Happy New Year from everyone at Auki! We're starting strong with exciting updates, upcoming partnerships, and major developments scheduled for the first half of 2025.
In February, we're launching our first accelerator program in collaboration with a prominent investor (announcement coming soon). We’ve received impressive applications from startups, some so promising that we'll be providing significant grants regardless of external funding. Notable projects include:
All these startups already have revenue streams, providing immediate, tangible value to the Auki network.
We're deepening our partnership with Mentra Glass, planning a groundbreaking showcase at AWE, the world’s largest augmented reality conference, in June. Expect demonstrations that will impress both Web3 and traditional spatial computing industries. Stay tuned for details—we can't wait to share more!
This month, we're traveling to London for a critical hackathon focused on developing app-free, AI-assisted navigation, designed specifically for visually impaired users. If successful, this technology will set a new standard for accessibility in spatial AI.
Unlike many blockchain projects, Auki remains engineering-driven. With a team predominantly composed of highly skilled engineers, we focus relentlessly on innovation and shipping practical, state-of-the-art technology.
In fact, as of early January, we don’t have a single full-time marketing position—our growth is driven purely by the strength of our technology and community enthusiasm.
As always, we invite you to join our Discord to participate directly, receive real-time updates, and join our post-update Q&A sessions. Your involvement and feedback are invaluable as we move forward into an exciting year.
Let’s make 2025 unforgettable!
Auki is making the physical world accessible to AI by building the real world web: away for robots and digital devices like smart glasses and phones to browse, navigate, and search physical locations.
70% of the world economy is still tied to physical locations and labor, so making the physical world accessible to AI represents a 3X increase in the TAM of AI in general. Auki's goal is to become the decentralized nervous system of AI in the physical world, providing collaborative spatial reasoning for the next 100bn devices on Earth and beyond.
