# Huddle01 > DePIN for RTC Huddle01 operates a decentralized real-time communication network routing audio and video through distributed media nodes for low-latency connectivity. Huddle01 operates a decentralized real-time communication network powered by geographically distributed media nodes that encode, decode, and route audio and video data. The network enables secure peer-to-peer communication without centralized servers through community-run node infrastructure contributing bandwidth. Developers integrate real-time audio and video capabilities into applications using SDKs supporting JavaScript, React, React Native, Flutter, Unity, and Kotlin. - Type: Company - Sector: Infrastructure - Status: Active - Founded: 2020-01-01 - Profile: https://thegrid.id/profiles/huddle01 ## Products - [Huddle01 dRTC Network](https://thegrid.id/profiles/huddle01): A decentralized physical infrastructure network providing real-time communication capabilities through geographically distributed media nodes that encode, decode, mix, and route audio-video data. The network operates across Europe, Singapore, Asia, and North America's West Coast with sub-100ms latency through hyperlocalized mesh routing. Media node operators contribute bandwidth and computing resources while earning token incentives based on uptime and performance metrics. (DePin, Live, Main Product) - [Huddle01 Meet](https://thegrid.id/profiles/huddle01): A video conferencing application providing audio and video meetings with wallet-based authentication, token-gated access controls, multi-platform livestreaming to Twitter, YouTube, and Twitch, and recording storage through decentralized protocols. The application routes communication through the Huddle01 dRTC Network's distributed node infrastructure rather than centralized cloud services. (Online Retail Platform, Live) - [Huddle01 SDK](https://thegrid.id/profiles/huddle01): A software development kit enabling integration of decentralized real-time audio and video communication into web and mobile applications. The SDK provides APIs and hooks for JavaScript, React, React Native, Flutter, Unity, and Kotlin platforms with methods for room management, audio-video stream handling, peer connection control, and data messaging over the Huddle01 dRTC Network. (Developer Tooling, Live) - [Huddle Cloud](https://thegrid.id/profiles/huddle01): A compute infrastructure service routing workloads through the Huddle01 decentralized node network. The platform provides computational resources for real-time applications including communication, gaming, finance, and AI inference with reduced operational costs compared to centralized cloud providers. (Compute Network, Live) - [HUDL Chain](https://thegrid.id/profiles/huddle01): An Ethereum-compatible Layer 2 blockchain built using Arbitrum Orbit technology for the Huddle01 dRTC network. The chain provides settlement infrastructure for HUDL token transactions, media node operations, and decentralized real-time communication services with testnet currently active. (L2, Open Beta) ## Assets - [HUDL (HUDL)](https://thegrid.id/profiles/huddle01): HUDL is the utility token of the Huddle01 dRTC Network. It is used for paying network services, staking for media node operation, and rewarding node operators who contribute bandwidth to route real-time audio and video data. The network employs a dynamic mint and burn mechanism that mints tokens to reward media nodes based on bandwidth contribution and service quality, while burning tokens proportional to revenue generated from network usage.
