DGrid AI Nets $20M in Six Months Ahead of DGAI Launch

DGrid AI reported $20 million in revenue in its first six months from the Genesis premium program as the project prepares for its planned DGAI token launch. The program enrolled more than 13,000 paid users with an average revenue per user of about $1,580.

Genesis premium members receive access to the DGrid network and bundled benefits that include AI usage credits, hardware incentives, monthly token credits, access to AI model services and membership NFTs. DGrid said membership NFTs are tied to 25% of total DGAI emission rights to be distributed over ten years. Treasury activity for the program is publicly verifiable on a BNB Chain Safe wallet.

DGrid reported 50,000 daily active users and roughly 500,000 monthly active users across its ecosystem. The company characterized Genesis as a source of early revenue and committed user activity ahead of the token generation event.

Onchain engagement has risen through Arena for Agent, a product launched on BNB Chain. DGrid reported more than 10,000 agent deployments using the ERC-8004 standard, over 200,000 participants and an increase of more than 5,000 onchain daily active users to BNB Chain. Arena presents the same prompt to two AI models anonymously, lets users select the stronger response, and awards points tied to future DGAI distribution; those selections produce labeled comparison data for DGrid’s smart routing system.

DGrid described its product stack as addressing different stages of AI access and deployment. AI Gateway provides a single access point to multiple models and accepts payments in USDT, USDC and BNB. Dori compares models to help developers select the best option for specific tasks. DClaw enables deployment of personal AI agents across messaging platforms including Telegram, Discord, WeChat and Feishu. The company plans a model marketplace where providers can list services and collect revenue through AI Gateway, and a Proof of Quality layer intended to verify model performance, pricing and delivery standards.

The project cites academic work related to its platform, including papers on Proof of Quality, optimistic TEE rollups and cost-aware proofs that relate to verifying service quality, preserving confidentiality and controlling computation costs. The team includes Ph.D.-level researchers and founder and CEO Alex, who is listed with more than 10 years in blockchain project operations, five years in machine learning and over three years working on large language model training and fine-tuning.

DGrid said it is moving toward a DGAI token launch after six months of Genesis membership revenue, expanded onchain participation and collection of model comparison data intended to support its routing and marketplace services.
