Integration AnnouncementOpenPad AI x Monad Foundation

We are excited to announce the integration between Monad Foundation

We are excited to announce the integration between Monad Foundation, the organization driving the growth of the high-performance, EVM-compatible Monad Layer 1 blockchain, and OpenPad AI, the first AI-powered decentralized investment platform.

This integration is set to accelerate the development of AI-native Web3 applications by combining Monad’s scalable blockchain infrastructure with OpenPad’s intelligent launchpad ecosystem - offering developers, users, and investors a more efficient and powerful platform for on-chain innovation.

I. About Monad Foundation

The Monad Foundation plays a pivotal role in expanding and decentralizing the Monad ecosystem. While Category Labs leads protocol engineering and innovation, the Foundation focuses on nurturing community growth, onboarding validators, supporting builders, and laying the groundwork for decentralized governance.

By championing an open, performant, and community-driven ecosystem, the Monad Foundation empowers developers to build the next generation of decentralized applications without compromise.

Key Features of Monad:

• EVM Compatibility with High Performance: Monad executes Ethereum-native smart contracts with full compatibility while achieving much higher throughput and efficiency, allowing seamless migration for Ethereum-based dApps.

• Parallel Execution Engine: Unlike traditional sequential blockchains, Monad processes transactions in parallel - enabling up to 10,000 transactions per second (TPS) and setting a new standard for blockchain scalability.

• Low Latency and Fast Finality: With 1-second block times and rapid finality, Monad significantly improves the responsiveness of Web3 applications, which is essential for real-time user experiences.

• Decentralized Governance and Validator Support: The Foundation is actively working toward a robust governance system and validator ecosystem, empowering stakeholders to propose and vote on protocol upgrades and ecosystem decisions.

• Scalability for High-Performance Use Cases: Whether for AI-powered dApps, real-time DeFi protocols, or immersive Web3 gaming platforms, Monad offers the infrastructure required for advanced, data-intensive applications.

With this integration, OpenPad AI becomes one of the first AI-native platforms to harness Monad’s parallel execution and scalable infrastructure - marking a significant step forward in enabling high-performance, AI-driven blockchain innovation.

II. Technical Deployment & Benefits of the Integration

As part of this integration, OpenPad AI will begin operating on the Monad blockchain to fully leverage its technical advantages. This deployment brings a range of benefits to developers, investors, and the broader Web3 community:

• Seamless Compatibility: Projects deployed on Monad can be launched directly on OpenPad AI thanks to full EVM compatibility - accelerating go-to-market timelines and broadening accessibility for builders.

• Enhanced AI Processing and Real-Time Investment Insights: Monad’s ultra-fast transaction speeds and parallel processing allow OpenPad’s AI models to analyze real-time data more effectively, improving predictions, user profiling, and intelligent investment scoring.

• Lower Transaction Costs and Enhanced User Experience: By leveraging Monad’s high-throughput architecture and low-fee environment, OpenPad users will benefit from drastically reduced gas costs and near-instant transaction finality, delivering a faster, more seamless experience during project launches and platform interactions.

• Ecosystem Growth Through Collaborative Innovation: This integration opens the door to meaningful co-initiatives, including joint ecosystem campaigns and developer activations. By aligning the strengths of Monad’s infrastructure with OpenPad’s AI-powered platform, we’re fostering a vibrant environment where developers, creators, and investors can co-create the future of blockchain innovation.

This integration is more than just technical compatibility - it’s a step toward redefining how scalable infrastructure and intelligent investment tools can come together to shape the next era of Web3. We invite all projects building on Monad Foundation to explore the powerful benefits of launching with OpenPad AI. From AI-enhanced fundraising tools to intelligent community targeting and multi-chain deployment strategies, OpenPad provides a robust launchpad tailored for builders who want to scale fast and smart.

Together, Monad Foundation and OpenPad AI are setting the foundation for a smarter, faster, and more decentralized future.Stay tuned for more updates, ecosystem activations, and developer-focused initiatives coming soon.
