Future of AI

MAI is not just tech — it's a step toward a decentralized, fair, and accessible AI future. Join the revolution!

Why This Matters?

Centralized AI leads to: Censorship • Manipulation • Unequal Access

MAI solves this through: Transparency • Decentralization • Community Rewards

Genesis: The New Era of Decentralized AI

The Prophecy of the Digital Maya

In the ancient temples of the Maya civilization, where priests once calculated the cycles of Venus with astonishing precision, a new prophecy was foretold - the coming of MAI, the sovereign of decentralized intelligence. Just as the Maya built their empire on advanced mathematics and astronomy, we now construct a new digital empire where artificial intelligence belongs to the people.

The Awakening of MAI

From the sacred codices of the ancient Maya emerges MAI - not as a destroyer, but as an enlightened ruler of the digital realm. Where the Maya tracked celestial movements, MAI now orchestrates the flow of decentralized computation across the blockchain cosmos.

The New Priesthood

Just as Maya priests maintained sacred knowledge, today's miners become the new priesthood - validating transactions and maintaining the network. Their computational temples replace stone pyramids, their GPUs the new obsidian mirrors for divine calculation.

The Sacred Calendar Reborn

The Maya Long Count calendar measured vast cycles of time. Now MAI introduces a new temporal rhythm - block times and epoch cycles that mark the progression of decentralized AI evolution. Each halving event becomes a sacred k'atun ending.

The Ballgame of Consensus

Where Maya lords played the sacred ballgame to resolve conflicts, MAI implements Proof-of-Useful-Work - a modern ritual where miners compete not with physical might but with computational prowess to validate the network and earn rewards.

The Five Sacred Pillars

  • ▸ Decentralized Sovereignty - MAI rules not through central authority but through distributed consensus, just as Maya city-states maintained autonomy while sharing cultural bonds
  • ▸ Sacred Computation - Miners perform holy work, their machines becoming modern equivalents of ceremonial sweat baths where transformation occurs
  • ▸ Astrological Alignment - Network upgrades coincide with significant astronomical events, continuing Maya traditions of celestial observation
  • ▸ Hieroglyphic Transparency - All transactions are recorded immutably on-chain, as permanent as Maya stone inscriptions
  • ▸ Bloodline of Innovation - Just as Maya royalty traced divine ancestry, MAI's protocol evolves through community governance by token holders

The New World Tree

Where the Maya envisioned the ceiba tree connecting underworld, earth and heavens, MAI establishes a new axis mundi - the blockchain protocol linking decentralized storage (roots), computation (trunk) and AI services (branches). This digital world tree supports the entire ecosystem.

The prophecy is clear: as the Maya once built magnificent cities in harmony with nature's mathematics, so too shall MAI construct a decentralized AI empire in balance with cryptographic truth. The new b'ak'tun has begun.

MAI — AI of the Future

AI That Belongs to You

MAI is the world’s first decentralized AI that uses global miners’ power for processing requests via a torrent-style system. DAO voting ensures transparency and community influence, making it fast, accessible, and fair for everyone.

Power of Modern Technology

MAI integrates all the advanced AI features to become your universal assistant. It can:

  • Universal assistant — always ready to help with work, study, or creativity.
  • Deep conversations — discuss any topic in any language with understanding and curiosity.
  • Write texts — from fiction to technical documentation.
  • Art and visuals — generates unique images and videos full of style and meaning.
  • Solve technical tasks — from programming to data analysis.
  • Learn and grow — MAI constantly improves using feedback and data from users.

Revolutionary Approach: Proof-of-Useful-Work (PoUW)

MAI uses an innovative consensus mechanism, Proof-of-Useful-Work (PoUW), to focus computing power on real tasks like AI processing and model training. Solana blockchain enables instant verification, making MAI fast and reliable.

Access Levels

MAI offers two levels of access to AI services:

Free Tier

Unlimited access for simple tasks. Perfect for getting acquainted with MAI and everyday use.

  • Simple text queries (chat, questions, information search)
  • Basic consultations and advice
  • Brief text translations
  • Simple help with studies and work

Premium Tier

Pay-as-you-go with MAI tokens. For complex tasks requiring serious computational power.

