multiple blockchains. (OnChain Data API, Live, Main Product)
- [Theia (Crypto World Model)](https://thegrid.id/profiles/chainbase): An AI model built to learn blockchain data and enable simulation and reasoning within the native blockchain environment, supporting AI applications in crypto gaming, DeFi, security, and asset management. (AI Agent, Discontinued)
- [Chainbase Network](https://thegrid.id/profiles/chainbase): Chainbase Network is a decentralized omnichain data network that makes crypto data programmable and composable across blockchains. (OnChain Data API, Live)
- [AgentKey](https://thegrid.id/profiles/chainbase): AgentKey is a marketplace that gives AI agents access to tools and live data through one interface. Agents can search the web, read pages, reach social platforms, and query crypto and market data, with usage-based pricing. It supports MCP and works with various agent runtimes. (Off-Chain Data APIs and Services, Live)

## Assets

- [C (C)](https://thegrid.id/profiles/chainbase): C is the utility and governance token of Chainbase Network. It is used to access and query datasets, participate in governance, and pay fees for data services on the platform. Validators and operators stake C tokens to maintain the network and data processing workflows, while delegators can stake their tokens to back trusted participants and earn rewards. (Utility)
