## Team / Description

## Overview

Web3 protocols spend millions on user acquisition, yet most of those users never convert, never understand the product, and never return.

NexID transforms education into a **verifiable, onchain acquisition funnel**, ensuring every rewarded user has actually learned, engaged, and executed.

In Web3, capital is onchain but user understanding isn’t. **NexID aims to close that gap.**

---

## The Problem

Today, growth in Web3 is fundamentally broken:

- Protocols rely on quest platforms that optimize for **cheap, temporary metrics**
- Users farm rewards without understanding the product
- Retention is near zero, LTV is low, and conversion is unverified

To compensate, teams stitch together fragmented systems:

- Disjointed documentation  
- Manual KOL campaigns  
- Disconnected onchain tracking  

This stack is:

- Expensive  
- Fragile  
- Highly susceptible to **Sybil farming and AI-generated spam**

---

## The Solution: Verifiable Education

NexID introduces a new primitive: **proof of understanding as a condition for rewards.**

We enforce this through a closed-loop system:

### 1. Prove Attention  
**Interactive Video + Proprietary Heartbeat**

- Video-based content increases engagement friction  
- Heartbeat system tracks active presence in real time  
- Passive playback and bot-like behavior are detected and penalized  

---

### 2. Prove Understanding  
**AI Semantic Grading**

- Users respond to randomized, offchain prompts  
- AI agents evaluates answers for **technical depth and contextual accuracy**  
- Copy-paste, low-effort, and AI-generated spam are rejected and penalized  

---

### 3. Prove Action  
**Onchain Execution Verification**

- Direct connection to RPC nodes  
- Users must execute required smart contract actions (e.g., bridging, staking)  
- Rewards distributed only upon verified execution  

---

**Result:**  
A fully verifiable acquisition funnel where protocols pay only for **real users who understand and use their product.**

---

## Market & Differentiation

**Target Market:** $1.2B Web3 education and quest market  

Recent trends like InfoFi proved one thing clearly:  
**Attention has value. But attention alone is easily gamed.**

InfoFi ultimately failed due to:

- AI-generated content spam  
- Advanced botting systems  
- Lack of true comprehension filtering  

**NexID evolves this model by pricing *understanding*, not just attention.**

By combining AI agents with strict verification layers, we:

- Eliminate low-quality participation  
- Maintain high signal-to-noise ratios  
- Achieve ~85% gross margins through automation  

---

## Q2 Catalyst: Live Video Agents

NexID is evolving from static education into **real-time, AI-driven interaction.**

In Q2, we launch **bidirectional video agents**:

- Users engage in live conversations with video agents  
- Real-time questioning, feedback, and adaptive difficulty  
- Dynamic assessment of knowledge and intent  

This unlocks entirely new capabilities:

- Technical simulations and role-playing environments  
- Automated onboarding and product walkthroughs  
- AI-powered KYC and human verification  

**This transforms NexID from a campaign tool into a programmable human verification layer.**

---

## Go-To-Market

- Direct B2B sales to protocols  
- Campaign-based pricing model:

  - $3,500 for 1-week sprint  
  - $8,500 for 1-month deep dive  

- Revenue flows directly into the DAO treasury (USDC)

We are currently in discussions with multiple protocols for initial pilot campaigns.

---

## Financial Model

- Proprietary render engine eliminates reliance on expensive enterprise APIs  
- High automation leading to ~85% gross margins  

**Breakeven:**  
Achieved at just **2 campaigns per month**

**Year 1 Target:**  
10 campaigns/month: ~$420k ARR  

Clear path to scaling through campaign volume and self-serve tooling.

---

## Use of Funds ($50K Raise)

This raise guarantees uninterrupted execution through initial pilots and revenue generation.

### Allocation

- **Initial Liquidity (20%)** — $10,000  
  - Permanently locked for Futarchy prediction market liquidity  

- **Operational Runway (80%)** — $40,000  
  - 8-month runway at $5,000/month  

### Monthly Burn

- Team (2 founders): $1,500  
- Marketing & BD: $1,500  
- Infrastructure (compute, APIs, gas): $1,000  
- Video agent licensing: $1,000  

**PS: Team fund for month 1 ($1,500) is beng added to month 1 video license cost to secure license for a quarter (3 months)**  
*Runway extends as B2B revenue begins compounding.*

---

## Roadmap & Milestones

**Month 1: Foundation (Completed)**  
- Core platform deployed  
- Watch-time verification live  
- Smart contracts deployed  

**Month 3: Pilot Execution**  
- Launch and settle first 3 Tier-1 campaigns  
- Validate unit economics onchain  

**Month 6: Breakeven Scaling**  
- Sustain 2–4 campaigns/month  
- Treasury inflows exceed burn  

**Month 12: Ecosystem Standard**  
- 10+ campaigns/month  
- Launch self-serve campaign engine  

**PS: We will continue to ship as fast as we can. Iterate and then scale.**  
---

## Long-Term Vision

NexID becomes the **standard layer for proving human understanding onchain.**

Beyond user acquisition, this powers:

- Onchain reputation systems  
- Governance participation filtering  
- Identity and Sybil resistance  
- Credentialing and skill verification  

**In a world of AI-generated noise, NexID defines what it means to be a verified human participant in Web3.**
