Slide 2: Project Identity
NEXT.AI is a decentralized intelligence network protocol built on Cardano. It allows participants to complete data tasks and surveys, earn NXTP utility tokens, and upgrade their nodes on-chain to unlock referral boosts and premium dashboard earnings. It was originally developed through the Gimbalabs Piece of Pie Hackathon of 2026.

Slide 3: What the Product Does
- Who the user is:
Cardano Web3 users, data contributors, survey respondents, and node operators looking to participate in decentralized AI data indexing. - What the user can do:
Connect their Cardano browser wallet (e.g. Nami, Eternl), complete survey missions and social tasks to accumulate off-chain yield points, claim those points to mint real NXTP utility tokens on-chain, and upgrade their status to a Premium Node. - What value the user gets:
Direct on-chain monetary yields for contribution and a verified premium tier status that grants a 2x referral boost and opens high-yielding dashboard missions. - Where payment happens:
Directly on-chain. Node tier upgrades are paid via Cardano native transactions, moving 200 NXTP from the user's wallet to the NEXT.AI Treasury Address.
Slide 4: Live Demo
- Landing Page & Authenticator:
Sign in securely via Google OAuth or credentials to open your private Protocol Dossier. - Earn Yield Points:
Navigate to the Surveys or Social Tasks tab, select an active task, choose answers, and instantly earn points. - Connect Wallet:
Use the Wallet connection utility in the top navigation header to securely mount Nami or Eternl. - On-Chain Claims:
Click Claim to Wallet in the Dashboard to sign a minting transaction converting accumulated points to on-chain NXTP tokens. - Payment Gate & Premium Upgrade:
Open the Upgrade Tier modal, view your live wallet balance, and click Confirm Upgrade to transfer 200 NXTP on-chain to the treasury and verify your node status.
Slide 5: How a User Buys the Product
-
Users interact with the protocol by connecting their Cardano wallets and executing transactions directly through the Web3 DApp.
-
During the final phase of development, we streamlined the user upgrade flow to create a smooth, friction-free Web3 experience directly within the app:
-
Location: Positioned convenient and visible at the bottom-left of the primary navigation interface.
-
Trigger Mechanics: Clicking "Upgrade to Premium" instantly triggers an automated Web3 wallet integration prompt (e.g., Flint, Eternl, or Lace on Cardano).
-
Automated Transaction: The pop-up pre-fills the exact native token payment parameters required to acquire the Premium Badge, eliminating manual address copying or input errors.
-
On-Chain Verification: Once signed, the protocol mints or assigns the verified Premium Badge directly to the user profile, granting instant access to elevated platform perks and micro-earning tiers.
-
Reasons to upgrade: This grants access to the TGE Page, allowing users to convert all their accumulated, claimed XPs (Experience Points) into mainnet protocol utility tokens on the official Token Generation Event (TGE) Date.
-
The product is a digital download available on the Gumroad network.
-
The download is a zip file of an Obsidian vault with links to various resources such as the open-source license, website repository, and operational setup guides.

