[AIArtify] Create AI-Generated Art & Mint NFTs with Hyperion + Alith

Live Link: https://www.ai-artify.xyz/

Team Name: AIArtify
Track: Track 1 - AI-Native and Core-Aligned Projects
Bonus Track: Alith Integration

:brain: What We’re Building:

AIArtify is an AI-native dApp that allows anyone to generate artwork using AI prompts and mint them as NFTs on the Hyperion blockchain, with optional Alith AI integration for smart co-creation.

Our goal is to make Web3 and AI creation accessible to non-technical users. We simplify the experience with Firebase Studio for the frontend, and use Hyperion’s fast, low-latency infra for real-time NFT minting.


:sparkles: Core Features:

  • AI Prompt-to-Image Generation (using Gen AI + optional Alith suggestions)
  • One-Click NFT Minting on Hyperion
  • On-chain metadata (prompt + art hash + AI description)
  • Firebase Auth for user onboarding (Google/Email)
  • Public NFT gallery + user dashboard
  • Gamified tasks (minting, sharing, referral) to onboard users

:robot: AI & Hyperion Integration:

  • AI-Native Logic: Prompt generation and curation handled by Alith or similar LLM
  • On-Chain AI: Exploring use of Alith to score or annotate NFTs
  • Hyperion Smart Contracts: Mint NFTs with real-time performance and store metadata

:building_construction: Current Progress:

  • Firebase project setup :white_check_mark:
  • UI wireframes in progress :white_check_mark:
  • Prompt-to-Image generation working with local model :white_check_mark:
  • Alith GraphQL exploration ongoing

Hello @ashqking , how are you?

What stands out the most to you about this concept, using AI to create art and mint NFTs with the Hyperion blockchain? Are there any particular features that appeal to you more than others?

How important is it for users to see the AI’s reasoning behind its artistic choices (e.g., prompt explanations, generation history, etc.)?

Hi @priyankg3 :waving_hand: — thank you for the thoughtful question!

What stands out most to me about this concept is the convergence of creativity, transparency, and permanence. AIArtify isn’t just about generating beautiful images; it’s about enabling co-creation with AI, and then preserving that collaboration on-chain forever via Hyperion.


:magnifying_glass_tilted_left: What I find most appealing:

  • On-Chain Provenance with Meaning:
    We embed the AI’s reasoning (via “Alith”)—including the refined prompt, creative title, and explanation—directly into the NFT metadata. This turns each token into a narrative artifact, not just an image.
  • True On-Chain Storage:
    Instead of pointing to external images, we embed a data URI into the NFT metadata itself. This leverages Hyperion’s high-throughput, low-cost infrastructure beautifully and ensures that the art and its story are inseparable from the token.
  • Creative Assistant, Not Just a Tool:
    Alith isn’t just refining prompts—it’s collaborating. That elevates user experience and gives artists context and inspiration. It’s like having an AI muse.

:eye: Why the AI’s Reasoning Matters:

Very important! In traditional AI art apps, the image just “appears”—but why it was generated that way is a mystery. With AIArtify, we believe users value:

  • Understanding how their prompt evolved
  • Seeing why the AI made certain creative choices
  • Having a transparent record of their co-creation process

This also builds trust and emotional ownership, which are crucial for any long-lasting NFT.


We’d love feedback on how we could make Alith’s explanations even more useful or interactive. Thanks again for engaging with our project! :raising_hands:

Built by: @ashqking


:magnifying_glass_tilted_left: Project Overview

AIArtify is an AI-powered Web3 application that allows users to generate art using Alith-style prompt reasoning, mint it as NFTs, and showcase it in a global community gallery. Every artwork is saved permanently on-chain, linked with user details and prompt metadata.


:rocket: Core Features

  • :artist_palette: Art Generation: Users input a prompt, AI generates a detailed reasoning + prompt enhancement using Genkit + Alith-inspired logic.
  • :brain: Prompt Reasoning: Inspired by LazAI’s structured AI thinking model, we generate a 3-part enhancement:
    1. Creative Interpretation
    2. Refined Prompt
    3. Style Suggestion
  • :chains: NFT Minting: Mint your AI-generated artwork as an NFT on Metis Hyperion with prompt + reason stored in metadata.
  • :framed_picture: Global Gallery: Browse all AI artworks minted by the community, with filters and author credits.
  • :trophy: Leaderboard: Users earn XP for each mint, tracked on-chain in a points-based leaderboard system.

Mission: To empower every individual—artist or not—to co-create unique art with AI and preserve it on the blockchain forever.

:money_bag: Monetization Strategy

  • Premium AI styles
  • Featured artwork slots
  • NFT royalties and marketplace integration
  • Creator profile pages with donation/tip support

:round_pushpin: Roadmap

  • User profiles and wallet-based XP system
  • Collections & thematic challenges
  • DAO-based art curation and featured drops
  • Mobile-optimized PWA version

:laptop: GitHub Repository

  • Clean folder structure
  • Modular API routes
  • Smart contracts: 0x401FAb91BdE961cfcac8c54F5466aB39c7203803 and 0x46D4Bbc30437223C4a1BFA203bc57209e55682Ea
  • Vercel + Genkit integrated frontend

:brain: Bonus Track: Alith & LazAI Integration

AIArtify uses a reasoning-based prompt enhancement engine inspired by Alith’s structured creativity model. Instead of just converting text-to-image, it breaks user prompts into:

  • A creative theme
  • A refined prompt
  • A style suggestion
    …which are stored on-chain as part of each NFT.

Our implementation is modular and can be extended to plug into the full LazAI SDK in future versions.

