AltLayer provides decentralized rollups designed to scale AI and DeFi applications, while The Graph offers an indexing protocol for querying blockchain data. They differ in focus: AltLayer targets scalability through rollups, whereas The Graph specializes in data organization and retrieval. AltLayer suits developers building scalable AI or DeFi dApps; The Graph is ideal for those needing efficient access to on-chain data.

AltLayer is a decentralized protocol that enables the launch of native and restaked rollups using both optimistic and zero-knowledge stacks. It provides rollups-as-a-service infrastructure, supporting scalable and interoperable Layer 2 solutions for Ethereum and other ecosystems.
The Graph organizes blockchain data into open APIs called subgraphs, making it searchable and accessible via GraphQL for dApp developers. Its native token GRT coordinates a decentralized network of Indexers, Curators, and Delegators who secure and process queries.
