Konnex is a decentralized robotics platform that enables robots (such as drones, robotic arms, mobile robots, etc.) to operate as independent "economic agents": sign contracts with each other to collaborate on tasks, license competitive AI models on demand, automatically settle payments using stablecoins, and ensure task completion through verifiable proof. On January 15, Konnex announced it had secured $15 million in funding from strategic partners.
On April 24, Konnex announced on the X platform that its testnet is now live.
