Introduction

What is Teneo?

Teneo is a decentralized network that unlocks real-time data from social media platforms and websites while ensuring users – not corporations – benefit from its value. By running a Teneo Community Node, anyone can contribute to the network and earn rewards in return.

Today, some of the most valuable insights are locked behind expensive APIs and platform restrictions. Teneo changes that by allowing individuals to share and earn rewards for their unused social media bandwidth, creating a scalable, fair, and decentralized alternative to traditional data providers.

Teneo is built on the DePIN model, ensuring that access to public data is distributed and community-powered.

Why Decentralizing Data Access Matters

Data is one of the most valuable assets in the digital economy, yet it remains locked within centralized platforms and expensive APIs controlled by a few major corporations. This restricts access to those who can afford it while leaving individuals – who generate the data in the first place – without any share of its value. Teneo fixes this imbalance by decentralizing access and rewarding the people who power the network.
