It provides a 3D digital recreation of Melbourne Park, the tournament’s physical grounds, allowing a global audience to explore the venue, interact with other fans, and stream live or historic matches from within the metaverse.
The platform leverages the Hedera network to power its digital asset strategy including its central feature, the "AO Art Ball" NFT collection, which consists of thousands of unique NFTs linked to specific 19cm x 19cm plots of the real-world tennis courts. When a winning shot from an official match lands on a plot, the corresponding NFT is updated in real-time with match data, and its owner is rewarded with exclusive utility, such as match footage or merchandise.

NFT Grade is a service that provides a standardized, objective grading system for non-fungible tokens (NFTs), aiming to bring greater transparency and trust to the digital collectibles market. The company's mission is to create a reliable method for assessing the value and rarity of NFTs, similar to how physical collectibles like trading cards are professionally graded.
The core of NFT Grade's service is its proprietary algorithm, which analyzes the metadata of an NFT to determine its rarity and overall grade. This process takes into account various factors, including the individual traits of the NFT and their prevalence within the entire collection. The platform provides a detailed "Grade Card" for each assessed NFT, which includes an overall score, a breakdown of its trait rarities, and a unique serial number. This allows collectors and investors to make more informed decisions by providing a clear and objective measure of an NFT's value.
NFT Grade utilizes Hedera's high-throughput and low-cost infrastructure to create a secure and transparent record of its grading process. Each Grade Card is minted as an NFT on the Hedera Token Service (HTS), creating an immutable and auditable record of the grade.

Headstarter is a decentralized fundraising platform and launchpad built exclusively for the Hedera network. Its primary purpose is to accelerate the growth of the Hedera ecosystem by providing a secure and streamlined environment for new projects to raise capital and build an initial community.
The platform operates on a tier-based system centered around its native token, $HST. To gain access to token sales, prospective investors are required to stake a certain amount of $HST, which places them into different tiers. These tiers determine the size of the allocation a user is guaranteed in an upcoming IDO, with higher amounts of staked tokens granting access to larger investment opportunities. This model creates utility and sustained demand for the $HST token while ensuring a fair and organized capital-raising process.
For projects, Headstarter provides an end-to-end solution for launching a token, handling the technical complexities of the sale and providing access to an engaged community from day one. For investors, it offers a vetted and secure venue to discover and support promising, early-stage Hedera-native projects.
