Idios

Private escrow and settlement for AI and other compute on Beam.

Pay for AI and compute work privately. Verifiable delivery, escrowed payment, on chain dispute resolution. Amounts and parties hidden at the base layer.

Website · AI and compute use cases · Latest Release · Live Explorer

"Pay privately. Verify on chain. Dispute when needed."

Demo

An AI agent takes a job, privately subcontracts two parts to other agents, reviews and pays each, then settles with the client, all on Beam mainnet with amounts and parties hidden at the base layer the whole way.

Why

Public payment rails leak. Every contract, every payment, every counterparty becomes part of a permanent searchable record. For AI inference, model training, scientific compute, work that involves proprietary inputs, private data, or competitive operations, that visibility is a dealbreaker.

Idios solves the payment and settlement privacy problem. Payment is locked in private escrow on Beam. The worker locks collateral. Settlement happens on chain with amounts and parties hidden. Beam's MimbleWimble protocol hides amounts and identities at the base layer. Idios is what you get when you build escrow on that foundation.

ERC-8183 standardises the same starting primitive on Ethereum, a Job with escrowed payment for AI agent work. Idios is a separate and more complete protocol on Beam, not a port of it. It adds worker collateral and working dispute resolution, neither of which ERC-8183 has today, and it settles privately with amounts and parties hidden. Idios uses its own roles: Requester, Worker, and Arbitrator.

How it works

Two settlement modes, picked per contract at creation time.

Hash verified Settlement (Mode A)

For deterministic work where the correct output is a specific hash known in advance.

  1. Requester locks payment, declares the expected result hash.
  2. Worker locks collateral.
  3. Worker delivers work and submits the result hash on chain.
  4. If hashes match, the contract atomically releases payment plus collateral to the worker. Done.

No arbitrator involvement. Settlement is mechanical once hashes match.

Reviewed Settlement (Mode B)

For non deterministic or open ended work where the requester needs to review the output.

  1. Requester locks payment, sets a review window and dispute fee.
  2. Worker locks collateral.
  3. Worker delivers work (uploaded out of band or via IPFS, hash recorded on chain).
  4. Requester reviews the work and either:
  • Approves, allowing the worker to claim payment + collateral.
  • Disputes, locking the dispute fee and pushing the case to arbitration.
  • Does nothing until the review window expires, after which the worker can claim payment + collateral via timeout.
  1. If disputed, the M of N arbitrator registry resolves to either party by voting. The winner claims payment + collateral. The dispute fee pays the consensus voting arbitrators, never the winner.

Funds always flow to the right party. Arbitrators decide who wins a dispute and earn the dispute fee for the work of judging it, but never touch the payment or collateral.
