About Katama

One creative platform.
Every AI model. No nonsense.

Katama exists because creative professionals shouldn't need six subscriptions, three browser tabs, and a PhD in prompt engineering to use AI. One platform, one credit system, every model that matters.

What we build

Katama is a full-stack AI creative platform. You write a prompt, pick a studio, and we route the best model for the job — image generation, video creation, UGC ads, avatar lip-sync, website building, or multi-step automation. Everything runs through a single credit system with transparent per-generation pricing.

The platform includes a developer API (REST + MCP), social features (DMs, profiles, explore feed), a marketplace for reselling credits, $KATA token integration for bonus credits and on-chain transparency, and a full admin suite for platform operations. Built with Next.js, Drizzle, PostgreSQL, and deployed on Vercel.

Principles

One platform, every model

You shouldn't need six subscriptions to access the best AI. Katama routes 44+ models — image, video, chat, audio — behind one credit system. Use the best tool for each job without vendor lock-in.

Honest pricing

Credits cost what they cost. No hidden fees, no surprise overages, no wasted monthly allocations. You see the price before you generate, and failures don't charge. The Guardian system ensures margins stay healthy without gouging users.

On-chain transparency

Every paying user's daily activity is logged to Base mainnet. Total generations, credits spent, models used — verifiable by anyone. No fake metrics, no inflated numbers. The blockchain is the audit trail.

Open by default

REST API and MCP server from day one. If you can write a curl command, you can use Katama. Claude Desktop, Cursor, and any MCP client connect directly. Your data exports cleanly. No walled garden.

Ship fast, stay honest

Features ship when they work, not when they're perfect. If something is stubbed or limited, the UI says so plainly. Coming Soon means coming soon, not abandoned. Changelog is public and current.

Money-safe architecture

Reserve-settle pattern: credits are held before work starts and only charged on success. Failures release the hold. No double-charges, no lost credits, no manual refund requests. The system is correct by construction.
