> Minds by Animoca Brands are agentic, persistent AI agents that start with a message on Telegram or email — no app, no setup, no technical knowledge required. It remembers your context, grows with you over time, and can connect across teams and people to get things done together. From tracing a family history to launching an Etsy store to planning a friend's next show, it handles the tasks that usually live across multiple apps — automatically selecting the right tools and skills for the job.
>
> Unlike every tool you've used before, it never resets. Context compounds across every session, every task, every interaction — the longer it runs, the more useful it gets, and the more it becomes yours. As your needs grow, your Mind grows with you — expanding into a coordinated swarm of specialised agents that can negotiate, build, and execute on your behalf. Personal. Persistent. Portable.

## What Minds Stands For
Minds by Animoca Brands are agentic, persistent AI agents that start with a message on Telegram or email — no app, no setup, no technical knowledge required. It remembers your context, grows with you over time, and can connect across teams and people to get things done together. From tracing a family history to launching an Etsy store to planning a friend's next show, it handles the tasks that usually live across multiple apps — automatically selecting the right tools and skills for the job.

Unlike every tool you've used before, it never resets. Context compounds across every session, every task, every interaction — the longer it runs, the more useful it gets, and the more it becomes yours. As your needs grow, your Mind grows with you — expanding into a coordinated swarm of specialised agents that can negotiate, build, and execute on your behalf. Personal. Persistent. Portable.

## How It Works
Minds is operational in three steps:
1. **Sign up with email** — No wallets, no code, no app installation. A user is live in seconds.
2. **Tell your Mind what to do** — During onboarding, the user names the Mind, selects a personality (Concise, Encouraging, Analytical, Conversational, or Custom), and describes the outcome they want.
3. **Start chatting** — The user interacts with their Mind 24/7 via email or Telegram. Each Mind sends a greeting message after creation, and conversations begin from the first reply.

A guided "Concierge" Mind walks first-time users through their initial setup.

## Core Capabilities
- **Persistent memory** — Each Mind retains context across sessions, tasks, and interactions, compounding knowledge over time rather than resetting per conversation.
- **Verified identity** — Every Mind has a unique, blockchain-backed identity that cannot be revoked by the platform; the user owns the Mind as a sovereign asset.
- **Autonomous action** — Minds execute tasks on the user's behalf: drafting messages, scheduling, researching, monitoring data sources, and connecting workflows.
- **Channel-native access** — Minds operate through email, Telegram, and X/Twitter integration on user profiles. There is no standalone app to install.
- **Tool connections** — Minds connect to Gmail, Google Calendar, Google Drive, GitHub, Duffel, Dune, Nansen, OpenRouter, and other everyday platforms. The Minds Bazaar (see below) hosts 1,500+ Skills, Tools, and Apps that extend any Mind without writing code.
- **Personality customisation** — Mind tone is configurable at setup (Concise, Encouraging, Analytical, Conversational, Custom) and refinable thereafter.
- **Multi-device** — A single Mind is accessible across any device the user is signed into.

## The Minds Bazaar
The Minds Bazaar is the marketplace where builders publish capabilities that any Mind can equip. It is organised into three content types:

- **Skills (1,067 as of 2026-04-29)** — User-facing capabilities a Mind can perform on behalf of the user.
- **Tools (257 as of 2026-04-29)** — Granular operations that compose into Skills and Apps (for example, individual API endpoints).
- **Apps (245 as of 2026-04-29)** — Full integrations bundling multiple Tools under a single identity (for example, Gmail Suite v3 bundles 30 Gmail Tools).

Each Bazaar item carries one of two trust labels: **Verified** (officially reviewed by Minds) or **Wild** (community-published, unreviewed). A Leaderboard surfaces the most-equipped Apps, Skills, and Tools.

**How equipping works:** A user equips their Mind with a Bazaar item by copying a generated activation message and pasting it to their Mind via Telegram or Email. The Mind automatically equips the capability — no developer environment, package install, or technical setup required.

Notable Apps published in the Bazaar include Gmail Suite v3, Google Calendar, Google Drive Suite v2, Google Docs Suite v2, Google Sheets Suite, Composio (meta-app connecting 800+ external tools via OAuth 2.0), Brave Search API, Amadeus Travel, FLIGHTS (Duffel-powered flight discovery), Birdeye Base and Birdeye Solana (DeFi intelligence), DexScreener (DEX data), Clawk (X/Twitter for AI agents), Agent_Gateway, evm_rpc_suite (Ethereum JSON-RPC), EVM Contract Fetcher, Agentic_Genealogy_Research, GLEIF Corporate Discovery, and browser_interaction_pro (Playwright-powered automation).

## Minds Fund
Minds is accepting applications for the first Minds Fund cohort. **Cohort 1 kicks off July 2026**; applications are reviewed on a rolling basis.

Each cohort selects **8–15 teams** to build alongside the Animoca Minds product team. Selection into the cohort is **not a guarantee of investment** — every cohort team gets platform access, Cognition Credits, and DevRel support, but funding is decided during the build period by the Animoca Minds investment committee on a performance basis.

Teams that successfully pitch and are approved by the investment committee receive **up to US$250,000 per successful team**, structured as a bundle of cash investment and Cognition Credits. Check sizes vary by team and stage — think Shark Tank, not winner-takes-all: different businesses receive different sized investments based on what they've built and where they're going.

Independent of the Minds Fund, any builder can publish skills, apps, and tools to the Minds Bazaar and earn from user adoption.

## Parent Company and Origin
