AXLE

AXLE is an AI-powered onchain assistant for Celo. Buy/sell USDC with mobile money (currently supporting GHS), send tokens, and manage your wallet through natural conversation.

Make onchain finance as easy as sending a text message or voice message — enabling anyone with a mobile money account to access stablecoins through .conversation, no crypto knowledge required.

Accessing crypto in new or emerging markets is broken. Users in regions like West Africa face multiple barriers:

1. Complex UX — Buying or sending stablecoins requires navigating exchanges, managing seed phrases, understanding gas fees, and switching between multiple apps. Most people give up before completing a single transaction.
2. Not many mobile money ↔ crypto rails — Millions of people use mobile money (e.g., MTN MoMo, Vodafone Cash) as their primary financial tool, but there's no simple way to move between mobile money and onchain assets like CUSD without intermediaries, high fees, or technical knowledge.
3. There is no platform that has proven that AI agents can transact in real world — Current AI assistants can answer questions but can't execute real financial actions.
   There's no conversational interface that lets users say "send 10 USDC to 0x..." or "buy $20 CUSD with my MoMo" and have it actually happen onchain.

AXLE is a conversational AI agent that lets users buy, sell, and send stablecoins using mobile money — through natural language chat.

Instead of navigating exchanges or understanding blockchain mechanics, users simply tell AXLE what they want in plain language:

• "Buy 50 USDC with my MTN MoMo"
• "Send 20 CUSD to 0xabc..."
• "What's my balance?"
• "Cash out 30 USDT to my Vodafone Cash"

The AI agent handles everything: initiating mobile money collections, executing onchain transactions on Celo, managing disbursements, and confirming results — all within a single chat interface.

Transaction fees on mobile money on/off-ramp. AXLE takes a small spread (1-2%) on each buy/sell between mobile money and USDC — the moment where users convert real-world money to onchain assets and back. The core chat and wallet features are free.
