+
+## Quick Start
+
+```rust
+use aethelred::{AethelredClient, Wallet, pouw::SubmitJobRequest};
+
+#[tokio::main]
+async fn main() -> anyhow::Result<()> {
+    // Connect to testnet
+    let client = AethelredClient::connect("https://rpc.testnet.aethelred.io").await?;
+
+    // Load wallet
+    let wallet = Wallet::from_mnemonic("your twelve word mnemonic...")?;
+
+    // Submit an AI compute job
+    let job = client.pouw().submit_job(SubmitJobRequest {
+        model_hash: hex::decode("abc123...")?,
+        input_data: b"{\"prompt\":\"Hello AI\"}".to_vec(),
+        verification_type: "hybrid".into(),
+        priority: "standard".into(),
+        signer: wallet.clone(),
+    }).await?;
+
+    println!("Job submitted: {}", job.job_id);
+
+    // Wait for and verify the seal
+    let seal = client.seal().await_seal_by_job(&job.job_id).await?;
+    println!("Output hash: {}", hex::encode(&seal.output_hash));
+    println!("Agreement: {}/{}", seal.agreement_power, seal.total_power);
+
+    Ok(())
+}
+```
