Among the most persistent challenges in Web3 is proving the presence of real, engaged users. No matter how innovative a product or technology may be, it cannot succeed without a genuine user base and sustainable business model.

Enter KGeN, which is helping to solve this problem within AI, gaming, DeFi, and consumer applications. By reimagining distribution infrastructure for the digital economy, KGeN is building a verified distribution protocol called “VeriFi.” In doing so, KGeN aims to empower users to own their digital identities and reputation while enabling a more transparent and verifiable ecosystem for businesses to grow, entirely built on Aptos.

Transforming Digital Distribution with Verified Users

At the heart of KGeN is its VeriFi Network powered by the Proof of Gamer Engine (POGE)—a privacy-preserving identity and reputation framework that verifies real users and captures their engagement on-chain.

To date, KGeN reports more than 876 million data points processed, enabling services such as biometric-based onboarding, programmable loyalty rewards and decentralized storefronts through its K-Store.

With 38.9 million registered users and nearly 800,000 daily actives, KGeN has become one of the most widely adopted networks in Web3. This growth is reflected across its partner ecosystem which spans 200+ organizations and contributes to more than $48 million in annualized revenue.

Products Powering VeriFi

Designed for composability and trust, KGeN’s product suite allows builders to unlock verified growth strategies across gaming, AI, DeFi and consumer apps.

Through Engage, KGeN supports privacy-preserving user acquisition and AI training mechanisms, helping teams onboard real users while enhancing model performance with verified data.

If it's not VeriFi, it's just noise. You’ve heard us break down VDP. Now it’s time to see how KGeN keeps CAC lower while scaling, and what makes us truly effective.💪

Meanwhile, its Loyalty Protocol introduces programmable, composable rewards that allow applications to design on-chain incentives tailored to verified engagement. This creates new ways to retain and grow communities with transparency and trust.

KGeN also offers the K-Store, a decentralized storefront designed to bring fairness to digital distribution by connecting verified users with applications in a trusted environment.

Underpinning all of these services is KGeN’s Proof of Gamer Engine (POGE) which validates user engagement and reputation while preserving privacy, serving as the foundation for KGeN’s VeriFi Network.
