Walrus changes the equation.
Unlike traditional storage layers that penalize data retrieval, Walrus offers no download fees, while delivering performance on par with centralized cloud providers. It’s not just about cost savings—it’s about unlocking scale. By integrating Walrus, Gata removes a core bottleneck that has stalled progress in decentralized AI, allowing anyone to help generate synthetic datasets for training large AI models, without worrying about unpredictable fees.
“The promise of decentralized AI has been hampered by a fundamental economic challenge: data access is prohibitively expensive,” said Rebecca Simmonds, Managing Executive of the Walrus Foundation. “With Walrus, Gata can now build on a data layer that provides both decentralization and affordability.”
From Cost Savings to Compute Transparency
But the partnership isn’t just a cost-saver. It’s a strategic infrastructure play.
