ActionModel is a decentralized artificial intelligence project that aims to develop a community-owned Large Action Model (LAM). The platform is designed to execute digital tasks by interacting with graphical user interfaces (GUIs), with the goal of compensating users who contribute training data through a browser extension. [2]
ActionModel is being developed as a decentralized alternative to centralized AI systems controlled by large technology corporations. The project's foundational concept is that individuals who provide the data used to train an AI models should have a share in the value that the model creates. The system is designed to learn how to perform computer-based tasks by observing user interactions, which are collected via a browser extension. This approach allows the model to automate tasks across various websites and applications without requiring access to their Application Programming Interfaces (APIs).
The project's long-term vision is to create an "automation layer of the internet" that is owned and governed by its community of contributors and users. This model of collective ownership is facilitated through the platform's native token, $LAM. The token is intended to serve as both a utility instrument for accessing services within the ecosystem and as a governance tool, allowing holders to participate in key decisions regarding the platform's development and future direction. The ecosystem is structured to create a cycle where user data contributions improve the AI, which in turn enables more powerful automation tools that can be utilized by the community.
The ActionModel ecosystem is built around two core products designed for data contribution and task automation.
The ActionModel Browser Extension serves as the primary tool for data collection within the ActionModel ecosystem. Operating in the background of a user’s web browser, it captures anonymized interaction data used to train the Large Action Model (LAM). The extension includes two modes of data contribution: Passive Training, which automatically collects browsing interaction data to build a broad dataset, and Active Training, which allows users to intentionally record specific workflows or tasks to generate higher-quality, labeled data for complex, multi-step processes. Participants receive tokens for their contributions, reflecting a community-driven approach to AI training. The extension incorporates privacy protections, giving users control over shared information while excluding sensitive data, and is designed for simple installation and background operation. [2] [1]
Actionist is ActionModel’s flagship desktop application designed to automate computer-based tasks without requiring coding knowledge. It operates by controlling the user’s mouse, keyboard, and screen, allowing it to perform digital activities similar to a human user. The platform enables the creation of AI agents that execute workflows on schedules, supported by memory, history tracking, and integration with external tools. [10]
The technical architecture of ActionModel is based on two proprietary concepts that govern how the AI learns and executes tasks.
The Action Loop is the fundamental, cyclical process that the LAM uses to perform any given task. This process consists of four distinct steps that repeat until the final goal is achieved:
The Action Tree is a conceptual framework representing a comprehensive map of all possible user actions and workflows across the digital landscape of websites and applications. This "map" is constructed and continuously expanded through the data collected from user contributions, which are referred to as "Action Branches." Each contribution adds a new path or refines an existing one within the tree. As more users contribute data from a diverse range of applications, the Action Tree grows larger and more detailed, which in turn enables the LAM to navigate and execute an increasingly wide variety of complex tasks with greater precision and reliability. [12] [13]
The native utility and governance token for the ActionModel ecosystem is designated as $LAM. The token is designed to be integral to the platform's economic model, value distribution, and decentralized governance structure.
The project's goal is to implement a decentralized governance model where holders of the $LAM token can actively participate in the decision-making process. This structure is intended to give the community of users and data contributors direct influence over the future direction of the ActionModel platform, including protocol upgrades and feature development.
