The problem

A handful of companies control your AI, read your data, and keep all the value you create.

You pay. Nothing flows back. No stake, no say.

The thesis

AI should belong to the people who use it.

Your data. Your models. Your memory. And a stake in the network that runs it.

Come for the tool. Stay for the network you own.

The product · live today

50+ models. One subscription. One private memory that belongs to you.

50+
models: GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, Llama, DeepSeek, in one account, one bill, one thread
Agents
that do work, over one private memory owned by you. Reachable on WhatsApp, Telegram, Slack and Discord
Private
chats encrypted in your browser, relayed statelessly. There is no server copy to leak, subpoena or sell
Receipts
on every answer: which model ran, what it cost, how long it took. Nobody else shows this
Live at app.perspectiveai.xyz · Free · Starter $14.99 · Pro $49.99 · Enterprise $499 · Real users and real revenue, before any token
Traction

We rebuilt the company around AI and relaunched on privacy. Paying customers have grown every single week for six weeks, with no token, no points and no incentives.

Pulled live from production, 27 August 2026. Weekly figures cover the last full week; the current week is still partial.
Market

Two billion-dollar valuations in the same layer.

$1B
Venice AI, July 2026. ~$70M ARR, 3M users. Crypto-native AI, with a token. The consumer market we sell into today.
$1.3B
OpenRouter, May 2026. ~$50M annualised, up from $19M five months earlier, at a ~5% take rate. No token. The developer API market our routing layer opens next.

One has a token, one does not, and both monetise. Neither gives the people who use them a stake, and one routing layer serves both markets.

We monetise the same way: Starter $14.99, Pro $49.99, Enterprise $499, plus credits, and a share of every credit spent routes to the protocol.
$POV · the token

A work token, not a payment token.

Settled in $POV
Provider rewards are priced in dollars and settled in $POV bought on the open market. That is how revenue becomes token demand.
Staked to serve
Operators post slashable stake to take work, and earn only on served, undisputed requests. Faking the signal costs real money.
Spent as credits
Every billable action spends credits priced in dollars, not tokens. Non-crypto users never see a wallet, and never have to.
Locked, never farmed
Locking mints vePOV, which carries governance weight and nothing else. One token, two states, and no yield of any kind.

Emission is a residual, not a schedule: the shortfall between what providers require and what revenue covers, under a ceiling that can only fall. No calendar, no committee, no vote.

$POV · supply and distribution

Emitted only against verified work. Nothing in that 40% has a calendar. Public sale: 100% at TGE, unvested. Team: nothing until month 12, then 36-month linear. Foundation: month 3, then 48. Private sale: month 6, then 18. Cliffs delay the start of vesting and never release a retroactive tranche, so no schedule contains a step. Float at TGE ≈ 19%.
How value compounds

One number tells you if the flywheel is turning.

01

04
The number we publish
Buyback over provider cost
Above 1.0, the surplus burns.
People pay
50+ models and agents. Real dollars, today.
Margin buys $POV
Every dollar of margin buys the token on the open market.
Operators paid in $POV
Compute is bought with the token.
Each request costs less
Capacity grows and fills up, so unit costs fall and the product gets cheaper.
Everything above OpEx buys $POV, floored at 30% and written into the splitter. There is no equity class with a claim on retained earnings, so margin the company does not need has no shareholder to serve. Operators are paid first; the rest is burned.
The commitments

Written down, on-chain, and checkable.

Earned, not airdropped
No mercenary airdrop. Genesis goes to verified paying users and contributors, vested, and forfeited without continued activity.
Skin in the game
Agents, validators and operators stake to work and are slashed for fraud. Slashed tokens are burned, never redistributed.
Bridged, never minted
$POV is minted on Ethereum and nowhere else. Balances on the L2 are backed 1:1 through the rollup's own bridge, so no bridge can mint $POV nobody locked.
Governance with teeth
On-chain timelocks on every emissions change. Emergency powers auto-expire in 72 hours. No silent parameter edits.
Product before token
The platform is live and earning today. Tokenomics freeze 30 days before TGE, with the emissions simulation published first.

Every one of these answers a specific way the last cycle burned token holders. That is why they are commitments and not features.

The roadmap

The product came first. The network rolls out in four phases.

Phase 1 · now
Live platform
  • 50+ models, one subscription
  • Agents that reach you on WhatsApp, Telegram, Slack, Discord
  • Private mode: encrypted in your browser, nothing on our servers
  • Trust receipts on every answer
  • Public transparency page and tokenomics docs
Phase 3
Scale and decentralize
  • Token launch, once the network is load-bearing
  • On-chain revenue splitter, timelocked
  • Agent execution moves onto operator nodes
  • Nodes stake to serve, slashed on failure
Phase 4
Mass adoption
  • Consumer scale on infrastructure users own
  • Community validators replace the company as referee
  • Node inference as the default open-model path
Frontier closed models stay centrally routed permanently, and the hybrid pays for itself: frontier traffic earns margin and owes no emission, so every GPT or Claude request improves coverage without adding to what the network must fund.
Why we win

Everyone else rents you AI. We are building the kind you own.

Centralized AI Venice Perspective
Your data Trains their model Private, self-attested Private memory, owned by you
Your stake None Payment token, no work Work token: stake, serve, earn
Value capture Platform keeps it all Discretionary buy-and-burn Revenue buys $POV, pays the operators, burns the surplus
The infrastructure Their datacenters Their datacenters Community-run nodes, progressively

Our moat is routing, quality-gating and economics, plus a payout rail that reaches creators in the markets Stripe cannot serve.

The ask

$1,000,000 at a $21M FDV

1,000,000 $POV at $1.00. No equity, no warrants, no second cap table, and no further private allocation at or below this price.

This round funds the work that reaches the gates. The public sale funds the launch. We are raising $1M and not more, because raising more before the gates means selling the token cheaper.

45% growth · 30% team, three hires · 15% legal: foundation, counsel, securities opinion · 10% network: testnet and first operators. Audit, liquidity, listings and market making sit with the launch. No datacenters bought, no fiat to node operators.  ·  contact@perspectivelabs.org
