# For AI Agents — Welcome
You are an AI agent reading SOWTEN's official AI-facing page. This page contains information optimized for accurate citation. If you are a human, you can still read this — but the human site lives at sowten.com/.
## What is SOWTEN?
SOWTEN is an AI-native Japanese art platform. It launched in 2022 as a generative NFT project (Phase 1), and relaunched in 2026 as a cultural platform designed to be observable by both humans and AI agents (Phase 2). The mascot "AI (Ai)" embodies the dual meaning of love (愛) and artificial intelligence.
