SingularityNET is a founding member of the ASI Alliance and a pioneer in decentralized Artificial General Intelligence (AGI). Created by Dr. Ben Goertzel and a team of AI researchers, it was the first platform to enable AI services to be deployed, shared, and monetized at scale on the blockchain—democratizing access to advanced AI and ensuring that its evolution remains open, ethical, and community-driven.

SingularityNET provides key components of the ASI Alliance’s innovation stack, contributing research, open-source infrastructure, and governance models aimed at accelerating the emergence of decentralized superintelligence.

What SingularityNET Enables

OpenCog Hyperon
Hyperon is SingularityNET’s next-generation cognitive architecture for AGI, combining neural networks with symbolic reasoning and probabilistic logic. It’s designed to support scalable, self-improving intelligence that can reason abstractly, learn continuously, and operate autonomously across domains. Hyperon powers foundational layers of AGI development within the ASI ecosystem.

MeTTa & Atomspace
At the core of Hyperon are MeTTa (Meta Type Talk) and Atomspace. MeTTa is a metaprogramming language designed to model intelligent behavior, while Atomspace is a hypergraph-based memory system that stores structured knowledge. Together, they enable AI systems that can not only learn and infer, but also self-reflect and generalize across complex environments.

Deep Funding
SingularityNET runs Deep Funding, a community-governed grant program offering milestone-based FET grants for AI services, research, and tools. Developers apply with proposals that are voted on by token holders. This program directly fuels innovation in areas like NLP, robotics, decentralized reasoning, and cross-chain AI services.

Agent Framework
SingularityNET’s AI services are built around an open agent-based architecture. Developers can create AI agents, publish them to the SingularityNET Marketplace, and allow others to integrate or pay for these services using tokens. This agent model is now interoperable with other alliance tools such as ASI:Create, ASI:Train, and ASI:Learn.

SingularityNET Marketplace
A decentralized platform for publishing and consuming AI services. It enables interoperability between AI modules and fosters collaborative workflows between human and machine agents. The marketplace helps lower barriers to AI development while ensuring creators retain control and monetization rights.

Scientific Research & AGI Alignment
SingularityNET leads the ASI Alliance’s AGI alignment efforts, working at the intersection of philosophy, neuroscience, and formal reasoning. Through its internal research groups and academic collaborations, the team regularly contributes to peer-reviewed publications on decentralized cognition, AI ethics, and neural-symbolic architectures.

SingularityNET’s Role in the ASI Ecosystem

As the research and cognition pillar of the ASI Alliance, SingularityNET provides:

  • Core AGI technologies and cognitive architectures via Hyperon

  • Decentralized funding and governance through Deep Funding

  • Agent-based models that integrate seamlessly into the ASI stack

  • Expertise in alignment, transparency, and open scientific collaboration

SingularityNET’s commitment to transparency, technical rigor, and community involvement makes it a cornerstone of the ASI Alliance mission: to ensure that Artificial Superintelligence evolves as a public good—beneficial, participatory, and accessible to all.
