App Deployment and Storage

Calling AI models? You do not need a wallet or any blockchain setup. Start at For Developers and the API Reference. The rest of this page covers the Swan 1.0 deployment tooling (Swan SDK, Lagrange/LDL, IPFS storage) and is kept for reference.

Getting Started with Swan Chain (L2)

For the on-chain tooling below you will need to:

• Set up your wallet

• Bridge tokens from Ethereum to Swan Mainnet

What You Can Do with Swan Chain

AI Inference with Swan Inference API

• Access frontier and open-source models (LLM, multimodal, image, audio, embedding) via an OpenAI-compatible API — see the live catalog

• Drop-in replacement — use any existing OpenAI SDK by changing the base URL to https://api.swanchain.io/v1

• Supports streaming, embeddings, image generation, and audio transcription

Deploying with Swan SDK

• The Swan SDK simplifies interactions with the Swan Chain Network Resource.

• Learn to create and manage computational tasks, retrieve hardware information, process payments, and monitor task statuses.

Store and Retrieve Files with Swan Storage

• Utilize Multi-Chain Storage (MCS), Swan Chain's decentralized storage solution.

• Learn to install and configure the MCS SDK, manage storage buckets, and handle file operations.

Creating Deployment Files with LDL

• The basics of LDL and its relationship to YAML

• How to create deploy.yaml files for your Swan Chain projects

• Key components of an LDL file: version, services, profiles, and deployment