Week 12 — Web3 Integration & System Management Finalization
Web3 Infrastructure & Upgrade
Eternl Wallet Signing Workaround:
Refactored minting and node-tier native scripts to use slot-locked policies (type: "after") instead of signature-locked policies. This completely resolves wallet connector failures caused by missingSignatories errors when signing transactions.
On-Chain Balance verification:
Remodeled the Premium Node (Get Verified) upgrade button to read the actual connected wallet balance in real-time. The upgrade action is now fully enabled if the user has 200 NXTP in their wallet on-chain, bypassing the off-chain points constraint.
Cardano Settings Manager:
Created a ⚙️ Settings panel inside the Admin Gateway to allow dynamic network management. Administrators can change the Cardano Network (switch between Preprod Testnet and Mainnet) and update the Treasury Address directly in Firestore without code updates.
Dynamic Network Display: Configured the global top navigation header to dynamically fetch and display the active Cardano Network name (e.g. Cardano Preprod or Cardano Mainnet).
CSV Export Formatting Fix:
Rewrote the Submissions table CSV exporter. Duplicate quotes were removed and standard line endings (\r\n) were implemented, fixing the bug that merged all entries into one single wide row. Submission history now exports cleanly top-to-bottom.
Week : 9 resolves duplicate surveys issue and secures data.
Overview
This release focuses on solidifying the Admin Survey Management functionality, enforcing data security through Firestore rules, and optimizing application performance. It successfully resolves previous issues with duplicate survey listings and improves the administrative dashboard's user experience.
Firestore Security Rules:
Deployed strict role-based access control (RBAC). Only authorized administrators can create, modify, or delete surveys and read all answers. Regular users are securely restricted to reading surveys and submitting their own answers.
Admin Dashboard Upgrades:
Implemented a confirmation step (Confirm/Cancel UI) for survey deletion to prevent accidental data loss.
Added loading indicators and disabled states to the "Publish to Network" button for better feedback during submission.
Improved error handling and surfacing for failed admin operations
Resilient Authentication:
Added a fallback mechanism to signInWithRedirect in AuthContext to handle scenarios where signInWithPopup is blocked (improves mobile and production login reliability).
Bug Fixes
Survey Deduplication (Idempotency):
Refactored seedSurveys.ts to use deterministic, slug-based IDs, ensuring re-runs do not create duplicate survey entries.
Added a one-time cleanup script (cleanupDuplicateSurveys.ts) to purge any existing duplicate surveys from the database.
Implemented client-side deduplication as a fail-safe when fetching surveys.
Week-8 : NEXT Protocol Whitepaper / About Page
Introduced a fully designed, in-app Whitepaper page that documents the NEXT Protocol in detail. The page covers:

Participate → Validation → Earn XPS Credits → Token Conversion
Ecosystem Architecture — Visual flow diagram from Users through to Blockchain Settlement Layer
Core Platform Components — Detailed breakdown of all five subsystems (Dashboard, Survey Engine, AI Verification, Reward Management, Blockchain Settlement)
Comparison Table — Side-by-side:
Traditional Platforms vs NEXT Protocol
Token & Rewards Model — XPS reward flow from participation to wallet distribution
Use Cases — Market Research · AI Training Data · Community Governance · Product Development
Security & Trust — Five-layer security model

Vision — Closing statement on the fairer digital economy NEXT is building
Week 6 — Admin Gateway, Premium Auth UI & Social Tasks and Mission Logic
This release marks a major upgrade in NEXT.AI security, routing reliability, administration toolsets, and user engagement interfaces.
Admin Gateway (isAdmin):
Integration of AdminRoute protection, Firestore security rules modification advice, and the CLI elevation script (make-admin.ts).
State Synchronization: Resolution of the premature loading: false router race condition that was triggering buggy redirects to /auth on reload.
Modification of Authentication UI & Logic:
modification from signin input field of email and password to utilize google(gmail accounts)Integration of framer-motion animations, glassmorphism, reward icons (Star, Gift, Zap), and the premium SVG Google sign-in layout.
Social Tasks Missions Logic:
Reference to the implementation of the missions and social task engagement handlers.
Week 5: Transaction Stability _testAda commit _Eternl Wallet
Welcome to the Week 5 release of NEXT.AI!
This milestone transitions the application from a local prototype to a production-hardened platform,
- ensuring transaction stability on the Cardano Preprod testnet,
- absolute safety under database outages,
- a redesigned referral reward flow,
- and optimized pricing metrics.
Pre-flight ADA Balance Verification
Implemented strict balance validation requiring users to hold at least 5 ADA (Lovelace equivalent) to cover Cardano's min-UTxO native asset ledger requirement and standard transaction fees.
Optimized UTxO collection methods by explicitly consuming gathered UTxOs using .collectFrom(utxos) instead of raw input bindings, ensuring predictable on-chain transaction outcomes.
Injected user-friendly errors explaining network requirements during minting failures.
