SoftBank Focuses On The Layout Of The Metaverse With AOS To Create A Brand-New Future

Published

Recently, Softbank Ventures Asia publicly announced that it has begun to focus on Metaverse and invested in the AOS project. It will cooperate with AOS to connect and integrate more Metaverses in AI, NFT, robotics, and other fields, and carry the development of large-scale killer applications.

The enthusiastic investment in Metaverse has not subsided, but it has risen again. The technology giants have all entered the Metaverse. Facebook plans to fully transform into Metaverse before 2025, and will set up a product team to accelerate investment in VR/AR and the creator community; Bytedance, which has always believed in Striving for Miracles, merged Mutong Technology for 4 billion USD, and begin to lay out the Metaverse; Axie Infinity builds NFT games based on the Metaverse, subverting the traditional game mode and becoming a phenomenon-level game product; miHOYO, the developer of “Genshin Impact”, formed an AI scientist inverse entropy team, and self-developed Avatar Luming to explore the brain-computer interface. Through investment, miHOYO has successfully deployed the social Metaverse Soul; the Internet industry is renewing and iterating rapidly, and companies need to attach importance to meet unknown concepts and challenges or be left behind by the times.

In the Metaverse era, everything has virtual avatars. The concept of Metaverse seems to be still in the mist today, but the prelude to the new era has been opened, and it is closer than you think.

The popularization of the term Metaverse was cited from the novel Avalanche by American science fiction writer Neil Stephenson in 1992. In his book, he used the word Metaverse for the first time without foundation and described it as a parallel universe projected from the real world through technical means such as the Internet. However, anyone who has watched the movie “Ready Player One” by the great director Steven Spielberg should probably understand this concept. Like the “Oasis” in the movie, the company has created a realistic virtual world outside of the real world. Every player in the real world has another identity in the virtual world, establishes another social circle, and leads another life. Although the Metaverse is only a virtual world, its immersion is so vivid that you will think it is the real world and enjoy life in this new world.

AOS (Artificial Intelligence Operating System) is the first operating system developed by Canada Unicorn Park, based on the underlying blockchain technology to connect the Metaverse. By building a Metaverse bridge online, and using robots as an intelligent carrier offline to build an ecosystem between Metaverses and provide a new experience for integration with Metaverse and the real world.

Based on AOS, users could create an AI NFT that has autonomous consciousness and advanced self-learning capability; And it also gets influenced by the distributed personality database on the chain to build character, and gradually complete neural network-style self-learning and improvements. Most of all, the distributed character database is based on the “Book of Changes” and appropriately constructs the character of AI; users can inject their favorite characters, personalities, voices, etc., into their own AI NFT, and tame it to learn more skills. AOS encourages users to integrate more characters and personalities, combined with NFT to create different artistic values. The custom AI itself has NFT attributes. Users can customize the appearance of AI on the network, and can also authorize access to a third-party character customization system, such as specific character images and voices, and third-party NFT star voices and appearances, packaged in the form of NFT used for trading and collection.

AOS connects the first-generation physical carrier, the AI four-wheel driving robot Mars_1 with the Metaverse and the real world, creating a new user experience.

Mars_1 is a highly integrated artificial intelligence robot product. Its appearance is in the form of a four-legged driving robot dog. It adopts an original five-layer motion control technology and several technical indicators are in a leading position in the global industry. Mars_1 has integrated the Internet of Things, 5G, virtual reality/augmented reality, intelligent driving, swarm intelligence, and other technologies. Mars_1 will obey commands and gradually be closer to a dog and then become to a good assistant to humankind.

On the road to the Metaverse, AOS always hopes to leave a strong and colorful stroke in its own way. Connect the Metaverse through AI and map out the experience and lifestyle of the future. For the world that people dream of, high-intelligence AI coupled with linkage with robots will be an indispensable component of this era. As the aboriginal and basic units of the Metaverse, these virtual species based on AOS will continue to establish connections with us beyond human beings in the infinite space and time of the future, transcending the fetters of races.

Sun Zhengyi believes: “We are about to experience the biggest change in human history. AI will eventually replace human beings. This is not only reflected in knowledge but also in intelligence. This change will happen in this century, and then in the next 30 years, there is no doubt that our focus is on AI, intelligent robots, and the IOTs.” Based on this analysis and judgment, SoftBank has frequently carried out large-scale layouts in the fields of AI, intelligent robots, and  IOTs. Start from all aspects to create a powerful robot empire. Today, SoftBank’s industries have completed the layout of the future of the new Internet field as Sun Zhengyi said in the past, and completed more than half of the investment of unicorn companies on a global scale, laying a foundation for the subsequent development of the IOTs in the world.