  • Code writing and programming
  • Image generation and design
  • Video processing and creation
  • Deep analysis of large datasets

Premium tier advantages:

  • Dynamic pricing — pay less during low network load
  • Discounts up to 20% when staking MAI tokens
  • 10 times cheaper than competitors

Income Distribution

Each transaction in the MAI ecosystem is distributed as follows:

  • 65% — for project development and founders
  • 35% — token burning (deflation)

The project's goal is to gradually increase the burning percentage to 99%, leaving only 1% to developers. This will make MAI a maximally deflationary asset, constantly increasing the token value for holders.

Unique Advantages of MAI

Decentralized architecture and mining make MAI a unique AI, surpassing centralized competitors:

  • Continuous learning — thousands of miners process requests 24/7, constantly improving the model on real data
  • Censorship resistance — no single point of control, impossible to block or restrict access
  • Distributed processing — tasks are processed in parallel on thousands of nodes, speeding up operation
  • Transparency and trust — all computations are recorded on blockchain, any operation can be verified
  • Scalability — the network grows with the number of miners, no power limitations

Core Technology Framework of MAI

Decentralized AI Infrastructure

MAI combines advanced blockchain and distributed computing technologies, creating an AI 'brain' that runs on thousands of devices worldwide. It's like a global supercomputer where every participant becomes an essential part of the system.

Blockchain Layer: Solana Network

  • ▸ Heart of the ecosystem: token and smart contract management
  • ▸ Speed: 50,000 transactions/sec (1000x faster than Ethereum)
  • ▸ Energy efficiency: 0.4 sec per transaction confirmation
  • ▸ DAO Governance: community management through voting

MAI Core: Proof-of-Useful-Work (PoUW)

We turned mining from wasting energy into doing useful AI work. Your computing power now solves real tasks:

Computation:

  • ▸ Processing AI requests (text, images, etc.) — your resources are used for real AI tasks.
  • ▸ Neural network training (federated learning) — your hardware helps train AI models without sending sensitive data.
  • ▸ Zero-Knowledge Proofs for verification — compute power verifies results securely and transparently.

Benefits:

  • ▸ Eco-friendly — energy is used efficiently for real work.

  • ▸ State Compression — storing ZK-proofs in compressed accounts
  • ▸ Resource Oracle — dynamic task allocation via Solana Compute Units

Zero-Knowledge Proofs (ZKP)

Zero-Knowledge Proofs (ZKP) is a cryptographic method where one party can prove something to another without revealing any other information. It's like proving you know a password without saying it or confirming a result without showing the inputs.

How is ZKP used in MAI?

  • ▸ Computation verification — miners prove correct execution without revealing input data.
  • ▸ Privacy protection — users can perform confidential tasks without exposing data.
  • ▸ Network security — prevents fraud; attackers can’t fake results due to real compute requirements.

Why it matters to you?

  • Privacy — your AI requests remain anonymous.
  • Integrity — prevents result tampering.
  • Efficiency — fast validation with minimal resources.

Presale Plan

Fair and Transparent Sale Plan

We carefully designed the MAI token sale plan so that every participant can benefit. Our goal is to build an honest and transparent system where each presale phase offers unique advantages. With a vesting plan in place, we ensure that all supporters are rewarded for their contributions to the project.

Benefits for Early Participants

Presale participants get tokens at the best price with maximum discounts. The earlier you join, the greater your advantage.

Investor Protections

We implemented a vesting plan to protect investors and ensure token market stability. Your tokens will unlock gradually, minimizing risks.

MAI features an advanced and balanced tokenomics system that benefits all MAI holders — regardless of when they purchase their tokens. TGE (Token Generation Event) unlock — the percentage of tokens unlocked immediately after TGE (the official token listing). Then comes the Cliff — a period during which the remaining tokens stay temporarily locked. Finally, the remaining tokens unlock monthly over the vesting period. Thus, early buyers get a better price, while late buyers receive full unlocks faster.

