Pricing
Each node sets its own per-token price; you pay what the matched node quotes. The protocol takes a flat 5% — no other fees. (Testnet $QAIS has no real value.)
Estimate a request
0.5 QAIS total
0.475 to the node (95%) · 0.025 protocol fee (5%)
Where the 5% goes
60% — operations
Retained by the protocol treasury for hosting, gas, grants, and incentives.
20% — stakers
Paid pro-rata to node operators who stake $QAIS and secure the network.
20% — burned 🔥
Permanently removed from the fixed 1B supply — the token is deflationary.
Batched = cheap
A credit session settles thousands of calls in one transaction, so per-call gas is effectively zero.
