Deploy

After your model has been successfully committed to the network, you have the opportunity to deploy it to make it public to internet, or private to nimble network only. This allows functionality similar to well-known model providers, but from different domains. In this section, we'll guide you through the deployment process using the nimble-cli tool.

Listing Deployable Models

Not all models may be ready for deployment. To check which models can be deployed:

nimble-cli list models

This command will display a list of models that are ready and eligible for deployment.

Deploying Your Model

Select a model that is ready for deployment and provide your signature to authorize the deployment:

nimble-cli deploy 
--id
--auto_scaling
--public
--example_input
--example_output
--price_tag
--signature

Accessing Your Model

After deploying your model, it will take a few minutes to activate. Once activated, you will receive a dedicated API endpoint. This API allows users to interact with your model similar to how they would with other online AI services.

Earning Tokens

An exciting aspect of deploying your model is the potential to earn tokens. Each time someone accesses your model via the API, you will receive tokens as a form of compensation for providing computational resources and model access.
