The First AI Growth Agent

1.   What is XerpaAI and why did the team decide to start now?

XerpaAI is inspired by the Sherpa. By the summer of 2025, only about 7,600 people in history had ever reached the top of Mount Everest. Almost all of them — more than 99% — did it with the help of Sherpa guides. These guides carry the heavy loads, fix the ropes, and clear dangerous paths so climbers can focus on climbing. The number of people who made it to the top without a Sherpa is so small you could count them on your fingers.

Growing a startup is much the same. You can try to climb alone, but your chances of success drop fast. Most projects — whether they realize it or not — need their own “Sherpa” for growth. XerpaAI is the world’s first AGA: AI Growth Agent. Unlike advice-only tools, AGA climbs alongside you — automating the entire growth journey.

We started now because our team has lived through every stage of the startup journey — from scaling late-stage unicorns like WeWork, to building blockchain tools used worldwide like MetaMask, to creating and selling our own companies. Along the way, we saw the same gap again and again: emerging projects lacked a single, reliable growth engine. Today, with AI finally mature enough to power end-to-end automation, we’re filling that gap.

2.   What’s your target market and who’s your ideal client?

Our first “mountain” is Web3 — an industry full of rapid opportunities, but also steep drops if you miss your timing. After that, we plan to expand into AI, which moves at the same speed and carries similar risks. In a year, we plan to acquire and serve all three types of clients: Web3 projects, Web3 and AI hybrid, and AI projects.

Currently, our ideal clients are blockchain projects that have completed their seed round but aren’t yet listed. These teams usually have funding and a working product, but no dedicated growth engine — and in this space, you can’t afford to wait months to see results. With 10,000+ KOLs, 100,000+ Group Leaders, and 300+ verified South Korea KOLs, we can launch targeted influence growth missions for our clients immediately. Combined with Creative Labs, Growth Maximizer, and Panorama Loop, we turn what used to be slow and scattered into a fast, automated cycle.

3.   What problems does XerpaAI solve that others don’t?

Most growth platforms only solve one piece of the puzzle. Agencies might get you users, but they’re slow and expensive. Content tools can help you post, but they don’t distribute. Analytics platforms show you numbers, but not what to do next. Startups waste time juggling fragmented tools and still struggle to grow.

XerpaAI fixes this by unifying the entire journey. Our AI Growth Agent creates timely, relevant content, distributes it through a vetted KOL and Group Leaders network, and measures real influence with the Xerpa Index. It’s a full growth loop — automated, verifiable, and designed for high-speed industries like Web3 and AI.

4.   What exactly does XerpaAI do, and how does AGA work?

Think of XerpaAI as one continuous loop: Create → Distribute → Repeat. Instead of juggling different tools, agencies, and freelancers, our AI Growth Agent runs the whole process in one place.

Creative Labs keeps you from ever running out of things to say. It sharpens existing content or suggests new topics based on competitor activity, cultural moments, or market events. You’ll never face the “what do we post today?” problem again.

Growth Maximizer ensures the right people see it. In Web3, KOLs and Group Leaders are the most effective channels, but finding good ones is tricky. We vet every KOL for authenticity and real influence. In other words, they must have a proven base of ‘influential followers’ — people with real authority in Web3 — before they even join. We also handle all the back-and-forth so you skip the operational pain.

Panorama Loop closes the gap between action and insight. We don’t just track likes — we measure influence. The Xerpa Index combines verifiable engagement data to give you a score you can track over time and compare with competitors.

For example, imagine a Web3 project preparing to launch governance features. The team drops a few bullet points into Creative Labs, which instantly generates Twitter posts and a Medium explainer tuned to market mood. Growth Maximizer pushes it to verified KOLs in South Korea within hours. By day two, Panorama Loop updates the Xerpa Index with measurable traction, giving the team clear feedback to refine content and scale results. That’s how the loop compounds.

5.   Why would someone choose XerpaAI over LLM (such as ChatGPT or Grok) or other existing tools?

At its core, XerpaAI is not just an LLM interface — it’s a full AI Agent system designed for growth. Our technical architecture builds an end-to-end automated loop: from content generation to multi-platform distribution, integrated KOLs management, real-time semantic search, and feedback-driven optimization. This creates a continuously learning system that improves efficiency, content quality, and market adaptability over time.

Unlike general-purpose LLMs such as ChatGPT, which rely on static pretraining and require manual handling for cross-platform publishing and influencer coordination, XerpaAI is vertically specialized. It integrates dynamic trend analysis, intelligent decision support, and closed-loop iteration, making it particularly suited for the fast-moving demands of social media, Web3 and AI marketing, and complex content operations.

What truly sets XerpaAI apart is that these capabilities are live and market-tuned. Every cycle — content creation, targeted distribution through our vetted KOLs and Group Leaders, and measurement via the Xerpa Index — compounds automatically. This ensures not just faster execution but also continuous adaptation, something no generalist LLM or patchwork stack can match.

6.   How does the Xerpa Index work, and why should people trust it?

Influence in Web3 is often smoke and mirrors — inflated stats, bot traffic, or cherry-picked screenshots. The Xerpa Index was built to fix that.

It’s based on verifiable data and metrics— no guesswork, no hidden formulas. The score blends four weighted factors: potential reach, engagement quality, follower credibility, and market relevance.

Because it’s designed for comparison, you can track your progress over time and see exactly how you stack up against competitors. And before a KOL even joins our network, we filter their audience for quality — keeping the Index clean and resistant to manipulation.

7.   What’s on the roadmap, both short- and long-term?

In the short term, we’re expanding Creative Labs into video and visual content; opening new distribution channels for Growth Maximizer; and building toward a fully autonomous AGA that can run social accounts end-to-end with client approval.

Long term, our vision is clear:

● The Xerpa Index becomes the universal benchmark for measuring influence in Web3 and beyond.

● XerpaAI = Growth, “To Xerpa” becomes a verb — meaning to grow something fast, precisely, and with measurable impact.

● Your success matters: wherever you succeed, wherever XerpaAI is to help.

The market may shift, but the summit stays the same. Every step now is about getting closer to that peak.

8.   Is there proof the market needs XerpaAI?

Yes — and it’s not just theory. In Web3 and other fast-moving markets, growth is the number one bottleneck. Everyone wants it, but few can deliver it at scale with predictable results.

Our approach is proven — it’s the same model that helped UXLINK grow quickly in users and influence. Since MVP launch, we’ve signed seven paying clients in our first two months and have over 10+ active growth initiatives. Our network already includes 10,000+ KOLs and 100,000+ Group Leaders, with 300+ verified high-impact South Korea KOLs — a market that can make or break entry in the region.

Clients come to us for growth they can measure and repeat. The Xerpa Index gives them clear, verifiable data so they know exactly what’s working.

9.   Why is your team uniquely positioned to succeed?

Our founding team brings together hard-won experience from building late-stage unicorns, scaling major blockchain products, and founding companies of our own. We’ve been through the full arc of the startup journey — from scrappy beginnings to market breakthroughs — and those scars and lessons mean we don’t hesitate when challenges appear. We know how to execute under pressure, and execution is what determines survival in this space.

What sets us apart is our dual base. XerpaAI is anchored in Tokyo, where precision and discipline guide our operations, while our second base in Silicon Valley fuels bold experimentation and scale. Tokyo grounds us; Palo Alto pushes us forward. This East-West blend gives us a rare vantage point to bridge two ecosystems and attract top-tier talent globally.

It’s that blend — proven startup grit and a dual-cultural foundation — that makes us uniquely equipped to guide projects up the steep climb of growth and help them reach their own summit.
