GaiAI is a decentralized artificial intelligence (DeAI) project that operates on the BNB Chain. The project is designed as both a foundational "DeAI Knowledge Service Layer" and a user-facing "Creative AI and Creative Asset DAO" (Decentralized Autonomous Organization). Its primary objective is to combine generative AI with blockchain technology to establish a decentralized creative economy where AI-generated visual content is registered as a verifiable on-chain asset with inherent attribution and value. The native utility and governance token of the ecosystem is GAIX. ^{[1] [2]}​

Overview

GaiAI positions itself as a solution to several challenges within the AI industry, targeting both consumers of AI models and developers who use AI data. For users, the project aims to simplify the complex and rapidly changing AI landscape by providing a single, unified interface to access and interact with multiple AI models. It also introduces a model to compensate users for their interactions and feedback, which generate valuable data. For AI developers and data users, GaiAI addresses the scarcity of high-quality, human-judged data comparing the performance of different AI models, a resource largely controlled by a few centralized corporations. ^[1]

The project's core vision is to build a decentralized creative economy where creators can own, verify, and monetize their work freely. A key statement from the project's documentation outlines this goal: "to build a global on-chain creative asset network, where everyone can participate, showcase creativity through AI, and gain rewards." ^[3] This is facilitated through a concept GaiAI calls "Creative Tokenization," which aims to convert creative works and user interactions into tokenized, value-accruing assets on the blockchain. The project's philosophy is that actions such as generating an image, downloading it, or creating a derivative work are all valuable creative acts that should generate yield for the original creators and contributors. ^[4]

The platform is designed to function as an "AI agent-driven system" that leverages visual content and economic incentives to build its ecosystem. It treats digital images not merely as files but as collaborative, on-chain financial assets. As stated in its documentation, "In GaiAI, every image is an asset, every call is a collaboration, and every share generates yield." This approach is intended to empower users of all skill levels to become participants and beneficiaries in an on-chain visual economy. ^[4]

History and Development

GaiAI's development and launch activities gained public notice in late 2025. The project initiated a testnet phase that involved a reported 600,000 creators, designed to build the foundation of its on-chain creative economy. ^[1] The testnet launch achieved significant early traction, surpassing 100,000 users within its first 48 hours. ^{[2] [3]}

Following the testnet, GaiAI proceeded with its mainnet launch on the BNB Chain in early November 2025, which included the deployment of the GAIX token and its associated smart contracts. An airdrop verification feature was activated concurrently with the mainnet launch. ^[1] By mid-December 2025, the platform had registered over one million creative assets on-chain, and its community was reportedly generating over 20,000 creative discussions daily. ^[3]

The GAIX token experienced notable price volatility after its market debut. It recorded an all-time low price of approximately $0.051 on December 1, 2025. A week later, on December 7, 2025, the token reached its all-time high price of approximately $0.23. ^{[2] [3]}

Around December 11, 2025, GaiAI announced it had raised a total of $10 million in funding across two separate rounds. This funding was designated for product development, building out the platform's incentive mechanisms, and expanding its global creator ecosystem. ^{[2] [3]}

The project's roadmap for late 2025 included the official start of its on-chain Creator Incentive Program. For the first quarter of 2026, GaiAI plans to release multi-platform plugins for web, mobile, and browser integration, along with the formal launch of a Creator Alliance program to build partnerships. ^[1]

Technology and Architecture

GaiAI's architecture is built on several interconnected technological pillars that combine AI services with blockchain infrastructure. The system is designed to serve as an abstraction layer that simplifies AI interaction while creating a verifiable record of creative output. ^[1]

Knowledge Service Layer

At its core, GaiAI functions as a "DeAI Knowledge Service Layer." This is an abstraction layer positioned between the end-user and multiple underlying AI models from various platforms. This layer is designed to provide users with a single, simplified interface, removing the need for them to navigate the complexities of different AI services individually. Its primary function is to streamline access and interaction with a diverse range of AI capabilities. ^[1]

