[Morpheus](https://mor.org/) is a decentralized AI inference network where open-source model providers compete on a peer-to-peer marketplace. The network routes requests across independent compute providers instead of relying on a single centralized API, offering models like DeepSeek, Llama, Qwen, and others, with the available model list updating dynamically as providers join and leave the network.

In partnership with GenLayer, Morpheus provides decentralized LLM inference for Intelligent Contract validators through an OpenAI-compatible API. GenLayer Studio fetches available models from the Morpheus marketplace in real time, so validators always see the latest options. Developers can obtain a [Morpheus API key](https://mor.org/) to get started.

This partnership brings decentralized, censorship-resistant AI inference to the GenLayer ecosystem, ensuring that Intelligent Contracts are not dependent on any single provider.
