What Is Sahara AI?

Sahara AI is building a decentralized infrastructure for AI development, where users can:

• Create, share, and monetize AI models, datasets, and agents
• Use a decentralized marketplace for AI assets
• Rely on on-chain storage and licensing for provenance and ownership
• Access SDKs and no-code tools to build without technical expertise

The platform positions itself as an alternative to centralized Web2 AI giants, focusing on transparency, fair compensation, and data sovereignty.

Strong Backing, But User-First Sale

Despite its community-first approach, Sahara AI has backing from major venture firms. It previously raised $51.5 million across multiple rounds:

• Seed Round: $6M (March 2024)
• Series A: $37M (August 2024), led by Polychain, Pantera, and YZi Labs (ex-Binance Labs)
• Public Sale: $8.5M via Buidlpad

Other notable investors include Microsoft, Amazon, and Samsung Next.

Testnet & Airdrop Hints

Sahara recently launched its SIWA public testnet, and users participating in early activities like the Sahara Legends NFT campaign may qualify for future airdrops. However, no airdrop is tied to this token sale.
