Kaito launches Pulse, a social layer on X designed to surface user activity around building, trading, and backing projects.
Tech & Launches ·
Kaito has launched Pulse, a social layer built on X that aims to surface activity around building, trading, and backing projects beyond traditional timeline feeds. The product represents the latest evolution of Kaito's platform, an AI-driven attention-finance system that treats social influence and engagement as tradable assets using tokenomics, NFTs, and market mechanisms.
The move comes as Kaito navigates a shifting landscape for social-crypto products. The broader "InfoFi" sector faced disruption after X restricted API access for reward-based posting platforms, forcing firms like Kaito to pivot away from incentivized leaderboards and toward alternative models. Kaito has been transitioning existing products—sunsetting its Yaps feature and shifting creator offerings to a tier-based Studio platform focused on analytics and cross-platform reach.
Pulse's specific mechanics—how it will rank or filter activities, whether it incorporates prediction markets, or how it ties to Kaito's KAITO token—remain unclear from available announcements. The timing and scope of rollout beyond X have not been detailed.
