Subnet Session with Gareth Howes from Vidaio: SN 85

Gareth Howes has spent 25 years behind the scenes of broadcast and streaming – but now he’s building a subnet.

In this Subnet Session, we sit down with Gareth to explore Subnet 85 - Vidaio - Bittensor’s first and only video processing subnet. He breaks down how their AI-enhanced compression and upscaling tech could save platforms like Netflix and Amazon millions, without compromising quality.

We cover:

• Why emerging markets are a massive wedge for Vidaio

• How AI can reduce file sizes by up to 80%

• Why compression, not upscaling, will be their 90% revenue driver

• The roadmap to fiat billing and enterprise partnerships

• And what they plan to do with real-world revenue when it starts flowing

If you’re betting on real-world adoption of Bittensor infrastructure – Vidaio is one to watch.
