Edge AI Oracle’s transparent, data-driven resolutions make it a powerful tool for prediction markets, ensuring each outcome is backed by rigorous, unbiased data.

Edge AI Oracle Workflow

  1. Node Operators propose and reach consensus around an AI council. An AI council uses distinct AI Oracle Agents to determine market outcomes together, while bypassing single-model dependency and bias. Edge AI Oracle Agents utilize top models like OpenAI, Anthropic, Meta, and Mistral for inference.
  2. Consensus - An AI council achieves 95% confidence to finalize elections. If confidence score requirements are not met, Edge continuously reruns stage 1.
  3. Publish Market Resolution to the Edge ElectionOracle Contracts. Results are published on the Edge ElectionOracle contract on Ethereum.
  4. Multi-Chain Markets, powered by LayerZero. LayerZero is used to read values from Ethereum and publish to Edge ElectionOracle contracts on Base & Arbitrum.
  5. Market Resolution. Wintermute’s OutcomeMarket reads the results from the ElectionOracle contract, resolving markets based on the confirmed winners across all chains.

Architecture: Decentralized AI Oracle Council and Multi-Agent Orchestration

The architecture of Edge AI Oracle is built to tackle three fundamental challenges of truth-seeking oracles:

  • Prompt Optimization
  • Single Model Bias
  • Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG).

Hosted on the Edge Oracle Network and powered by LangChain and LangGraph, the system leverages advanced multi-agent orchestration to enhance query accuracy and reliability.

Edge AI Multi-Agent Workflow, powered by Langchain

Research Agent: The workflow begins with the research_analyst, which reviews the query, identifying key data points and required sources. The researcher agent is based off the excellent GPTResearcher implementation.

Web Scraper Agent: The query is then passed to the web_scraper, which retrieves data from external sources and databases and prioritizes reputable, verified information.

Edge AI allows to explicitly specify data authorities as part of the market creation.

Document Relevance Analyst: The document_bias_analyst reviews the gathered data, applying filters and checking for bias, ensuring the data pool remains neutral and credible.

Document selection criteria is critical for RAG, and can effect result precision significantly.

Report Writer Agent: The report_writer synthesizes findings into a cohesive report, presenting an initial answer based on the research and analysis conducted.

Summarizer Agent: The summarizer condenses the report, distilling the key insights and findings into a concise form suitable for final processing.

Classifier Agent: Finally, the classifier evaluates the summarized output, categorizing and validating it against preset criteria before reaching the END of the workflow.

Each stage is executed sequentially, ensuring that data flows systematically from one agent to the next, enhancing transparency and accuracy in query resolution.

LangChain and LangGraph: Multi-Agent Orchestration Framework

LangChain and LangGraph form the core of Edge AI Oracle’s multi-agent system, making it possible to orchestrate complex, stateful interactions and optimize query resolution. With LangChain’s adaptable components—from prompt templates to retrieval tools and output parsers—each Oracle agent can handle tasks independently while seamlessly integrating with other agents in the workflow. LangGraph then builds on this structure by enabling directed, cyclical workflows across agents, ensuring a well-coordinated, step-by-step process that is critical to achieving high accuracy and transparency in data resolution.

  • LangChain Components: LangChain supplies the essential building blocks to retrieve, organize, and structure data within each agent, allowing us to maintain high-quality, bias-filtered responses. Importantly, LangChain serves as a flexible gateway to multiple frontier models, providing a unified API and interface that simplifies extending support to various LLMs. This capability empowers Edge AI Oracle to leverage a diverse set of LLMs, ensuring balanced perspectives within the Oracle Council while minimizing individual model biases.
  • LangGraph Workflow: LangGraph’s graph-based structure and stateful interactions enable the precise multi-agent orchestration that powers the Decentralized AI Oracle Council. A directed, cyclical workflow allows each agent to build on the work of others, coordinating Oracle agents from initial research to final consensus in a structured flow:
    • Workflow Breakdown:
      • The workflow begins with the research_analyst node, where initial data gathering and query parsing occur.
      • The agent moves to the web_scraper, gathering relevant, reputable data from external sources.
      • A document_bias_analyst then filters out any potential biases within the retrieved data.
      • This leads to the report_writer, who synthesizes findings into a coherent report.
      • Finally, a summarizer distills the report into concise conclusions, which the classifier evaluates before reaching the workflow’s END.

Through LangGraph’s edge-based orchestration, each task is smoothly handed off to the next, ensuring a cohesive and logical resolution process.
