Program Flow Overview

This section describes the complete lifecycle of an AI inference within the Orby AI Protocol — from model registration to zk-proof execution, verification, and reward distribution — all coordinated by Ethereum smart contracts.

This modular pipeline ensures:

• Fully verifiable execution logic (via zk-proofs)

• Transparent, slashing-secured task delegation

• Native support for RWA tokenization and revenue distribution

[Executor Node] — zk-Proof —> Verifier Contract (Ethereum)

[RWA Smart Contracts] → Tokenized Yield Flow (optional)

🔗 Components Covered:

1. Model Registration (One-Time): Upload and register zk-compatible models.

2. Inference Request (User Job): Users trigger tasks using registered models.

3. Execution Phase (Off-Chain): Executor runs circuit and generates zk-proof.

4. Verification Phase: Proof is validated on-chain.

5. Rewards & Settlement: Payment distribution via Ethereum smart contracts.

6. Optional Extensions: Private inference, batch jobs, DAO gating.

7. Key Takeaways: Summary of verifiability, automation, and RWA alignment.