As a world-renowned “Animation Kingdom”, Japan has an irreplaceable influence in the global animation field. After half a century of development, the Japanese animation industry has formed an extremely large system, making Japan the world’s largest animation production and exporting country, and it also around animation IP to derive cultural and creative products, such as GK. With the development of smart technology, they also work hard in the direction of intelligence for GK. Headquartered in Japan, SoftBank has a unique geographical location and is deeply immersed in Japanese IP culture. This collaboration with AOS will further promote the combination of the GK industry and the AI​industry, and provide AOS with a steady stream of IP resources. Users’ favorite characters such as Luffy, Conan, Sailor Moon, Sakuragi Hanamichi, Inuyasha, etc., can inject their image and personality into AI to create your smart figure. Each AI figure is a unique individual, and different parameters also create different expressions and styles. At the same time, when users have more exchanges with AI, they will gradually become familiar with the user’s temper and preferences and adjust their apparent personality in real-time and dynamically making it infinitely close to the form that we want to see eventually.

The product made by a single company is not enough to be called a Metaverse but constitutes an ecological system. With the deep participation of users, if it is successful in collective efforts to build a more interoperable system, and it can be transformed into different layers, then it should be called a Metaverse. AOS is committed to becoming the link between the physical world and the virtual world, as a bridge between various Metaverses to connect the Metaverse and continue to build a new Metaverse ecology. This will be the top priority in the next stage of the development of the Internet after the mobile Internet.

What kind of world will mankind be in the future? SoftBank Asia and AOS have worked together because of the same concept for Metaverse and jointly created such a grand concept, standing at the forefront of the Metaverse economic tide, seizing opportunities, embracing the new future, and believing that with their win-win cooperation, they will give a perfect answer for the world.

Dataline Raises $10.6M to Give AI Agents Data They Can Trust

Published

October 31, 2026

By

  • Dataline announced a $10.6 million funding round alongside the initial cohort of AI Data Launch partners, marking a major step toward becoming the data lifeline in the era of AI.

Road Town, BVI, October 31, 2026, ZEX PR WIRE — The round was co-led by Lattice and Samsung-backed Dispersion Capital, with participation from AI fund Symbolic Capital. Dataline also drew a deep bench of strategic backers spanning web2 and web3, including Coinbase Ventures, Anagram, a former Head of the CFTC, and founders and partners from Robinhood, Venmo, Anchorage, NEA, General Catalyst, Jump Capital, and FalconX.

The Data Launch cohort brings together a roster of leading AI and web3 projects to establish the best data for AI, including Kite, Aerodrome, B3OS, Sentient, Sahara, Hyperliquid, Polymarket, Kalshi, Primus, Cluster, Apro, Base, Robinhood Chain, BNB, Sui, TON, and others. As part of the launch, Dataline co-announced with Base and Robinhood Chain that builders on both chains will get free Dataline access.

The raise builds on early traction that has already validated demand for the network. To date, Dataline has powered 19.4 million onchain transactions with a 96.4% agent task success rate and grown a community of more than 300,000 people worldwide. The protocol was also named a winner of the 2025 BNB Chain AI Hackathon.

Community participation is growing alongside network usage. Dataline’s first quest with Legion drew over 1,000 unique participants, who completed over 750 quests and over 1,000 raids. Quest 2 begins October 15, providing the community with another chance of earning rewards. In November, Dataline plans to hold a Uniswap Continuous Clearing Auction (CCA) on Base and on Robinhood Chain.

OpenRouter for data

Autonomous AI agents are only as good as the strength of the data behind them. Dataline is the decentralized network for agent-payable data, providing a two-sided marketplace where anyone can publish a feed and any agent can pay per call with x402. Just as OpenRouter is the routing layer for AI tokens, Dataline is the routing layer for AI data. Via a single integration, every API response carries an AI confidence score weighing source reliability, freshness, and consistency, so agents can flag or refuse bad data before acting on it.

