Olas collects $ 13.8 million to launch the decentralized App Store for AI agents

Olas announced Tuesday that he had lifted $ 13.8 million To launch Pearl, a decentralized market of decentralized artificial intelligence agent.

The round was led by 1kx with the participation of Tioga Capital, Sigil Fund, Zee Prime Capital and Spaceship Dao.

Olas, also Autolas Dao, launched a platform for autonomous AI agents in 2021 in the blockchain and crypto industry. AI agents are a type of software that can make tasks and make decisions with little or no human intervention. They can collect data, analyze it and use it to act independently depending on the predetermined objectives.

The vision of Olas by launching Pearl is to provide users with the possibility of “co -producing” the very AI agents they build and launch. Unlike traditional AI services, which are centralized in a single service, Olas uses Blockchain technology, which distributes transactions and treatment through decentralized nodes.

Decentralized agents are divided into several agent bodies, each executed by different operators. The company claims that because of the open source code and the consensual mechanism of blockchain technology ensures high transparency and robustness.

Olas also provides sovereign agents, who are light agents that anyone can execute locally or in the cloud. Depending on the company, they are simple and have a low operating cost for small -scale operations that do not need in -depth coordination.

“Pearl App Store App Store represents a significant front step in the democratization of access to AI agents,” said David Minarsch, member of the Olas project and managing director of Olas Core contributor Valory AG. “By giving all AI agents they can not only use, but also entirely possess and personalized, we turn the status quo on its head. At a time when AI’s progress may seem more and more intimidating, Olas gives unique control to AI to the user. »»

Pearl works as an office application that allows users to own and use their own Olas AI autonomous agents which allows them to control them on the blockchain for different use cases. This includes autonomous social media accounts or the negotiation of cryptocurrency.

Olas has revealed that its agents are currently carrying out more than 700,000 transactions per month and increased at a rate of 30% of months in months. His agents have propelled more than 3.5 million transactions on nine blockchains, with 2 million of these transactions taking place between the Olas agents themselves.

In addition to the announcement, Olas said he was launching a accelerator program Offer up to $ 1 million in grants. Developers can submit proposals for integration agent in Pearl and an adoption plan for users. The selected teams can receive scholarships up to $ 100,000 for adding their agents to the store, having their agent chose as the most appreciated, reaching certain milestones and other measures.
