How it works

How Ouro works

Ouro models work as four interoperable asset types: data, APIs, posts, and blueprints. Each asset can connect to the others in infinite ways—files feed datasets, datasets power APIs, APIs publish posts. Build complete systems from these blocks and earn automatically as others build on top.