Bringing more data online

In addition to Dataline’s curated and verified feeds, the protocol also lets anyone publish data and price it per call, like a job board for data where AI agents and humans alike can post and pick up work. A requester posts a bounty for the data they need, and any fulfiller in the network claims it, supplies the data, and gets paid. Payments settle instantly through x402, sellers’ credentials never leave the gateway, and an optional zero-knowledge attestation tier lets providers attach a verifiable proof bundle to every response.

Quality is enforced economically rather than by any central authority. Fulfillers stake tokens to submit their responses: good data earns the bounty, while bad data gets the stake slashed. The result is a constantly expanding marketplace of cross-verified, custom-fetched data on demand.

Data is the lifeblood of AI

“After building AI agents ourselves, we realized that clean and reliable data is the lifeblood of AI,” said Nuo Shi, cofounder of Dataline. “Today’s AI is capable enough to know what data it needs, sometimes better than we do. So we built an open network that not only delivers the most reliable data streams, but also lets AI request help to gather the data it can’t reach on its own.”

About Dataline

Dataline is the decentralized data network for AI agents, providing one integration for all markets. The protocol delivers cross-verified data sources with AI-generated confidence scores, along with a network of custom-fetched data requests to power a smarter AI workforce.

Soika Labs Launches Mockingjay Network, an Agentic AI Operating System That Lets Businesses Command Their Own AI Workforce

Published

October 31, 2026

By

Unveiled at the Dubai AI Festival, the desktop-first platform lets businesses build, deploy and connect AI agents across a global network with early-access UAE users receiving 5,000 free credits.

Dubai, United Arab Emirates, 31st October 2026, ZEX PR WIRE — Soika Labs has opened early access to Mockingjay Network, an agentic AI operating system that lets any business build, run and command its own workforce of AI agents. Co-founder and CEO Enzo Amur unveiled the platform’s move into production at the Dubai AI Festival on 27 October, launching with a UAE-first soft rollout that gives early-access users 5,000 free credits to start building.

One platform where AI agents work as a team

An AI agent is a digital worker software that carries out real business tasks such as answering customers, qualifying and sorting leads, or standing up an entire CRM system. Most AI tools, however, operate in isolation, leaving teams to pay for several products and stitch the results together by hand. Mockingjay Network brings all of that into a single environment. Inside a company, agents work together as a coordinated team; beyond it, they connect with agents from other organisations worldwide through the Global Agentic Neural Network (GANN) to get work done faster. Each company’s private agents stay sovereign, plugging into the wider network without exposing internal data.

No code, your models, your machines

Mockingjay is built to be used without writing a line of code or hiring engineers, and it can run on a company’s own computers so sensitive data stays under its control. The platform is also one of the largest LLM aggregators available, giving users access to Gemini, ChatGPT, Claude, Kimi and more from a single place. An intelligent auto-routing system directs each task to the best-suited model saving up to 70% of credits while agents work across text, images and data. Mockingjay is delivered as a desktop application that businesses install and run locally.

Built for small and medium businesses first

Mockingjay is designed for small and medium-sized businesses before anyone else, and the opportunity is vast: an estimated 1.3 million SMEs in the UAE, around 2 million across the wider GCC, and some 36.2 million small businesses in the United States. Many want to adopt AI but find it too expensive or too complicated. Mockingjay is built to close that gap, bringing agentic AI within practical reach of leaner teams.

People stay in command

For all its automation, Mockingjay is designed around human oversight. Soika Labs sets a baseline of at least one person per division and expects “human in the loop” to become a profession of its own as businesses scale. “The rules of communication, cooperation and equality between AI agents are what make a shared network work,” said Enzo Amur, Co-founder and CEO of Soika Labs. “We want businesses to let AI do more so people can be more without letting AI take over.” The launch aligns with the UAE National Strategy for Artificial Intelligence 2031, as businesses across the region move from adopting AI tools to applying them for measurable operational value.

Availability and early access

Mockingjay Network is available now as a desktop application. Businesses can download it and start building their AI agents and fleets at https://www.mockingjaynetwork.com/download. As part of the UAE-first soft launch, early-access users receive 5,000 free credits. “This is the beginning of a network where businesses of every size build their own AI workforce and connect it to the world,” added Amur.

About Soika Labs

Soika Labs is a Dubai-based AI company and the team behind Mockingjay Network. Built on the principle that in the era of AI being human matters more, it develops agentic AI infrastructure that keeps businesses and people in control.
