Join WORLD3 RouterLink Alpha Program
Explore the next frontier of AI infra with WORLD3.
Build or run the future of AI infra with RouterLink — incentives, tooling, and real-world access await.
Overview
This page introduces WORLD3’s RouterLink Alpha Program — a selective rollout for infrastructure operators and AI developers. Participants either operate core routing nodes or build on top of our unified AI API layer.
Alpha is a controlled-scale rollout with selected operators and builders.
Alpha Partners run RouterLink Nodes (router + validator), helping relay traffic and generate trust receipts (PoTU) and latency proofs (PoLP).
Developers build apps, SDKs, agents, tooling, and integrations using the RouterLink network.
Why Join the Alpha Program?
The Alpha Program is designed for two tracks: Operators and Builders. Both gain early access to the RouterLink infrastructure layer — with rewards, tooling, and co-governance privileges.
Run a RouterLink Node and help power the global AI routing mesh. Get priority traffic, incentives in $WAI, and early monetization rights.
Build AI-native apps and agents using our unified API layer. Receive grants, infra support, and exposure across the WORLD3 ecosystem.
How RouterLink works?
RouterLink turns complex AI model routing into one unified gateway — with optimized decisions, verifiable receipts, and planned settlement.
