# AI Model Hosting

Pictor’s core AI service for deploying trained AI models on global, decentralized GPU infrastructure.

AI Model Hosting is the process of making a trained AI model accessible to other users or applications, typically through an API. Once hosted, the model can receive input, process it, and return predictions in real time. This enables use cases like chatbots, image generation, object detection, and more.

Pictor provides the compute layer needed to host these models, using a decentralized GPU network contributed by global Worker nodes. Instead of buying and maintaining your own on-prem GPU servers, you can deploy your model on Pictor Network and run it at scale with minimal setup.

Just bring your trained and ready model. Pictor Network supplies the compute infrastructure.
