Olas Launches Pearl v1, the First 'AI Agent App Store'
Olas launched Pearl v1, a decentralized AI agent app store enabling users to own and control autonomous AI agents with on-chain verifiability.Summary
Olas has introduced Pearl v1, described as the first decentralized "AI agent app store," which aims to transition power from centralized AI providers to individual users by blending Web2 convenience with Web3 self-sovereignty. Unlike traditional platforms, Pearl ensures that every agent action is verifiable on-chain, giving users full control and transparency, even while allowing familiar sign-ins like Google or Apple. The platform is built on principles of ownership, curation, and transparency, offering agents for finance, creative, and social tasks. Olas founding member David Minarsch emphasized that this shift is necessary to prevent centralized platforms from harvesting user data, positioning Pearl as a move toward AI ownership where agents work for the user, not the corporation.
