ai.com Bets Big on Autonomous AI Agents With a $70M Domain Play

ai.com, launched by Crypto.com co-founder Kris Marszalek, offers a consumer AI agent platform that creates autonomous agents in about 60 seconds, capable of acting on users’ behalf (e.g., trading, scheduling, messaging) within a secure, encrypted environment. The ai.com domain was reportedly bought for around $70 million in digital assets, and a high-profile Super Bowl ad signals a mass-market push. The service aims for a decentralized network of self-improving agents shared across millions of users, but will face regulatory, privacy, and trust hurdles before mainstream adoption.
