WAI is the native value accrual token for AI Waifu

In essence, we are building and monetizing the AI Character economy and where $WAI drives this, this is where our value capture comes from.

Deflationary & value protective design

• Fixed total token supply at 100M

• Strategic buyback & burns depending on the value captured

Captures high frequency spend sinks

• Payment currency used for subscriptions

• Pay per use for feature access and custom designs

Governs the AI Character Creator Economy

Creating characters on AI Waifu has two options:

1. We create it for you, bear costs, and retain LP ownership and fees

2. Pay 2,400 WAI (or the equivalent setup costs) and we will create the character and transfer full ownership of the LP and fees to you

Ownership in co-creating the Future of Love

• Access investor updates, metrics, effectively our data room

• Influencing power to steer strategy, contribute, and shape the future of companionship

Business model for AI Waifu

The primary revenue stream today comes from subscriptions/pay per use - on messages, selfies, manga generation etc. (any AI model inferencing used)

Because our roadmap will focus on personalisation and immersion - you can expect the other proven monetization models, i.e., content product offerings surrounding the IP (will be NFTs), gated communities for even more exclusive content, access to storyline levels etc. in the near future

$WAI will be the a proof to crypto and AI that it is the Schelling Point for Consumer AI
