The Concept

We believe an emerging trend of digitalized reality, thus making us wonder: what if we digitalize the market? How will it looks like?

We conclude a structure which we call it: Node-Exchange-Commodity.

• Node: A decentralized digital identity protocol.
• Exchange: An equivalent exchange protocol for a free market.
• Commodity: Any digitalized asset, such as data, models, and online services.

This concept inspired the creation of ZaoWork, a platform designed to digitalize online services as commodities. Through blockchain-based identity and exchange protocols, combined with AI agents for automated project collaboration, ZaoWork envisions a large-scale, self-organizing platform that fosters a P2P ecosystem.

Project Concept

Driven by AI automation and digitalization, we envision that:

• The digitalized free market's structure can be distilled to Node-Exchange-Commodity.
  • Node: A digital identity protocol.
  • Exchange: A free market consensus currency protocol.
  • Commodity: Any digitalizable value, like data and services.

In the envisioned future, digital services will dominate the market, with AI standardizing services while humans provide oversight, coordination, and creative services.

Current Focus

Currently, "ZaoWork" targets a focused vertical niche by serving as an online service-matching app that connects top service experts with clients, specializing in software development. By utilizing a distributed, collaborative approach with DAO community members, the platform aims to build systems of the same scale in half the time and at half the cost.

How it works: A Collaboration Mechanism

There will be three key players in ZaoWork platform:

• Business Analysts: Top-tier business analysts who understand requirement backgrounds, abstract business logic, and provide initial solutions
• Coordinators: Excellent project managers responsible for building teams to undertake and deliver specific solution requirements
• Domain Service Providers: Professionally skilled talents who have passed strict screening and work with coordinators to deliver requirements

We adopted the "community as the service" methodology, where we select a role called "coordinators" from our community members, who will actively connect the registered talents on the platform and match them for clients' excellent ideas and jointly create outstanding online solutions.

System Architecture

The platform aims to develop two core protocols across four layers—data, platform, domain, and application—enabling industry-standard services and a structured talent collaboration system. The system's core features a Layer2-based on-chain data layer, allowing users to retain data ownership and authorize access. Built on this data layer, the exchange system defines supply-demand relationships, with AI agents optimizing efficiency by dynamically adjusting the network during the exchange process across different system layers.

Project Status：Estimated to Launch in Decemeber, 2024
