Overview of the Fundraising
The Web3 creator platform Oh has successfully raised $4.5 million in a seed funding round, marking an important milestone for its growth and development. The round was oversubscribed, attracting investments from prominent crypto and AI-focused companies such as Tangent, Big Brain Holdings, Kosmos Ventures, Tagus Capital, and Bodhi Ventures. This announcement was shared with Cointelegraph, providing insights into the platform’s vision and potential.
Introduction to OhChat
OhChat, the main product of Oh, is a revolutionary tool that enables the creation of AI-driven "digital twins" for online creators. With over 100,000 users spread across 174 countries, OhChat has already established itself as a leader in its niche market. The platform’s success lies in its ability to merge AI’s content personalization capabilities with the decentralized and censorship-resistant features of Web3 technology.
Vision and Mission
Nic Young, Oh’s co-founder and CEO, articulated the platform’s vision during the announcement. He emphasized that Oh aims to disrupt the creator economy by combining AI’s content generation and personalization with the power of Web3’s decentralized systems:
"By integrating AI’s content creation capabilities with the agentic power of Web3, traditional systems simply can’t compete. This paradigm shift promises transformative opportunities for creators, consumers, and investors alike."
The funding round is expected to be deployed towards developing superModels, autonomous AI-based digital creators that will provide a new revenue stream for digital creators.
Interest in AI Agents
Recent heightened interest in AI agents has been driven by Luna, an AI agent on Virtuals Protocol. Luna executed an autonomous transaction on the blockchain without direct human input, showcasing the potential of AI-driven systems in real-world applications.
SuperModels: A New Revenue Stream
Oh’s superModels stand out from traditional chatbots by offering a new avenue for revenue generation. These AGI-powered digital creators can grow their social media presence, engage with followers, and create dynamic personalities based on interactions. Additionally, the integration of celebrity integrations is a key driver behind the platform’s success.
Nic Young highlighted the platform’s appeal:
"The key to their profitability lies in the integration of superModels with globally recognized creators and celebrities."
Oh has already collaborated with popular figures such as Carmen Electra, Rio Sage, and Kaili Thorne. These partnerships provide a vast fan base for monetizing AI agents.
Utility Token Launch
A significant portion of the $4.5 million funding will be utilized to launch Oh’s utility token, which is set to be deployed on the Solana blockchain alongside other on-chain assets. This token will offer staking incentives and fractional ownership options, enabling multiple users to benefit from the growth of AI agents.
Industry Outlook
Industry watchers predict substantial upside for Web3-related developments in 2025. Key players such as Alvin Kan, CEO of Bitget Wallet, have expressed optimism about the potential of AI cryptocurrencies. The platform is well-positioned to capitalize on this trend with its innovative approach to creator monetization.
