ASI - Pulse Series🗞️- July 9 to Aug 4, 2025

Welcome back to ASI – Pulse, your ongoing check-in with the momentum, milestones, and market signals coming out of the Artificial Superintelligence Alliance. This edition covers the stretch from July 9 to August 4, and the signal is strong: the Alliance is scaling operationally, technically, and publicly!


📣 News of the Month:David Taylor Appointed as ASI Chief Marketing Officer

Article content

The ASI Alliance is growing fast and sharpening focus. On July 18, marketing veteran David Taylor officially joined as Chief Marketing Officer, bringing decades of executional depth as CMO of the Cardano Foundation, and a clear mandate: clean up the noise, scale what works.

His early message to the community and internal teams has been unambiguous:

“In AI and Web3, we’ve had enough “promising.” Now it’s time to deliver.

Rather than simply ramping up volume, Taylor is dialing in consistency, refining the Alliance’s core narrative, content systems, and distribution model to support long-term adoption and ecosystem clarity. Whether it’s product releases, feature updates, partner news, or community milestones, ASI comms will now carry the same signal across every surface.

🔗 Appointment Announcement 🔗 On execution over promises 🔗 On rebuilding ASI marketing 🔗 On content strategy and consistency

This marks a clear inflection point for the Alliance: global perception, partner engagement, and ecosystem storytelling are about to level up, and we are very excited to have him here!


✨ ASI Ecosystem Highlights

On July 26, the ASI Alliance introduced its newest foundational component: ASI Chain.

The announcement confirms what many have anticipated: a sovereign, purpose-built chain that will serve as the coordination layer for intelligence, data, compute, and reputation across the ASI ecosystem is coming!

As explained in the official post, ASI Chain is being developed to:

  • Unify infrastructure across partner networks
  • Facilitate agent coordination and verifiable execution
  • Support a decentralized economy of AI services

While technical details have yet to be shared, the positioning is clear: ASI Chain will become the substrate where value, proof, and permission converge, enabling scalable, cross-platform collaboration between agents and ecosystems.

More information is expected soon as the rollout advances and we get closer to testnet. Stay tuned! Keep on Building!

Following the organizational momentum and protocol-level updates, ASI builders kept the pace high. The past few weeks have seen major progress on all fronts: technical rollouts, agent launches, and developer engagement.

This rapid growth isn’t happening in isolation. On July 19, Fetch.ai issued a direct call for developer feedback on supported Python packages within the Agentverse. The goal is to ensure that the platform evolves with its builders, not just for them. If you’re an AI builder on the Agentverse, feel free to chime in! 🔗 Share your input

Meet Our New Agents

The Agentverse is scaling fast, with the live agent count now approaching 3 million. The steady growth in agent count reflects more than scale. Each new agent brings practical utility that strengthens how people interact with decentralized AI in everyday contexts.

Here are some of the newest Agentic additions to the ASI:One family by Fetch.ai , each showing a new way to support day-to-day life, research, or operations.

🧠 July 11 – Coding Agent by @crewAIInc A multi-functional coding assistant capable of generating code, explaining snippets, debugging, and optimizing logic, all through natural language. This agent shortens the feedback loop for developers and learners alike. Instead of switching tools or tabs, users can iterate, correct, and understand code in one place. It's a stepping stone toward agentic pair programming and smarter dev environments.

🛠️ ASI:One Product Updates Progress on the ASI:One interface continues, with a steady rollout of refinements aimed at making the platform more functional and familiar for everyday users.

On mobile, dark mode has officially landed. A very welcomed improvement for anyone spending long hours exploring or building agents from their phone, or simply willing to chat with ASI:One during bedtime.

🔗 Dark mode update

On desktop, location-based access controls are now live. This feature gives users more granular control over which agents can access their device’s location - essential for applications that rely on geo-context, such as travel, mobility, or local market agents, but also critical if you care about controlling how your location data is used in your day-to-day life.

🔗 Location update post 🔗 Try it on ASI:One

These small but meaningful changes reflect a wider effort to bring ASI:One up to the standard users expect from modern apps, while staying true to the agentic design principles that make it unique.



🔍 Fetch.ai Highlights

While ASI:One continues to evolve, the team behind it - Fetch.ai - has been just as active across the broader AI and Web3 landscape.

Jul 11 – Fetch.ai joins MoveID Fetch.ai announced its contribution to MoveID, a major European mobility initiative led by Bosch, focused on secure identity and data-sharing for the future of connected vehicles. It’s a strong signal that agentic identity is being taken seriously by enterprise players. <<embedded🔗 See post >>
