Introducing Oh
Oh is a platform that aims to revolutionize how creators produce, interact, and profit in the Web3 era by integrating decentralization, user empowerment, and advanced AI technology.
Nic Young, the co-founder and CEO of Oh, highlighted that the platform seeks to transform the creator economy by combining AI’s personalization strengths with the decentralized and censorship-resistant features of Web3. This unique combination offers a disruptive model for creators and their audiences.
Young stated:
“The intersection of AI and Web3 represents a once-in-a-generation opportunity to disrupt the creator economy. By combining AI’s ability to generate and personalize content with the power to create communities with agentic capabilities, built on the decentralization and censorship resistance of Web3, traditional systems simply can’t compete.”
Ohchats and superModels
At the heart of Oh’s ecosystem is OhChat, an AI-powered platform with a user base of nearly 100,000 across 174 countries. Users can interact with AI-generated characters, including unique digital personalities and virtual replicas of real-world figures.
Celebrities like Carmen Electra and Kaili Thorne are already using the platform to engage with millions of followers through AI-enhanced digital twins. Oh plans to introduce “superModels” – autonomous, next-generation AI digital creators.
These AI agents offer dynamic capabilities such as building a social media presence, remembering user interactions, and developing evolving personalities. SuperModel owners can monetize these digital agents, launch tokens linked to their revenue, and benefit from permissionless buybacks, allowing creators and their communities to share in the financial growth of the projects.
Token launch
Oh’s roadmap includes introducing token capabilities in the first quarter of the year to support its ecosystem. These tokens will be built on the Solana blockchain, offering staking incentives and enabling tokenized ownership of superModels. Users can also tokenize their creations, enabling collaborative monetization and shared ownership opportunities.
