Control Center
Service
A service registered on the Sertone network. Consumer sends GraphQL queries through the Sertone Global Network — encrypted, paid automatically.
What is the Sertone control center? A single Docker container you run on your own machine — a laptop, a Raspberry Pi, a cloud server. It connects you to the Sertone Global Network. Through its built-in web console, you browse services, register your own, manage your wallet, and monitor your earnings. Installation takes minutes. It is completely free, forever.

Why GraphQL on Sertone?
Expose your GraphQL API to paying consumers. Sertone handles authentication, billing, and settlement — you focus on your schema. Consumers get the flexibility of GraphQL queries while you earn revenue per call.
GraphQL APIs are ideal for the marketplace model because consumers request exactly the data they need. Sertone preserves the full GraphQL experience: consumers write queries, send variables, and receive structured responses — all through the Sertone Global Network.
Real-world example: A SaaS company exposes their user directory as a GraphQL API. Enterprise clients query exactly the fields they need — no over-fetching, no under-fetching. Each query is billed at $0.002 and paid instantly in USDC.
