Apello is a comprehensive and essential toolkit for Cosmos NFT creators simplifying NFT project management across nine major Cosmos chains and newly supported EVM chains. With over 700 active projects and a user base exceeding 37000 Apello has become the primary NFT management solution in the Cosmos space enabling projects to scale and engage their communities effectively. This grant would enable Apello to introduce AIdriven support features equipping users with instant smart access to resources like articles tutorials and debugging tools. By collaborating with the Atom team we plan to make these capabilities accessible via API enriching Cosmos web applications with streamlined AIpowered support. Additionally targeted UI/UX enhancements will improve ease of use and reinforce Apellos role as an accessible communityfocused opensource platform. With a mission to support and expand the Cosmos NFT ecosystem Apellos free opensource tools make it easier than ever for Cosmos creators to grow and manage their projects making this proposal a valuable addition to the Cosmos Hubs grant initiatives.
If awarded this grant will enable Apello to Integrate AIPowered Smart Support Develop and deploy an AIdriven bot within Apello to provide Cosmos NFT creators and users with instant access to information articles tutorials and code debugging assistance. This feature will enhance user support by delivering contextually relevant information ondemand. Expand Cosmos Ecosystem Resources Collaborate with the Atom team to create an open API that can be utilized by Cosmos web apps allowing Apellos AIpowered support to extend across multiple platforms and provide a cohesive user experience throughout the Cosmos ecosystem. Enhance User Interface and User Experience Implement significant UI/UX improvements to ensure Apello remains intuitive accessible and efficient for a growing user base. This will include optimized navigation and userfriendly interfaces tailored for NFT project managers. Increase Adoption and Engagement in the Cosmos NFT Space With the integration of these new features we aim to strengthen Apellos position as a goto toolkit in the Cosmos NFT space driving further adoption among both existing Cosmos chains and new projects looking to build within the Cosmos ecosystem.
Apellos integration of AIpowered support and openaccess tooling directly contributes to the value and utility of the Cosmos Hub and ATOM in the following ways Increasing ATOM Ecosystem Adoption By enhancing Apello with intelligent support and improved UI/UX we will attract new NFT projects and creators to the Cosmos ecosystem. With more than 700 active projects and over 37000 users Apellos growth trajectory suggests that the expanded capabilities could increase user adoption by at least 25% within the first year. This means hundreds of new projects could onboard bringing increased transactions and activity across Cosmos chains driving demand for ATOM. Strengthening Community Engagement With AIdriven smart support available across Cosmos web applications via API integration the overall user experience within the Cosmos ecosystem will become more cohesive and accessible. By improving support and reducing friction for users and developers we expect a significant increase in user retention across Cosmos chainstargeting a 20% rise in engagement within existing projects. Enhancing ATOMs Position as the Core of Cosmos Apellos API collaboration with the Atom team will ensure ATOM plays a central role in a seamless AIsupported ecosystem positioning it as essential infrastructure within Cosmos. By driving more NFT projects and creators toward Cosmos Apello not only boosts Cosmos Hub visibility but also reinforces ATOM as a critical asset within the Cosmos ecosystems NFT and DeFi spaces. Expanding Cosmos Hubs Economic Activity By providing Cosmos NFT creators with robust AIpowered tools free of charge Apello lowers entry barriers encouraging diverse projects and communities to develop within Cosmos rather than on competing blockchains. We project that this increased adoption could result in a 30% rise in overall economic activity on the Cosmos Hub within the first year of AI integration benefiting ATOM through increased staking transaction volume and crosschain activity. In summary Apellos expansion will drive measurable growth in user adoption retention and activity within Cosmos aligning closely with Atom Accelerator DAOs mission to enhance the Cosmos Hub and increase the value of ATOM through widespread accessible utility and engagement.
