Developer Setup

Set up your app so users can connect rNet and spend their own AI credits inside your product.

Sign In as a Developer

Every rNet account can access developer tools. Once you sign in to the rNet website, open the Dashboard from the top navigation bar. The dashboard is where you register apps, view wallet details, and find integration resources.

Create your rNet account

Visit the rNet website and register with your email address. Verify your email to gain full dashboard access. If you already have a user account, you can use the same login.

Open the Developer Dashboard

Click Dashboard in the top navigation bar. You'll land on the main dashboard page where you can see your wallet balance, registered applications, and quick access to documentation.

Explore the Dashboard

The dashboard shows:

Wallet Balance: The rNet credit balance, shared across connected apps.
Applications: All registered apps with their Client IDs. Click + New to register a new app.
Resources: Quick links to documentation and API references.
