# Introduction

> Welcome to the Dria Network — Run AI models or use decentralized inference from the CLI

![Dria Network Hero](https://mintcdn.com/edge-ai/qaDjmQEREuzarSwM/images/hero.png?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=qaDjmQEREuzarSwM\&q=85\&s=bf167ee51653fdf17ab3a15751a70eb1)

## What is Dria?

Dria is a decentralized Edge AI network — a distributed, crowdsourced hyperscaler that delivers fast, affordable AI inference powered by everyday people.

Anyone can contribute by **running a node** to serve AI models and earn rewards, or **use the network** to run inference across a global fleet of compute nodes from the command line.

Dria powers scalable, high-performance inference across diverse CPU and GPU hardware. No Ollama, no external dependencies — just a single binary that runs models natively using llama.cpp.

## Two Ways to Participate

> **[Run a Node](/how-to-run)**
>
> Install `dria-node`, pick a model, and start earning rewards by serving inference to the network.

> **[Use the Network](/cli)**
>
> Install the Dria CLI to generate text, process batches, hold conversations, and more — all powered by the decentralized network.

## Getting Started

> **[Select Models](/selecting-models)**
