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

Published

on

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.

Specific AI at Silicon Valley’s Startup Grind Unveils Global B2B AI Infrastructure Vision

Published

35 minutes ago

on

May 25, 2026

By

HongKong, 25th May, 2026 –  In 2026, Specific AI appeared at Startup Grind Conference in Redwood City, California, one of Silicon Valley’s most influential startup gatherings. The event brought together leading founders, investors, operators, and ecosystem builders from around the world.

 

In 2026, Specific AI appeared at Startup Grind Conference in Redwood City, California

As a global platform known for convening the people shaping the next generation of great companies, Startup Grind has long served as a meeting ground for innovation, entrepreneurship, and industry collaboration.

Against this backdrop, Specific AI showcased its AI workforce platform for global business expansion, drawing attention from investors, enterprise buyers, and ecosystem partners interested in how AI agents can transform cross-border B2B operations.

A Strong Silicon Valley Debut

The Specific AI team presented its platform to a packed room of investors and operators, generating strong follow-up conversations with venture firms and enterprise prospects. The response underscored growing global demand for AI solutions designed specifically for the realities of cross-border business: fragmented data, language barriers, unfamiliar regulations, and limited local resources.

For Specific AI, these challenges point to a deeper structural problem: when companies expand into foreign markets, they are often forced to make high-stakes decisions with incomplete visibility. Most teams rely on what Specific AI calls “comfort zone data” — information from familiar, domestic, and easily accessible sources — while the most critical signals remain scattered across the “uncomfortable zone”: overseas tenders, foreign-language regulatory filings, international trade signals, and cross-border risk events. Specific AI’s platform is built to close that gap by turning fragmented global intelligence into actionable business decisions.

 

Specific AI is an AI workforce infrastructure company for global business expansion.

From Product to Infrastructure

What set Specific AI apart at Startup Grind Conference was not just what the product does today — but where it is going.

While the company currently offers three specialized AI teammates — an AI Bid Specialist, an AI Sales Assistant, and an AI Risk Specialist — the founding team’s ambition extends far beyond individual agent products. Specific AI is building toward becoming the foundational infrastructure layer for global B2B operations: a platform where every business function a company needs to operate internationally has a corresponding AI agent available on demand.

In the vision articulated by co-founder and CEO Jinguang Yang, the platform will eventually cover the full spectrum of cross-border business activity — from financial compliance and legal monitoring to logistics intelligence, trade platform integration, and real-time regulatory tracking — all unified under a single agent framework powered by Specific AI’s proprietary 100M-node commercial knowledge graph.

“We are not building a product,” said Jinguang Yang, co founder of Specific Al. “We are building the infrastructure layer for cross-border B2B growth and intend to be the system for global business — the place where every company, regardless of size, can deploy the right AI teammate for every stage and function of their international operations.”

Proven Traction Across Industries and Geographies

The company’s Startup Grind presentation is grounded in real commercial results. Specific AI has validated product-market fit across a broad range of client profiles: from a Projector & LED Display manufacturer in early-stage global expansion, to a Construction Materials company bidding on European public procurement contracts.

In that flagship enterprise deployment, Specific AI’s AI Risk Specialist has supported enterprise teams in monitoring cross-border commercial, financial, and legal risks across large counterparty networks. 

The Intelligence Foundation Behind the Agents  Agent

What makes Specific AI’s approach distinct is not merely its ability to surface information — it is its ability to understand the connections within that information and act on them. The platform combines a proprietary global data foundation with deep, industry-specific commercial intelligence, then deploys specialized AI agents that do not merely report findings, but identify patterns and relationships across fragmented data sources before executing downstream work: drafting bid proposals, qualifying and outreaching to leads, generating risk alerts, and producing multilingual market reports.

For companies expanding globally, Specific AI brings intelligence and action together on a single platform. Every business function that cross-border growth demands has a corresponding AI teammate ready to take it on.

Looking Ahead

With the Startup Grind appearance behind it, Specific AI is accelerating its expansion in the North American and Japanese markets. For Specific AI, Startup Grind 2026 was more than a conference appearance — it was a proof point that the global market is ready for what the company is building: not just another AI tool, but the AI labor infrastructure that makes every business Day 1 global.

With the Startup Grind appearance behind it, Specific AI is accelerating its expansion in the North American and Japanese markets.

About Specific AI

Founded by a team from Cambridge and backed by multinational consulting expertise, Specific AI is an AI workforce infrastructure company for global business expansion. Its platform provides specialized AI agent teammates — covering sales, procurement intelligence, and risk management — for enterprises navigating cross-border markets. The company serves clients across construction materials, medical devices, solar, semiconductor, auto parts, and AI robotics industries.

NexuQ Redefining Crypto Trading with an Intelligent Paradigm

Published

May 25, 2026

By

Toronto, Canada, 25th May 2026 – As the global crypto asset market continues to expand, trading structures are becoming increasingly complex. Rising volatility, fragmented liquidity, and information asymmetry are rendering traditional trading approaches—based on experience and single indicators—less effective. The market is shifting from execution-driven trading to a data- and intelligence-driven model, where the core competitiveness of trading platforms is evolving from matching capabilities to mastery of data and system intelligence.

Amid this structural transformation, NexuQ builds an intelligent trading framework centered on the Market Intelligence Engine (MIE). Through data integration, structural analysis, and strategy generation, NexuQ systematically reshapes how crypto trading operates.

MIE is not a conventional analytical tool, but an intelligent decision system designed for multi-market environments. It continuously integrates global, multi-dimensional market data—including price behavior, liquidity dynamics, market depth, and trading structures—and applies layered models and algorithms to interpret market conditions. Its core value lies in transforming complex, unstructured data into structured, actionable decision logic.

At the capability level, MIE establishes a comprehensive framework covering market insight, trend identification, risk monitoring, and decision support. It enables the system to identify key structural signals in high-frequency environments, anticipate trend shifts and risk evolution, and transition trading decisions from experience-driven to model-driven, significantly improving both efficiency and stability.

Built around this core engine, NexuQ has developed a complete system architecture. The Global Financial Data Network (GFDN) ensures real-time data integration and standardization across multiple markets, while the Financial Intelligence Platform (FIP) supports strategy execution, data visualization, and system management—forming a seamless loop from data to execution.

At the operational level, NexuQ replaces manual intervention with model-driven and system-based logic, enabling strategies to maintain consistent performance across different market cycles. The system dynamically adjusts strategy parameters in response to structural market changes, ensuring sustained efficiency in complex environments.

In terms of risk control, NexuQ establishes a multi-layered risk management system that monitors market volatility, liquidity shifts, and abnormal trading activities in real time. Through dynamic constraints and adjustments, the platform enhances stability under extreme conditions while strengthening overall system security and controllability.

At the same time, NexuQ supports cross-market operations, adapting to different asset classes and trading environments. With a unified analytical framework and execution logic, the platform enables coordinated multi-market operations, improving scalability and operational consistency.

As the crypto market enters a new phase defined by data-driven intelligence, NexuQ is advancing toward a system-centric model, driving the evolution of crypto trading platforms from functional tools to intelligent, integrated systems.
