Fetch.ai is a technology company and a decentralized blockchain platform that can create agents, which are software programs (similar to smart contracts) on the Fetch platform. These virtual agents can fetch external API requests.[1]

History

Fetch.ai was founded in 2017 by a team from Cambridge, UK.[2]

It conducted an IEO on Binance in March 2019.[2] Fetch.ai launched its native token (FET).[3][4]

In 2021, the company launched the NFT machine-learning platform for AI-generated art.[5]

In March 2022, Fetch.ai partnered with West Ham United as the club's official artificial intelligence partner (both men's and women's teams).[6][7]

In March 2023, Fetch.ai raised a $40M round led by DWF Labs.[8][4][9]

Overview

Fetch.ai is an open-source decentralized machine-learning platform for creating semi-autonomous economic agents. [2][10][11][12][3][13][8]

While Fetch is incapable of directly hosting AI models and AI chatbots on its blockchain, it can host non-AI agents (basic web programs) on its Agentverse,[14]. These agents can then "fetch" 3rd-party AI responses using external API requests or coordinate requests between them.[15]

Fetch.ai operates in the US and Europe.[10][4][16]

The company is headquartered in Cambridge,[17] Humayun Sheikh is the CEO and founder.[4]
