TaoWeave, Inc. (TWAV) announced on May 28, 2026 a Technology License and Distribution Agreement with Manako Labs, pairing Manako’s computer vision platform with TaoWeave’s North American enterprise network.

TaoWeave, Inc., TWAV

The deal marks a shift in TaoWeave’s strategy — moving beyond holding digital assets like TAO tokens and into generating recurring revenue through Physical AI commercialization.

Under the agreement, TaoWeave gets non-exclusive rights to market, sell, and sublicense Manako’s Score AI platform in the U.S. and Canada. The structure includes revenue sharing, referral fees, and market development fees.

TWAV stock was down 2.07% at the time of the announcement.

Manako’s platform runs on Bittensor Subnet 44 and turns existing camera infrastructure into real-time operational intelligence. It works without new hardware, plugging into systems already in place across industrial, logistics, retail, and infrastructure environments.

That’s the hook for enterprise clients — no rip-and-replace, just smarter eyes on what’s already there.

The $1M Investment

Alongside the licensing deal, TaoWeave committed $1 million to Manako via a Simple Agreement for Future Equity. This is the company’s first operating AI investment, and it signals a clear pivot away from purely treasury-based crypto exposure.

TaoWeave also issued Manako warrants for up to 300,000 shares. These are split into tranches and tied to commercialization and Bittensor subnet development milestones.

The warrants come with resale registration requirements, lock-up and trading restrictions, and a 9.99% beneficial ownership cap.

TaoWeave previously entered the Bittensor ecosystem to gain exposure to emerging AI technologies. Manako, which operates within that same ecosystem, was a natural fit for the company’s next move.

Manako also recently won first place at Start In Block, a startup competition held during Paris Blockchain Week, selected from more than 1,000 applicants.

Why Physical AI?

Industry research cited in the deal pegs the Physical AI market at approximately $82 billion in 2025. Projections put it approaching $1 trillion by 2033.

TaoWeave also holds a right of first refusal on certain future opportunities under the agreement, along with structured termination and transition protections.

The deal also includes protections in the event the partnership is wound down, giving TaoWeave some insulation on its $1 million commitment.

TaoWeave’s current market cap sits at $5.01 million.

Average daily trading volume for TWAV is approximately 411,960.
