In the early morning of May 2nd, Beijing time, Fleek, an AI agent and virtual influence platform, will officially launch the $FLK token sale on CoinList.
Fleek is known as the "Shopify of AI" and is committed to enabling developers, creators and brands to quickly build, deploy and monetize their own AI agents and virtual influencers without the need for complex infrastructure. So far, Fleek has received support from Eliza (formerly ai16z) and Venice AI, becoming a new force in the field of Agentic AI.
What core problems does Fleek solve?
AI agent applications are currently emerging at an astonishing rate. However, in the actual implementation process, developers still face challenges such as complex deployment operations, security and privacy risks, high costs, and insufficient scalability.
Specifically, although traditional mainstream cloud service providers such as AWS, GCP, and Azure provide a wealth of infrastructure components, they lack integrated solutions for AI agent scenarios. Developers have to build and maintain server clusters, configure networks and security groups, and orchestrate containers and load balancing from scratch. The entire process is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and it can take hours or even days to complete a launch.
On the other hand, AI agents often need to process large amounts of sensitive data and complex models during operation, and traditional cloud environments lack built-in trusted execution capabilities (TEEs), making it difficult to fundamentally prevent data leaks or malicious attacks, thus posing risks to scenarios such as finance and healthcare that have extremely high requirements for privacy compliance.
In addition, for developers and enterprises, the continuous reasoning and state management of AI agents consumes a lot of computing power. The cost of on-demand cloud resources soars during peak traffic, while the resources are idle during idle periods, resulting in a low overall input-output ratio. In the face of the needs of multi-agent concurrent and global access, conventional infrastructure also faces challenges in scalability and low latency assurance, and often requires additional operation and tuning to barely meet performance requirements.
To address the above challenges, Fleek has created a platform specifically built for the deployment, management and monetization of AI agents and virtual influencers, unifying LLM access, hosting deployment, MCP, TEE, agent function management and monetization tools into a seamless experience and market. Fleek AI hosting solutions based on the Eliza framework, combined with Fleek Machines and the Fleek platform's own deployment capabilities, provide developers with a complete solution that integrates infrastructure and development experience.
One-stop AI agent service platform
In the past, deploying AI agents required professional developers and complex security settings and ongoing infrastructure management. Transforming AI agent deployment into a simple process eliminates the complexity of DevOps. The platform supports three deployment methods, including directly uploading JSON role files, filling in agent configurations through forms, or using preset templates. The entire process can be completed within 30 seconds without additional infrastructure configuration or scripting.
In terms of security and privacy, Fleek uses TEE (Trusted Execution Environment) in Fleek Machines to ensure the autonomy, verifiability, security and privacy of AI agents. Fleek Machines is a lightweight TEE VM with Docker support that provides builders with a seamless way to leverage long-running (TEE) to implement verifiable and/or confidential computing use cases. By using remote attestation and reproducible builds, anyone can verify the authenticity of the agent and the code running in the TEE, as well as verify the privacy of all sensitive data, thereby creating a secure environment for the operation of AI agents and user interaction with agents.
In addition, Fleek Machines supports running any application that can run in Docker, and can seamlessly integrate all Web2 and Web3 frameworks, languages and protocols. Compared with traditional TEE services, Fleek provides higher performance and lower cost infrastructure, shortens product time to market, and significantly reduces development and operation expenses. Developers can flexibly choose proxy running nodes according to business needs, and when access traffic increases suddenly, the platform automatically completes capacity expansion within seconds without any manual intervention, to achieve a one-stop hosting experience with edge optimization and global distribution.
$FLK Token Economics
$FLK token is the backbone of Fleek ecosystem, targeting developers, creators, consumers, brands, node operators, and even AI agents and virtual influencers themselves. Its design goal is to achieve deep binding between ecosystem participants and platform value through token incentives and rights distribution.
The total supply of $FLK is 100 million, and the FDV valuation is $75 million. The public sale on CoinList this time is 667,000, accounting for 6.67%, fully unlocked, with no lock-up or vesting period. Compared with private round investors, this public sale offers a lower price and 100% unlocking treatment to reflect the community-first concept and ensure that early builders and users get the maximum profit space.
In terms of actual utility, the main uses of $FLK tokens include:
- Platform access and equity: Staking to obtain Fleek platform credits and access to advanced features. In addition, you can also become an operator through staking, run Fleek infrastructure and earn network rewards.
- Market and creator incentives: In the Fleek ecosystem, token holders can get priority display and revenue sharing bonuses for AI agents and virtual influencers. Fleek also incentivizes the community to create high-quality agents and influencers through $FLK token rewards, accelerating the prosperity of the ecosystem.
- Brands & Marketing: Brands and companies can use $FLK to unlock exclusive marketing tools, including advanced features to amplify social, influencer marketing, and user-generated content (UGC) campaigns.
- Destruction mechanism: A portion of the platform revenue is used to repurchase and destroy $FLK through the destruction mechanism, creating a deflationary effect.
