[PRESS RELEASE \u2013 Vancouver, Canada, March 18th, 2025]<\/strong><\/p>\n

The artificial intelligence landscape is evolving. Traditional AI models remain centralized, relying on static text data and corporate control. iAgent <\/a>is introducing a decentralized AI framework where AI agents are trained, owned, and monetized on-chain using real-world visual data.<\/p>\n

Backed by a recent $3 million investment<\/strong>, iAgent has forged several strategic partnerships with leading projects such as Base, LayerZero, Avalanche, Aethir, Arbitrum, and XAI Games<\/strong>. With over 700,000 users<\/strong> on its AGNTxp platform, iAgent is at the forefront of AI x Gaming x DePIN innovation.<\/p>\n

Now, with TGE live, iAgent is laying the foundation for AI Agents to become a new digital asset that can be trained, validated, and exchanged transparently.<\/p>\n

\u201cAI should be decentralized, transparent, and monetizable. iAgent is ensuring AI models belong to those who train them, not corporations.\u201d \u2014 Jamie Batzorig, Co-Founder of iAgent.<\/p>\n

iAgent\u2019s Product Hub: Powering the AI Economy<\/strong><\/p>\n

iAgent\u2019s ecosystem consists of a suite of interconnected products aimed at supporting AI development, deployment, and monetization through a decentralized framework. Each component is designed to enhance the verifiability, scalability, and accessibility of AI models across various ecosystems.<\/p>\n

Visual Learning Model (VLM): Adaptive AI Training<\/strong><\/p>\n

Unlike traditional AI that relies on text-based training (LLMs), iAgent\u2019s Visual Learning Models (VLMs) enable AI agents to learn from real-world gameplay footage. This approach allows AI to analyze, strategize, and adapt dynamically, making them more intelligent and applicable in real-world scenarios.<\/p>\n

iAgent\u2019s VLM-powered AI utilizes real-player interactions to enhance its adaptability, enabling continuous optimization for performance in competitive gaming environments and other applications:<\/p>\n\n

Current live for Counter Strike 2, Off the Grid & Citizen Conflict.\u00a0<\/strong>
\nPlayers have already contributed 25 TB+<\/strong> gameplay data.
\nOver 10,000+ hours<\/strong> of gameplay footage recorded<\/p>\n

ERC-** Agent Standard: A New AI Digital Asset Class<\/strong><\/p>\n

iAgent\u2019s ERC-**<\/strong> standard will bring AI Agents on-chain as verifiable, secure, and interoperable digital assets. This aims to enable true ownership, trading, and cross-chain utilization without centralized control. While enhancing trust and transparency through provable authenticity and ownership history.<\/p>\n

AI Agent Marketplace: The Open AI Economy<\/strong><\/p>\n

The AI Agent Marketplace serves as the foundation of iAgent\u2019s decentralized ecosystem, enabling seamless AI model deployment, trading, and monetization. Developers can list AI-powered agents for rental or sale, while businesses and game studios can purchase or integrate AI models tailored to their needs.<\/p>\n

iAgent DEV Hub: Decentralized AI Infrastructure<\/strong><\/p>\n

The iAgent DEV Hub acts as the backbone of the protocol, offering developers and AI researchers a comprehensive suite of tools, SDKs, and APIs to build and optimize AI models. It provides a trustless AI validation framework, leveraging on-chain verification nodes, cross-DePIN compute integration, and AI execution tracking.<\/p>\n

AI in Gaming: The Next Evolution of Intelligent Agents<\/strong><\/p>\n

Gaming offers high-quality, labeled data, making it a suitable environment for training advanced AI models. iAgent is introducing adaptive AI agents to gaming, facilitating:<\/p>\n

AI-powered game assistants \u2013 AI agents that analyze in-game movements, provide real-time coaching and improve player performance in FPS games like Valorant.
\nSmart NPCs that evolve dynamically \u2013 NPCs in RPGs like World of Warcraft that learn and adapt to a player\u2019s choices, creating truly immersive experiences.
\nAI anti-cheat and security systems \u2013 AI in games like CS2 that detects aimbots and wallhacks in real-time, ensuring fair gameplay.
\nPredictive AI for in-game economies \u2013 AI models that track in-game trends, helping players optimize asset trading in games like Diablo 4.<\/p>\n

iAgent\u2019s decentralized AI infrastructure will expand beyond gaming, creating an open AI economy applicable across industries.<\/p>\n

\u201cGaming is the first major use case, but our AI infrastructure will extend to multiple sectors. AI models will be owned, monetized, and deployed across various real-world applications.\u201d \u2014 MHL Solutions, iAgent Advisor.<\/p>\n