Creative AI Agent

Built upon the service layer is the "Creative AI Agent," a personalized AI assistant for creators. This agent supports the entire creative lifecycle, from generating initial ideas to optimizing and finalizing creative works. It includes features for users to upload their own models, share prompts, and create derivative works by reusing existing on-chain assets. This component serves as the main user-facing tool for content creation within the GaiAI ecosystem. ^[3]

Agentic Workflow and Multi-shot Learning

The platform employs an "agentic workflow," an agent-based system that manages and executes user prompts across different AI services. This streamlines the process of harnessing the capabilities of various AI platforms. This is complemented by a "multi-shot learning" process, which facilitates an iterative creative workflow. A user can begin with a general prompt and progressively refine the output through a series of subsequent instructions. The context is carried over with each user interaction, allowing for more complex and nuanced creations. ^[1]

Human-Judge Model Comparison Data

A key output of user interaction on the GaiAI platform is "human-judge model comparison data." Every time a user makes a choice—such as selecting one AI-generated image over another or refining a prompt—the platform captures this preference. This process generates a structured and valuable dataset that can be used to evaluate, compare, and fine-tune the performance of different AI models. The platform incentivizes this data generation by offering financial compensation to users for their engagement. ^[1]

Creative Asset Graph

To ensure attribution and create a verifiable history, GaiAI utilizes a "Creative Asset Graph." This is an on-chain system that records the complete lineage of a creative work. It tracks every step of an asset's life, from the initial prompt and the AI model used to the final generated output, as well as subsequent shares and downloads. This creates a transparent, immutable history of ownership and attribution for each asset registered on the platform, transforming digital creations into verifiable on-chain assets. ^[3]

Ecosystem and Economic Model

The GaiAI ecosystem is designed around a self-sustaining on-chain visual economy, incentivizing user participation through a model the project calls "Creative Tokenization." This concept treats all creative actions as value-generating events. ^[4]

Economic Incentive System

The platform incorporates several mechanisms to reward users and creators, primarily through its native GAIX token. These incentives are designed to foster a cycle of creation, sharing, and monetization.

• Create-to-Mine: Users earn rewards for generating new creative works on the platform. This mechanism directly incentivizes the production of new on-chain assets.
• Download-to-Earn: Creators receive a share of revenue when other users download or reuse their registered on-chain assets.
• Licensing and Subscription: The system enables creators to license their prompts and AI models or offer them through subscription models, creating pathways for sustainable income. This economic model is further supported by the principle that "every share generates yield," implying a built-in revenue-sharing mechanism where original creators and contributors earn rewards as their assets are used or derived from across the network. ^{[4] [3]}

Value-Driven Actions

Within the ecosystem, certain actions are defined as "creative acts of value" that contribute to the on-chain economy. These actions are tracked and often rewarded.

• Generation: The initial act of creating an image from a prompt.
• Download: The acquisition of an image by another user.
• Optimization: The process of enhancing or refining an existing image.
• Derivation: The creation of a new work based on a pre-existing on-chain asset. By tokenizing these interactions, GaiAI aims to build a comprehensive value chain for digital visual content. ^[4]

GAIX Token

The GAIX token is the native utility and governance cryptocurrency of the GaiAI ecosystem, operating as a BEP-20 token on the BNB Chain. ^[2]

Tokenomics

The tokenomics of GAIX are structured with a fixed maximum supply.

• Token Ticker: GAIX

As of mid-December 2025, GaiAI had a market capitalization of approximately $33 million and a fully diluted valuation (FDV) of over $200 million. ^{[3] [2]}

Utility

The GAIX token is integral to the platform's "Token Consumption Model." Its primary utilities include:

• Payments: Used to pay for AI image generation and other creative services on the platform.
• Governance: Grants holders the right to participate in the governance of the Creative Asset DAO, influencing the platform's future development.
• Incentives: Distributed as rewards to creators and users for participation through mechanisms like Create-to-Mine.
• Staking: Provides an opportunity for users to stake tokens to earn a share of platform revenue. ^[4]
