The post-quantum chain where mining does useful work

Animica mainnet is live: Dilithium3 + SPHINCS+ signatures, smart contracts in deterministic Python, and PoIES consensus that rewards useful compute — including attested, verifiable quantum randomness — instead of wasted hashes.

Start Mining Read the Docs
pip install animica

The complete client — mine, run a node, use the wallet, deploy Python contracts, run animica up (the unified PoW + useful-work + GPU train/serve + Studio miner), and use the Studio SDK. The native CPU miner is included by default. Want the kitchen sink? pip install "animica[all]" adds every optional extra: Qt wallet QR codes, the full distributed Studio client (cloudpickle + omni-sdk for on-chain ANM escrow), and all pinned server/operator deps.

An OpenAI-compatible API for your SaaS & AI agents.

Businesses and agent builders ship on Animica AI — a drop-in, OpenAI-compatible API. Point the official OpenAI SDK at our base URL, swap in an Animica key, and your existing chat, streaming, tool-calling, and embeddings code runs unchanged — exactly what autonomous agents need. Go to production with per-key spend caps, usage analytics, and signed webhooks. Start free with monthly free tokens; pay with card, PayPal, or crypto. Manage it all at console.animica.org.

Open the console — get an API key Pricing API reference
base_url="https://api.animica.org/v1"

Two lines change: base_url → https://api.animica.org/v1 and api_key → your Animica key — no rewrites. Or use the native SDKs: npm i @animica/sdk and pip install animica-ai. Businesses sign up, mint keys, and watch usage and billing at console.animica.org.

  • anm-code-7bCode generation
  • anm-pro-70bFrontier reasoning
  • anm-bittensor-routerRoutes to Bittensor subnets
  • anm-embedEmbeddings

Real streaming

Token-by-token SSE on /chat/completions with stream=true — first tokens in milliseconds, not after the full response lands. Wire it straight into your existing chat UI.

Spend controls

Per-key rate limits and monthly spend caps, org-level budgets with auto-recharge, and idempotency keys so retries never double-bill. Fund it with ANM or crypto credits — no surprise overages.

Usage analytics

Break usage down per key, per model, and per day in the console, or export the raw numbers to CSV for finance and customer billing.

Signed webhooks

HMAC-signed webhooks for usage, billing, and budget events — verify the signature and react inside your own backend.

Serverless compute, paid in ANM

Write a Python function, add a decorator, and run it on Animica's decentralized GPU & CPU fleet — Modal-style developer experience, settled on-chain. The same rigs that mine and train ANM now run your functions.

Animica Studio — agentic code studio

A local AI coding IDE powered by Animica: chat with agents, browse and edit your project, generate complete features, and run commands with approval — an agentic workflow that builds software with you, all on your machine.

Linux (.deb) Windows (.exe) macOS (.zip) Source (pip)

Self-contained desktop builds that bundle Python + Qt. Windows: run the installer. macOS: unzip, then right-click → Open (unsigned). Or run from source: pip install -r requirements.txt & python main.py.

Why Animica

Core Capabilities

Post-Quantum Security

Dilithium3 and SPHINCS+ signatures protect every account and transaction against both classical and future quantum attackers.

Useful-Work Consensus

PoIES points mining power at useful compute — the pool supports XMR dual-mining and Bittensor GPU workloads on the same rig.

Deterministic Python VM

Write contracts in Python with deterministic execution and auditable state transitions, then deploy them with the animica CLI.

Live Infrastructure

Mainnet runs today with a public explorer, web and desktop wallets, JSON-RPC at rpc.animica.org, and a working mining pool.

Get Started

Choose Your Path

Mine ANM

Point a miner at the pool and earn ANM — with optional XMR dual-mining and Bittensor GPU compute on the same hardware.
