Humans.ai (humans.ai) is a Bucharest-based company founded in 2015 that operates an all-in-one blockchain platform where artificial intelligence and human identity intersect. The platform is built around the concept of a 'Digital Genome': a personalized, NFT-backed digital likeness that users own and can license for use in synthetic media productions, earning royalties whenever their genome is used. The core product is Humans Studio, a creative suite that lets individuals and businesses combine a library of AI models (covering capabilities such as text-to-voice, sentiment analysis, and generative media) to build and deploy what the platform calls 'Apps'. These Apps are composable AI pipelines whose revenue is shared proportionally among the AI components and genome contributors involved, enforced automatically via smart contracts. Governance and payments across the ecosystem run on the HEART token (total supply 7.8 billion). HEART is used to pay for all platform fees and grants holders voting rights over protocol upgrades and development decisions. The company conducted an ICO round in December 2021, which remains its last recorded funding event as of 2026. Humans.ai also introduced 'Proof-of-Human', a blockchain validation mechanism that uses biometric data to authenticate NFT ownership, aiming to ensure provenance and prevent fraud in AI-generated content. The platform is positioned primarily at creators, enterprises wanting to produce synthetic media at scale, and Web3 participants interested in AI rights and royalty infrastructure. As of mid-2026 the HEART token trades at a very low price (approximately $0.0008-$0.0009 USD), reflecting thin liquidity. The company has approximately 19 employees and continues to operate, though it has not announced major new funding since its 2021 ICO. It is a distinct entity from 'Humans&', a separate 2025-founded US AI lab that raised $480M. Key features: - Digital Genome: NFT-backed personal digital likeness with creator-controlled licensing - Humans Studio: no-code creative suite combining multiple AI models into reusable 'Apps' - HEART token: dual-purpose currency for platform fees and governance voting - Proof-of-Human: biometric-backed blockchain validation mechanism for NFT provenance - Automated royalty distribution via smart contracts to genome and AI contributors - Decentralized data validation for fair and auditable AI training inputs - App marketplace where composed AI pipelines can be deployed and monetized at scale
