Our platform is a multi-asset ecosystem designed to bridge the gap between creative expression and AI development. We empower "Asset Owners"—poets, musicians, and artists—by giving them a secure space to upload their work while maintaining full control over its commercialization. Unlike traditional platforms, we enable artists to monetize their work specifically as high-quality training and testing data for Large Language Models (LLMs). By establishing a "user-allowance" criteria, we ensure that AI development only proceeds with the creator's explicit consent. The ecosystem utilizes a frictionless nanopayment model to ensure fair and immediate compensation. When an "Asset Seeker" (such as a developer or curator) utilizes the database—for instance, to generate a custom playlist—the underlying agent retrieves the content and triggers two simultaneous transactions: a direct payment to the artist for their contribution and a service fee to the platform. This model creates a sustainable, transparent cycle where human creativity fuels technological innovation. By prioritizing ethical data sourcing and granular micro-transactions, we provide a foundation for AI growth that respects, protects, and properly remunerates the original creators.

In this hybrid hackathon powered by Arc and Circle, developers will build the next generation of Agentic economic applications using Circle’s Nanopayments infrastructure with settlement on Arc in USDC. For the first time, high-frequency, usage-based transactions between users, APIs, and AI agents can operate without gas overhead eroding margin. Arc provides stablecoin-native settlement with predictable, dollar-denominated USDC fees and deterministic, sub-second finality — enabling real-time coordination and economically viable per-action pricing at scale. 📅 April 20 – 26, 2026 • Apr 20 – 25 (Online): Submit projects by Apr 25. • Apr 25 (On-site Build – SF, CA): Teams refine projects. • Apr 26 (On-site Demos & Awards – SF, CA): Live pitches & winners announced.
