PlayAI Launches Its Mainnet and Raises $6.3M For On-Chain Automation
PlayAI has just announced the official launch of its mainnet following a $2 million community fundraising led in partnership with Kaito. This news brings the project’s total funding to $6.3 million, reinforcing its mission to make AI-powered automation native to the blockchain.
In Brief
- PlayAI launches its mainnet after a $2M community fundraising, bringing its total funding to $6.3M.
- The platform enables creating and monetizing on-chain AI automations without coding, like the ‘Zapier’ of Web3.
- With its mainnet and subscription model, PlayAI paves the way for an agent economy driven by creators.
PlayAI is a programmable automation layer for AI and crypto, allowing anyone to build, deploy, and monetize intelligent on-chain workflows without coding. By connecting AI agents, Model Context Protocols, data markets, and decentralized infrastructures, PlayAI powers the next generation of composable agent economies.
This funding round adds to an initial $4.3 million funding, backed by top investors such as Jump Crypto, Brevan Howard, Polygon Ventures, Alphawave, and MH Ventures. The new capital injection, and backing once again from Polygon Ventures, highlights growing investor confidence in PlayAI’s ambition to simplify the intersection between AI and Web3.
“Zapier of on-chain AI”
Often described as the “Zapier of on-chain AI“, PlayAI allows anyone to create powerful automations without writing a single line of code, connecting wallets, APIs, Model Context Protocols (MCP), agents, and Web2/Web3 tools. Compatible with leading networks such as Ethereum, Solana, Polygon, and BNB Chain, PlayAI enables composing, deploying, and monetizing intelligent workflows in a few clicks.
During its beta phase, the project recorded impressive results:
- Over 3 million testnet transactions processed
- 2.25 million registrations
- 210,000 smart wallets created
- 170,000 active monthly users
- 50+ workflows and 100+ AI agents launched
A mainnet focused on creators
The mainnet launch, scheduled for the week of October 13, 2025, marks PlayAI’s transition to a sustainable and creator-oriented ecosystem. The platform introduces a subscription model, offering developers and creators the ability to generate revenue by publishing and sharing their on-chain workflows via PlayStudio (a no-code editor) and PlayHub (a unified command center).
The internet should run itself to fulfill your needs, and this launch is a step toward that agentic future. We’ve proven that AI and crypto can work together to deliver real outcomes, and by introducing the mainnet with subscriptions, we’re giving creators and developers a clear path to sustainable revenue.

Community-led agent economies
The $2 million fundraising led with Kaito illustrates PlayAI’s belief that agent economies will be born from communities that use and own the tools they operate. The round attracted a broad base of retail investors and developers from the DeFi, trading, gaming, and creator economy sectors, showing strong community enthusiasm.
Sandeep Nailwal, co-founder and CEO of Polygon Labs, said:
We believe PlayAI represents an interesting evolution in how AI and crypto intersect. By enabling anyone to build intelligent, automated workflows without code, the team is unlocking a new category of user-driven innovation. At Polygon, we back founders building infrastructure for the next internet and PlayAI’s approach to making automation composable across blockchains aligns perfectly with that thesis.
Towards a composable AI ecosystem
PlayAI’s Data Markets initiative encourages users to contribute and organize datasets that improve workflow performance and multi-chain compatibility. Meanwhile, the future PLAI token will serve as the economic foundation of the ecosystem, rewarding creators and aligning incentives between the PlayAI network and the workflows built on it.
With an operational mainnet and a growing community, PlayAI positions itself as a key infrastructure for the next generation of decentralized automations powered by artificial intelligence. A bridge between human creativity, intelligent agents, and on-chain execution.
