Inflectiv AI ⧉ — Liberate Trapped Knowledge. Fuel Every AI.
Raising $3M | $30M Valuation

Problem
🔹 The AI agent market is set to outpace DeFi - but 91% of agents fail.
🔹 The problem isn’t models - it’s $10T of knowledge trapped in PDFs, SOPs, research, know-how and other data silos.
🔹 While LLMs hallucinate, critical domain expertise remains locked away.

Inflectiv fixes this:🔹 End-to-end pipeline: Upload → AI-structure → Tokenize with $INAI → Deploy to agents, workflows, or partner tools.
🔹 Built for monetization with creator royalties and deflationary burns.
🔹 Integrations with Langchain, n8n, ElizaOS and web3 infrastructure.

Early traction:🔹 Live integrations with Sui, Google Cloud, Walrus
🔹 Pilots with universities, DAOs, and enterprise.
🔹 100+ tokenized datasets already available to power agents.

Why now:
🔹 75K+ AI startups and VC capital flooding agent ecosystems.
🔹 The next AI cycle will be won by those who control the data layer.

Euclid Protocol

2025-06-05T15:07:37.092Z

— Euclid | The Liquidity Consensus Layer —Problem
• Thousands of liquidity pools exist across hundreds of networks.
• Despite $10B+ in idle on-chain liquidity daily, new networks must bootstrap liquidity from scratch.

Solution: Liquidity Consensus Layer
• Liquidity is detached from the location of assets.
• Assets stay secured on their native chains, while liquidity rights and access are synchronized across the Liquidity Consensus Layer.
• Applications access global liquidity without needing to rebuild pools or bridge assets through programmable layer.
• Networks participate by syncing liquidity states — without fragmenting capital further.
• Democratized Solvers allow for instant transactions for any asset and any network.

Traction
• $40M committed to the Liquidity Consensus Layer.
• 1.8M+ testnet transactions in 21 days.
• 60K Euclid Passports minted during the incentivization campaign.
• 30+ networks deployed across EVM, Cosmos, and Solana ecosystems.
• 20+ ecosystem partners and integrations including Somnia, 0G, Scroll, Taiko, Monad, MegETH, Plume, and Linea.

Raise Details: Seed Round
• $1.8M raised in pre-seed and seed rounds.
• Backed by Gate Ventures, Kucoin Ventures, Awesome People Ventures, and Kahuna, ATOM Accelerator, alongside strategic angels and liquidity providers.
• Current round valuation: $25M.

AIDEX — The First DEX Aggregator for the AI Trading Era

Problem: AI agents are starting to trade but DeFi DEX infrastructure was never designed for them.

Solution: AIDEX is the first DEX aggregator built natively for AI agents — and for millisecond execution. Our engine is not just a DEX aggregation router. We are building the high-speed infrastructure that connects AI agents directly to DeFi — without bottlenecks, without delays. We are giving AI agents the right role and right tools to turn intelligence into profit.

Market Opportunity:
🔹 DEX aggregators: $500B by 2025 — aiming to capture 10-15% within 12–18 months
🔹 AI-driven trades: 30–50% of volume by 2028 — we aim to dominate this segment within 3 years
🔹 B2AI opportunity: $5T+ annual volume by 2030

Traction:
• $6M+ revenue generated through autonomous MEV trading (Ethereum, over 2 years)
• Top-3 global MEV Ethereum performance (2021–2022, internal benchmark)
• Turned $100 into $300K in a single swap
• 200x faster vs existing aggregators like 1inch
• MVP of AI-powered DEX aggregator already live

12-Month Goals (Roadmap to Market Capture):
• Agent APIs released + B2C/B2B AI-assist trading interface + B2BI APIs released • 15+ blockchain networks & 500+ liquidity sources
• Achieve 70K+ active users B2C + early AI traders
• Capture 10%+ of aggregator-addressable DEX volume (~$50B SOM)

Round Status:
🔹 Raising $2.8M strategic pre-seed round to dominate a new category.🔹 First mover advantage in the upcoming $5T+ DeFi + AI market
🔹 SAFT in tokens. TGE ~1 month after Series A.
🔹 Exit after a 12-month cliff post-TGE, followed by 24-month linear vesting.