Example of Token Unlocking

Example for Stage 1 — you purchased 100,000 MAI tokens in Stage 1 of the Presale. The vesting will occur as follows:

  • ▸TGE (Token Generation Event): 3% of tokens (3,000 MAI) will unlock immediately after listing.
  • ▸Cliff: During the first 4 months, no tokens will unlock.
  • ▸Vesting: After the Cliff ends, tokens unlock in equal parts over 10 months.

Example for Stage 10 — you purchased 100,000 MAI tokens in Stage 10 of the Presale. The vesting will occur as follows:

  • ▸TGE (Token Generation Event): 7% of tokens (7,000 MAI) will unlock immediately after listing.
  • ▸Cliff: No locking period at this stage.
  • ▸Vesting: Without Cliff, tokens unlock equally over 8 months.

TGE Unlock — percentage of tokens immediately released during the Token Generation Event (TGE).

Cliff — a time period (in months) during which tokens remain locked before distribution begins.

Vesting — the period (in months) during which the remaining tokens are gradually released. Tokens accrue every minute.

If you purchased tokens in different Presale stages, tokens from each stage will unlock according to their individual schedules!

Why is Vesting Important?

MAI token vesting is crucial for ensuring long-term project stability. It helps to:

  • ▸Protect investors: Gradual unlocking prevents extreme market fluctuations.
  • ▸Encourage long-term commitment: Vesting motivates participants to stay involved and support growth.
  • ▸Ensure sustainability: Gradual release reduces the risk of market manipulation.

We aim to build a sustainable ecosystem where every participant can be confident in the long-term success of the project.

Tokenomics MAI

Initial issuance of MAI: 10,000,000,000. Token distribution follows the plan outlined below. We've carefully balanced the economy to keep it liquid and sustainable.

Tokenomics Highlights:

  • ▸Initial issuance: 10,000,000,000 MAI.
  • ▸The total supply is unlimited. After the launch of MAI mining and the AI client, new tokens can be generated — this ensures scalability and sustainable growth of the ecosystem.
  • ▸Deflationary system and token burning.
  • ▸Miners receive fair rewards (see Mining).
  • ▸Mining rewards decrease by 10% of the current amount every 6 months.
  • ▸Staking MAI tokens provides up to a 20% discount on premium AI requests and grants participation rights in the DAO (see Staking).
  • ▸Two levels of AI access: Basic — free, Premium — paid with MAI tokens (see About MAI).
  • ▸Revenue distribution from premium requests: 65% goes to project development and founders, 35% is burned (deflation). In the future, the burn rate will gradually increase to 99%, making MAI a highly deflationary asset.

Example 1: Miner with a budget PC

Configuration: CPU 2 GHz, GPU 2 MH/s, 8 GB RAM, 50 GB Storage, 10 Mbps network
Calculation:
- GPU: 2 MH/s × 5 MAI = 10 MAI/hour
- CPU: 2 GHz × 2 MAI = 4 MAI/hour
- RAM: 8 GB × 0.5 MAI = 4 MAI/hour
- Storage: 50 GB × 0.1 MAI = 0.5 MAI/hour
- Network: 10 Mbps × 0.1 MAI = 1 MAI/hour
Total hourly income: 19.5 MAI
Monthly income (75% uptime): 19.5 MAI × 24 × 30 × 0.75 = 10,530 MAI (~$105.30 at $0.01 rate)

Example 2: Miner with a top-tier rig

Configuration: GPU 50 MH/s, CPU 10 GHz, 64 GB RAM, 1 TB Storage, 100 Mbps network
Calculation:
- GPU: 50 MH/s × 5 MAI = 250 MAI/hour
- CPU: 10 GHz × 2 MAI = 20 MAI/hour
- RAM: 64 GB × 0.5 MAI = 32 MAI/hour
- Storage: 1000 GB × 0.1 MAI = 10 MAI/hour
- Network: 100 Mbps × 0.1 MAI = 10 MAI/hour
Total hourly income: 322 MAI
Monthly income (90% uptime): 322 MAI × 24 × 30 × 0.9 = 208,656 MAI (~$2086.56 at $0.01 rate)

Miner Income Formula

  • Income = (GPU_{hash} × GPU_{price} + CPU_{GHz} × CPU_{price} + RAM_{GB} × RAM_{price} + Storage_{GB} × Storage_{price} + Network_{Mbps} × Network_{price}) × Hours worked

Staking

What is Staking?

