AI.com is a new decentralized AI agent platform owned by Kris Marszalek, CEO of Crypto.com, who purchased the premium domain for $70 million in cryptocurrency in April 2025. The platform officially launched on February 8, 2026, with a Super Bowl 60 advertisement that generated so much traffic it crashed the website.
AI.com aims to provide users with personal AI agents capable of performing real-world tasks like organizing work, sending messages, executing actions across apps, and building projects autonomously.
What Is AI.com?
AI.com establishes itself as a platform to accelerate the arrival of Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) through a decentralized network of autonomous, self-improving AI agents. The domain itself has existed since at least 1993, previously redirecting visitors to major AI platforms like ChatGPT and Gemini before Marszalek's acquisition.
The platform allows users to create personal AI agents that operate on their behalf. According to the company's website, these agents can handle tasks ranging from organizing calendars and sending messages to more complex functions like trading stocks and updating dating profiles. The platform promises permission-based, private operation with the ability to create multiple agents for different purposes.
A key feature distinguishes AI.com from competitors. The company claims its agents can autonomously build missing features and capabilities to complete real-world tasks. These improvements then get shared across millions of agents on the network, theoretically increasing utility for all users.
How Much Did Marszalek Pay for the Domain?
Marszalek purchased AI.com for $70 million in cryptocurrency, completing the transaction in April 2025 and disclosing it publicly on February 6, 2026. The deal, brokered by Larry Fischer of GetYourDomain.com, represents the largest publicly known domain sale in history.
Breaking Previous Records
The $70 million price tag more than doubled the previous record of $30 million paid for voice.com. Fischer confirmed the price but did not identify the seller. The entire transaction was completed in cryptocurrency, bypassing traditional banking systems and demonstrating crypto's capability for major asset transfers.
This isn't Marszalek's first premium domain purchase. He previously acquired crypto.com for $12 million in 2018, a move that helped establish Crypto.com's brand identity in the competitive exchange market.
Strategic Value Beyond Price
Marszalek has turned down substantial resale offers since acquiring AI.com. In a LinkedIn post, broker Larry Fischer described the transaction as historic, noting its significance for both the domain industry and cryptocurrency adoption. The CEO views the domain as a 10 to 20 year bet on AI's growth trajectory rather than a short-term investment.
The Super Bowl Launch and Traffic Crash
AI.com debuted with a 30-second advertisement during the fourth quarter of Super Bowl 60 on February 8, 2026. The ad featured glowing orbs colliding to reveal the AI.com logo, accompanied by the claim that "AGI is coming" and instructions for viewers to claim personal handles on the platform.
