Hey ApeCoin DAO Community,
Here’s an update for AIP-182 covering our progress and future plans.
Current Progress:
GIF & Meme Library:
Launched and used by over 100 communities in web3 for almost a year. The library continues to grow in terms of both content and users.
Software Optimizations:
Fixed slowdowns and access issues, reducing template loading time by 10x and optimizing functionality across all devices, browsers, and platforms.
New Features & Customizations:
- GIF Customization: Users can now fine-tune head placement on GIF templates.
- Text: Added 20+ new fonts, 6 new styles, and numerous color options.
- Wallet Integration: Connect wallets for extra functionality, token-gated spaces, and a more personalized experience.
- Custom Faces: Users can upload custom faces to use with templates.
- Last Used Section: Users can quickly access previously used assets.
Content Expansion:
Over 3000 GIFs with face-tracking, 2000+ memes, and daily content updates are available in the platform’s “new” section.
ApeCoin Content & Community Area:
-
Created hundreds of ApeCoin-branded GIF and meme templates.
-
Launched a token-gated space for ApeCoin holders offering exclusive content for $APE holders called ApeCoin Community Area.
-
Collaborated with ApeCoin ecosystem projects, like ThankApe by providing them with unique content templates for contributions.
-
Created unique templates for events like ApeCoin Elections and NFTNYC in collab with ApeCoin MarComms.
ApeCoin Watermark:
Featured on every piece of content exported during the platform’s first year, with over 40,000 downloads, 7,000 Community Area downloads, and 20M+ impressions on X.
Mobile App:
Beta-tested by 100 ambassadors, resulting in 3,000+ pieces of content created. Due to feedback, a wallet login has been added, and due to iOS app limitations in terms of wallet connection decided to opt in for a PWA instead, for greater platform compatibility.
User Growth:
Unique users have grown 11x since the public release and 4x since early 2024. Current user numbers:
-
October 2023: 831
-
February 2024: 2,225
-
August 2024: 8,821
Partnerships & B2B Services
Since the last update, 3look has collaborated with over 100 web3 projects including: A KID Called BEAST, Mocaverse, Redacted, Thrive Protocol, Lazy Lions, Chimpers, on1Force, Venom Foundation, The Plague, Hape, Baby Doge, B3L, EON RIFT, Moon Ape Lab, Moonrunners, OCB, Space Riders, and The Habibiz and many more.
Additionally, we began offering paid B2B services, including onboarding and creating custom white-label content library iFrames for web3 projects. These iFrames can be embedded anywhere on their website, enabling seamless content creation for project-specific needs.
Some of our top B2B clients include Multifarm.io, Snek, Applied Primate, Space Riders, and PXN (Ghost Division), and more.
Summary & Future Plans
This update covers much more than we initially planned for the AIP implementation, and we’re just getting started with an exciting journey ahead of us:
- Introducing advanced creative tools to give web3 creators more freedom
- Evolving 3look into a SocialFi Meme Generator on ApeChain, allowing creators to earn by making content for brands and projects they love
- Expanding to multiple chains and ecosystems
- Becoming the top SocialFi meme generator for web3 and beyond
We’re confidently moving toward our goals, aiming to take over the web3 content creation, distribution, and monetization, which, we believe, will bring significant benefits to the ApeCoin ecosystem as well.
We’ll gladly keep you updated upon request!