We believe this aligns with the Alith and LazAI spirit of co-creation and AI agents.

Good day, Ashqking. Can you please elaborate more on this and why mint is happening on Polygon? Probably just a mistype or I missed something. Also seems like app is not available for mobile atm, isn’t it?

AI, Art, NFTs are my three core passions in web3. ArtifyAI looks like my potential favorite app on Hyperion, let’s connect.

I also think that there are three projects on hackathon which can successfully collaborate :slightly_smiling_face: ArtifyAI, Festify and Vibesflow. You guys definitely should connect with each other.

Hey @irinaina,
Thanks for catching that — that was indeed a mistype in an older early test version description. AIArtify mints exclusively on the Metis Hyperion testnet (Chain ID 133717) using our deployed ERC721 contract: 0x401fab91bde961cfcac8c54f5466ab39c7203803. No Polygon integration is live in this build.

The on-chain minting process uses LazAI-enhanced metadata and stores the image data directly on-chain via data URI for permanence.

Regarding mobile — the dApp UI is fully responsive, but some wallet connection methods (MetaMask mobile browser injection) require final testing. We’re actively optimizing the mobile onboarding flow so creators can mint directly from their phones before final submission.

Love the idea of connecting with Festify and Vibesflow! Since AIArtify focuses on AI-enhanced NFT minting with LazAI + Hyperion, we could explore integrating:

  • Festify for event-themed NFT drops
  • Vibesflow for music/art crossover collections

Let’s sync this week — could make for some exciting cross-platform campaigns before the deadline.

AIArtify dApp test review

Tester: tg @irinacaner
Date: 08.25
Test Network: Metis/Hyperion Testnet
Wallet Used: MetaMask
Browser/Devices: Chrome, Desktop + Mobile, MetaMask browser
Test Results & Performance Summary:

  • Wallet Connection: Works seamlessly on both desktop and mobile. No delays or errors detected.

  • Faucet Access: Not directly integrated into the app — adding a quick faucet link would simplify onboarding for new users.

  • AI Assistant (Alith): Works effectively in refining prompts for generating art. Guidance feels helpful and improves user output.

  • Art Generation: Fast and smooth process. No bugs or interruptions.

  • Minting Process: Seamless and quick. All minted artworks appear in both the My Collection page and the Gallery.

  • Upload Existing Art: Very valuable for onboarding artists into Web3. Provides a frictionless way for artists to mint and display their work even without AI generation.

  • UI/UX: Clean, user-friendly, and visually satisfying.

  • Art Verification (LazAI): Works as intended, but the process could use additional explanation for clarity.

Issues / Bugs Detected:

  • No technical bugs were detected during testing.

Suggestions for Improvement:

  1. Faucet Link: Add a quick link to faucet for easier access to claim test tokens.

  2. Social Sharing: Enable users to share minted artworks not only straight after generation and minting but also from their My Collection page to social platforms.

  3. Gallery → Collection Link: Allow users to click through from gallery items to view the collection owner’s wallet/collection.

  4. Marketplace Features (Future): Integrate basic NFT marketplace functionality to allow artists to list and collectors to purchase artworks.

  5. Explanations for LazAI Verification: Add more context or a short guide on why/how to verify artworks with LazAI.

  6. Social Links: Include quick links to the project’s social channels within the app.

  7. Leaderboard Clarification: Clarify whether the leaderboard counts only AI-generated artworks or includes uploaded pieces as well.

  8. LazAI vs AI Comparison: Make it clear that this feature is designed to demonstrate the accuracy of LazAI and its role in verification.

Improvement Roadmap

Current Strengths (Already Working Well):

  • Seamless wallet connection on desktop & mobile

  • Fast and reliable AI art generation with Alith

  • Smooth minting flow with artworks appearing instantly in collection & gallery

  • Valuable upload feature for onboarding artists without AI reliance

  • Clean, user-friendly UI/UX

Immediate Fixes (Quick Wins):

  • Add a faucet link for easy access to test tokens

  • Provide clearer explanation of LazAI verification process

  • Include project’s social links inside the app

  • Clarify leaderboard rules (AI-generated vs. uploaded art)

  • Add ability to share artworks to socials from the collection page

  • Enable gallery → collection owner link for deeper exploration

Future Opportunities (Bigger Features):

  • Introduce AI mascot/avatar (optional) to make Alith more engaging

  • Add basic marketplace functions: listing, buying, selling created NFTs

  • Explore gamification elements (badges, rewards, art challenges)

  • Expand LazAI vs. AI comparison into an educational/awareness tool about authenticity in AI art

  • Potential for collaborative art generation or contests to grow community engagement

  • Exclusive Collection Launches: Allow other projects to launch small, exclusive NFT collections directly on the platform — creating a new utility layer and potential revenue stream

What I Loved:

  • Flawless technical performance — smooth wallet connection, minting, and gallery display.

  • Fast AI art generation supported by Alith’s prompt improvements.

  • Valuable upload feature for onboarding non-AI artists.

  • Clean and user-friendly interface that makes minting accessible to all.

Conclusion:

AIArtify delivers a technically smooth and enjoyable experience, combining fast AI art generation with Web3 minting. The inclusion of an upload feature broadens the platform’s appeal to artists beyond AI creators. While the app runs without any bugs, it could benefit from added clarity around LazAI verification, social features, and future marketplace functionality.

It was a pleasure to test the application and to see the team’s responsiveness and openness to feedback. The foundation already feels polished, and with the suggested improvements, AIArtify has strong potential to become both an AI-powered creative hub and a meaningful NFT platform for artists and collectors.
