In the latest community update on March 16, 2025, Santeri shared exciting advancements in robotics, key improvements to apps, fundraising momentum, and strategic initiatives for decentralizing the network.
Auki is actively expanding its robotics integration, especially within China, thanks to the tireless efforts of our robotics team led by Phil. Recent discussions with Agibot, known for innovative humanoid and service robots, highlight potential collaborations. Agibot's latest small humanoid robot, capable of remarkable feats like riding a bicycle, illustrates the dynamic potential of this partnership. Phil also achieved a significant milestone by integrating PadBot onto the Cactus retail app, enabling promotional activities and product navigation.
Phil remarked, "We're driving around doing promotion, and if interrupted, the robot guides you to any product you want. It's a big upsell on what we can provide."
Auki's apps saw notable improvements, particularly in the Domain Management Tool (DMT) and Cactus:
Auki continues robust fundraising activities, attracting considerable interest from VCs who appreciate deep technical discussions beyond token liquidity matters. The unique dual-structure fundraising, offering token-based infrastructure investments and equity-based app investments (Cactus), has generated substantial positive feedback.
On the token side, Auki is exploring delegated staking to lower barriers for node setup. Santeri emphasized, "Tokens must perform real utility tasks. We won't reward just holding and staking; tokens need to do actual jobs."
Auki reported recent challenges associated with the multi-sig processes, notably due to the ByBit and Safe Global hack, prompting comprehensive security enhancements.
Preparations continue for launching the third type of Auki node—the Reconstruction Node. Essential for decentralizing visual positioning, this node converts RGB video data into dense point clouds, enabling environmental understanding for robots.
Santeri highlighted Terri’s engagement at an Animoca Brands event focused on DePIN and robotics, underscoring strategic alignment with innovative data crowdsourcing initiatives like FrodoBots.
The launch of Intercognitive is nearing completion, pending finalization of governance structures and treasury management. Discussions continue on adopting DAOs, potentially leveraging agentic AI to manage governance efficiently and fairly.
Santeri noted, "I'm exploring companies deploying agentic AI for DAO governance, as this could mitigate human emotional bias and enhance DAO efficacy."
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.