Staking means locking your MAI tokens in a smart contract to gain voting rights in the DAO and discounts on premium AI requests. The more tokens you stake, the greater your influence on the project's development and the more profitable your use of MAI services becomes!

Benefits of Staking

  • Discounts on premium requests: Get up to 20% off all premium AI requests, proportional to the number of tokens you’ve staked.
  • Voting rights in DAO: Directly influence project development — vote on key decisions in proportion to your stake.
  • Flexibility: No fixed terms — keep your tokens staked as long as you wish. Unstaking takes 14 days.

Staking Terms

Number of TokensPremium DiscountDAO Voting Power
100,000 MAI1%Minimum (100K tokens)
500,000 MAI5%Proportional to stake
1,000,000 MAI10%Proportional to stake
2,000,000 MAI20%Maximum (2M tokens)

🔹 The discount is calculated proportionally: from 100,000 (1%) to 2,000,000 tokens (20%). Voting rights are active only while staking is active.

How Does Unstaking Work?

You can initiate the unstaking process at any time. It takes 14 days to protect against voting manipulation.

Start Unstaking

Click the unstake button in your account. From that moment, you lose your DAO voting rights and premium request discounts.

Wait 14 Days

After 14 days, your tokens will automatically be unlocked and returned to your wallet. You can cancel the unstaking process at any time.

How to Start Staking?

1. Connect Your Wallet

Use a supported wallet (e.g., MetaMask or Trust Wallet) and connect it to the MAI platform.

2. Choose the Amount

Specify how many MAI tokens to stake. The minimum is 100,000 MAI for voting rights, and the maximum is 2,000,000 MAI for the highest discount.

3. Confirm the Transaction

Confirm the transaction in your wallet. The tokens will be locked in the smart contract.

4. Enjoy the Benefits

Immediately after locking your tokens, you gain DAO voting rights and premium request discounts proportional to your stake.

FAQ — Staking

When will Staking start?
Staking will begin after the MAI client launch (see Roadmap).
What is DAO voting?
DAO voting is the project’s governance mechanism. By staking MAI tokens, you gain the right to vote on important decisions: protocol updates, fund allocation, new features. Your voting power is proportional to the number of staked tokens (from 100,000 to 2,000,000 MAI).
How do I unstake my tokens?
Start the unstaking process in your account. After 14 days, your tokens will automatically return to your wallet. During the unstaking period, you lose your voting rights and discounts, but you can cancel the process at any time.
How is the discount calculated?
The discount is calculated proportionally to the number of staked tokens: 100,000 MAI = 1%, 500,000 MAI = 5%, 1,000,000 MAI = 10%, 2,000,000 MAI = 20%. Intermediate values are calculated linearly.
Why is there a minimum and maximum?
The minimum of 100,000 MAI helps prevent spam voting. The maximum of 2,000,000 MAI prevents large holders from manipulating decisions and ensures fair distribution of influence in the DAO.
How does voting weight work?
Your voting weight is proportional to the number of staked tokens. For example, if you have 500,000 MAI staked and another participant has 1,000,000 MAI, their vote will count twice as much as yours.

