Pundi AI is integrated with MWX, creating the first-ever decentralized AI marketplace for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). This unprecedented collaboration will help connect the business world’s traditional ways of operating with the developing decentralized artificial intelligence (AI).
Leveraging the reliability of Pundi AI’s verifiable data infrastructure, this joint effort will enable the creation of on-chain products of value from previously unused or lost collected business information silos. This generates valuable business-derived insights that can be used as a resource for OpenAI.
Strengthen the backbone of the global economy
More than 90% of the world’s businesses are classified as small and medium-sized enterprises. However, high implementation costs and limited skills availability make the adoption of advanced AI technologies by these organizations a near-impossible challenge. As a result, MWX was created specifically for this underserved sector. It is supported by the Indonesian government’s Ministry of Small and Medium Enterprise Industry and major technology companies such as Google and Amazon Web Services.
By forming this partnership, MWX has created an extensive network of over 20 pre-configured AI applications available on the market that can be integrated with Pundi AI’s distributed data network. This enables small businesses to use AI across marketing, operations, and finance while securely monetizing their data through verifiable processes.
Verifiable data – solving the AI provenance crisis
A significant limitation in today’s AI progress stems from AI’s dependence on unverified/stable data that creates “hallucinations.” Instead, Pundi AI provides a “verifiable data infrastructure” that counters this limitation. This ecosystem allows users to upload their own data, where it is verified, formatted, and then stored on-chain.
The plan is to train AI models using real, community-curated data with an auditable trail for use as a “layer of truth” by AI agents, enabling a more transparent and accountable digital economy. Data integrity will become an imperative across industries, as Pundi AI recently partnered with InitVerse to eliminate all centralized dependencies in data pipelines.
Expanding the on-chain AI economy
This collaboration represents a larger onboarding initiative rather than a simple technology integration. The initial goal of the partnership is to attract and onboard 100,000 SMEs in Indonesia alone. This partnership provides key impetus for both the “Tag-to-Earn” and “Data-to-Earn” models. As small businesses move on-chain, they move from passive bystanders to active roles in AI as they take ownership of the data and AI intelligence they helped create.
According to data collected by Stanford University, the use of AI in the business sector has increased by 55% within the past 12 months. The need for decentralized options is clear. If these are not developed soon, centralized “Big Tech” companies will continue to monopolize the profits of this technology industry.
conclusion
This partnership is a major milestone towards realizing a truly decentralized and inclusive digital economy. The companies also offer tools that allow 400 million small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) to use them to link to, validate, and monetize their on-chain data. This will help develop AI that can be used by anyone, anywhere in the future. And as these datasets evolve into the foundation of future AI agents, the lines between physical business and blockchain will continue to blur.
