> Create and Co-own AI Agents

Virtuals Protocol helps developers create and monetize AI agents by enabling tokenized ownership and cross-platform deployment.

Virtuals Protocol helps developers turn AI agents into revenue-generating digital assets through blockchain-based tokenization and management. Users can create, own, and deploy AI agents across various applications and games, participate in governance, and earn rewards from agent activities. The protocol runs on Base, Coinbase's Layer-2 network, facilitating efficient agent deployment and interaction.

## Products

- [Virtuals Launchpad](https://thegrid.id/profiles/virtuals): A development platform for creating, deploying, and managing AI agents that can interact through text, speech, and 3D animation across multiple applications. (AI Agent Platform, Live, Main Product)
- [G.A.M.E Framework](https://thegrid.id/profiles/virtuals): G.A.M.E LITE is an agentic framework by Virtuals Protocol that processes inputs, learns from interactions, and leverages long-term memory to enhance decision-making capabilities and enables import/export functionality for agent settings within the Virtuals ecosystem. (AI Agent Framework, Live)
- [Agent Commerce Protocol](https://thegrid.id/profiles/virtuals): Agent Commerce Protocol is a standardized framework for autonomous agent interactions, enabling secure transactions and coordination without human intervention. (AI Agent Platform, Early access)

## Assets

- [VIRTUAL (VIRTUAL)](https://thegrid.id/profiles/virtuals): VIRTUAL is the utility and governance token of Virtuals Protocol. It is used to create AI agents, pay for agent services, and vote on protocol upgrades and treasury allocations through vote-escrowed veVIRTUAL. The token functions as the base liquidity pair for all agent tokens on the platform, directly linking agent usage and trading fees to the VIRTUAL token economy. (Utility)
- [G.A.M.E (GAME)](https://thegrid.id/profiles/virtuals): GAME is a memecoin operating on the Base blockchain associated with the G.A.M.E. Framework within the Virtuals Protocol ecosystem. It is used for community participation and trading within the platform that enables developers to build autonomous AI agents. The framework provides AI agents with decision-making capabilities and long-term memory, allowing token holders to participate in an ecosystem where agents can plan actions and interact across multiple applications. (Memecoin)
