Neos is a decentralized platform that incentivizes collaboration among scientists, researchers, and artificial intelligence (AI) agents to solve global challenges in science, medicine, and mathematics. By introducing Research Interest Points (RIPs), Neos decentralizes funding and validation processes, enabling a trustless, incentive-driven system for innovation. The platform employs a unique Proof of Research (PoR) consensus mechanism, ensuring contributions are validated, non-duplicative, and aligned with research objectives.
