Oh, the cutting-edge platform at the intersection of AI and decentralised technologies, has closed a £3.5m oversubscribed seed round. Leading crypto and AI-focused investors such as Tangent, Big Brain Holdings, Kosmos Ventures, Tagus Capital, and Bodhi Ventures joined the round, alongside prominent angel investors including Yan Liberman (Delphi Ventures).

Oh is redefining the creator economy with AI-powered platforms that seamlessly integrate Web3 capabilities, empowering creators and users alike. At the heart of its offerings is OhChat, an AI-driven platform with close to 100,000 users spanning 174 countries. OhChat enables engagement with AI-generated characters, from entirely original creations to boundless digital twins of real-world figures. Celebrities like Carmen Electra, Kaili Thorne, and Rio Sage have already embraced the platform, collectively engaging over 10 million followers with their digital twins.

Building on this momentum, Oh is preparing to launch “superModels”—autonomous, next-gen AI digital creators with agentic capabilities. These superModels are more than chat companions; they can grow their own social media presence, remember user interactions across platforms, and evolve dynamic personalities through an integrated life planner. Through its strategic partners, users will be able to create, own, and monetise these AI-driven agents, with revenue streams flowing primarily to their owners. superModel owners will also be able to launch tokens for their superModels, tied to their revenue through permissionless buybacks, enabling anybody to share in the upside growth of their audiences and revenue streams.

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 personalise content with the power to create communities with agentic capabilities, built on the decentralisation and censorship resistance of Web3, traditional systems simply can’t compete. It’s a paradigm shift for creators, consumers, and investors alike.

In Q1, Oh plans to roll out token capabilities to underpin the ecosystem, offering staking incentives and enabling tokenised ownership of superModels. Built on the Solana blockchain, this tokenised infrastructure will empower a new creator economy where communities can invest in and benefit from the growth of boundless, AI-driven agents.
