# Tensorplex > Building Infrastructure for Decentralised AI Tensorplex builds infrastructure and applications for decentralized AI development using blockchain technology and DeFi principles. Tensorplex helps AI developers access decentralized infrastructure by providing liquid staking, trading platforms, and validation services. You can stake TAO tokens for rewards, trade dTAO on network subnets, and participate in AI training through human-generated datasets. Tensorplex bridges traditional AI development with Web3 technologies through cross-chain compatibility and validator operations. - Type: Company - Sector: Developer Tooling - Status: Active - Founded: 2023-11-01 - Profile: https://thegrid.id/profiles/tensorplex ## Products - [Tensorplex Stake](https://thegrid.id/profiles/tensorplex): Tensorplex Stake implements liquid staking through cross-chain bridging infrastructure, enabling TAO token deposits for reward-bearing stTAO tokens. The system facilitates asset bridging across multiple networks while maintaining validator staking rewards and cross-chain liquidity. (Liquid Staking, Live, Main Product) - [Backprop Finance](https://thegrid.id/profiles/tensorplex): Backprop Finance implements decentralized exchange functionality through automated market maker contracts, enabling dTAO token trading and subnet analytics. The system provides real-time price discovery across network subnets while facilitating liquidity provision and governance token rewards. (Decentralised Exchange, Live) - [Tensorplex Dojo](https://thegrid.id/profiles/tensorplex): Tensorplex Dojo implements human-AI collaboration infrastructure through crowdsourced dataset collection protocols, enabling quality training data generation for machine learning models. The system facilitates real-time human feedback integration while rewarding contributors for AI development participation. (Developer Tooling, Open Beta) - [Tensorplex Validator](https://thegrid.id/profiles/tensorplex): Tensorplex Validator implements proof-of-stake validation through distributed node operations, securing subnet networks and AI application infrastructure. The system validates subnet outputs for accuracy while distributing staking rewards to delegators and maintaining network consensus. (Validator, Live) ## Assets - [Tensorplex Staked TAO (stTAO)](https://thegrid.id/profiles/tensorplex): stTAO is a liquid staking token representing staked TAO on Bittensor, issued by Tensorplex Labs. It is used to earn staking rewards from validator pools while maintaining liquidity for DeFi activities across multiple blockchains. The token allows users to stake TAO directly on Ethereum using EVM-compatible wallets instead of requiring Bittensor-compatible wallets, lowering the technical barrier for participants familiar with Ethereum.
