Imagine a world where artificial intelligence and cryptocurrency, two of today’s most influential technologies, converge to transform digital finance. This vision is a reality with Hero.io, a leading platform that leverages AI to deliver cutting-edge insights into Web3 and decentralized finance (DeFi). Developed by Cambridge PhD researchers leveraging a novel AI model architecture and crypto-specific data streams, Hero.io is not just enhancing the crypto experience—it’s revolutionizing it.
The Technology Behind Hero AI Search
Hero.io’s AI search engine is powered by a proprietary framework called pre-emptive agentic flow, developed by Apta—a company founded by leading Cambridge PhD researchers. Apta’s framework enables conversational AI systems that excel at complex analysis and deriving actionable insights. Apta’s technology for Hero.io surpasses traditional Large Language Models (LLMs) by leveraging LLMs only to interpret the question, and formulate conversational responses. The ‘cognitive heavy-lifting’ is done by a collection of crypto-specialized agents, powered by crypto-specific data, that are capable of handling relevant data forms i.e. numbers, tables, videos, and can perform complex functions requiring logic and reasoning – areas where LLMs fall short, as they are primarily designed to predict the next word in a sequence.
Hero AI Search also benefits from proprietary datasets accumulated over 1.5 years, enabling it to deliver unparalleled results. By tapping into both static and dynamic data sources, the system offers unique insights that are difficult to obtain individually. This combination of advanced AI models and rich datasets makes Hero AI Search the go-to tool for users seeking accurate, actionable insights in real-time.
With Hero AI Search, you can use natural language to query blockchain data directly, assess project health scores, and examine smart contract vulnerabilities for fraud protection. The platform also helps you identify bullish and bearish trends through its Chart Analytics Expert, analyze the historical performance of coins promoted by influencers, and get real-time sentiment analysis for thousands of coins.
The Chat-to-Trade feature, set to launch in version 2 of the product, will enable users to execute trades like professionals by simply using natural language queries. These are just a few examples of what Hero AI Search can do, with even more capabilities to explore. The first version of the product will be released in Q4 2024.