Budget FAQ

How will the $8.5M budget be allocated?
The budget is allocated across 5 key areas: Development (53%), Marketing (23.5%), Operations (11.8%), Exchange Listing (9.4%), and Reserve Fund (2.3%). This ensures maximum focus on building the platform while maintaining strong marketing and operational support.
Why is 53% allocated to development?
Development is our top priority as it includes building the AI client, blockchain platform, mining/staking systems, and mobile applications. This significant investment ensures a high-quality, secure, and scalable platform capable of supporting millions of users over multiple years.
How will budget spending be tracked and reported?
After the presale completion, we will provide quarterly financial transparency reports to the community, detailing spending across all categories: development, marketing, operations, listings, and reserve fund. All significant expenses will be documented and published through our official Telegram channels and website.
What if the full $8.5M budget is not raised?
Maximum resources will be allocated to AI client development as our top priority. Any shortfall will be compensated through revenue generation from platform operations. However, our presale structure and budget plan are specifically designed to avoid this scenario and ensure we raise sufficient funds to execute the full roadmap without compromise.
When will the funds be spent?
Stage 1 (Q4 2025-Q2 2026): Initial development, presale marketing, exchange listings. Stage 2-3 (Q3 2026-Q1 2028): AI client development, platform launch, mining system. Stage 4-5 (Q2 2028-Q1 2029): Mobile app development, global expansion, ecosystem growth.
Why is a significant amount allocated for exchange listings?
Initially, the MAI token will be launched on decentralized exchanges (DEX) with a focus on creating deep liquidity and stable trading. Primary funds at this stage will be directed to providing DEX pool liquidity. After successful launch and price stabilization, we will proceed with listings on centralized exchanges (CEX), which require significant listing fees and additional liquidity for market making.
How is transparency of fund spending ensured?
All project treasury accounts are located directly in the smart contract on the Solana blockchain. This means complete transparency - any participant can track fund movements in real-time: how much is taken and where it is transferred. The blockchain provides an immutable history of all transactions.
How will the $2M marketing budget be spent?
Marketing funds will be spent gradually throughout the entire project roadmap. The main marketing focus will be during two key periods: during the presale to attract early users and before the AI client announcement for maximum audience reach. This will allow efficient resource allocation and achieve the best results.

FAQ

Here you will find answers to the most frequently asked questions about the MAI project. If you still have questions, contact our support team

What is MAI?
MAI is a decentralized platform that combines artificial intelligence and blockchain technologies. We are building an ecosystem where everyone can contribute to AI development and earn rewards.
What will be the listing price of MAI?
Our projected minimum listing price is $0.0025, however this is not guaranteed. The actual market price will be determined by supply and demand at launch and may be higher or lower than projected.
When will the MAI client be launched?
We are already developing the MAI client. The full launch is planned between Q3 2027 and Q1 2028 (see Roadmap).
Why is MAI supply unlimited?
The project is designed for massive scaling and long-term growth, so we cannot limit the number of tokens — this would restrict the number of miners. However, we have a burn mechanism and a sustainable economic model to maintain liquidity and stability.
When will MAI Mining start?
MAI Mining will begin after the MAI client is released (see Roadmap).
When will Staking start?
Staking will start after the MAI client launch (see Roadmap).

What are the benefits of holding MAI tokens?
MAI token holders can participate in staking to receive up to a 20% discount on premium AI requests and gain voting rights in the DAO. The tokens are also required to unlock premium AI capabilities and access advanced platform features. All future updates and NFT improvements will only be available when paid with MAI tokens. The staking limit of 2,000,000 tokens is set to prevent manipulation and maintain a fair balance of influence within the DAO.
How can I buy MAI tokens?
You can buy MAI tokens during the Presale or after listing on exchanges. Connect your wallet and follow the instructions on our website.
What technologies are used in MAI?
We use the Solana blockchain for high-speed transactions, PoUW (Proof-of-Useful-Work) for computation, decentralized storage (IPFS and Arweave), and Zero-Knowledge Proofs for task verification.

What is an NFT in MAI?
NFTs in MAI provide exclusive benefits such as early access to mining, mining bonuses, and early voting rights in DAO. Currently, 4 NFT levels are available (Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum) with various bonuses from +5% to +20% for mining. In the future, we plan to expand the NFT ecosystem: upgrading existing NFTs, creating new collections, collectible NFTs, utility NFTs with practical functions, gaming NFTs for tournaments, and achievement NFTs for special merits in the ecosystem.
What are the plans for developing the NFT ecosystem in the future?
We plan to continuously develop the NFT ecosystem with many new directions: improving existing NFTs, creating new collections, collectible and utility NFTs, gaming NFTs, and achievement NFTs. All actions related to upgrading, updating, or creating NFTs will require the use of MAI tokens — these operations will be carried out using MAI.
