Index is a discovery protocol, eliminating the need for intermediaries in discovering information such as knowledge, thoughts, intents, and like-minded people.
To achieve this, Index transforms discovery components into decentralized networks and makes them composable.

New abstractions started in web3 as different protocols, such as identity, trust, reputation, intent, and even intuition. These protocols are semantic entities specifically designed to facilitate navigation across vast information spaces. Index is a contextual environment for these abstractions to be discovered together.
To illustrate, here is an example of an agent message that’s possible using Index Network:
