Company mission
To leverage AI to find and take down threats across social media, crypto, domains, and app stores.
Our take
While the NFT space is often one that is enticing to investors and traders, there are persistent issues with fraud in the market. Cybercriminals are able to pass off any image as their own intellectual property, and while NFT marketplaces do abide by copyright laws this kind of fraud can be hard to spot before money changes hands. The damage to a brand's reputation and customer trust can be hard to rectify.
Doppel exists to solve this problem. Using an AI model trained to spot fraud and IP violations, it indexes NFT data across most of the major blockchains and flags potentially fraudulent NFTs. Trusted by Opensea, Dapper and numerous other marketplaces, Doppel scans over 1.5 million NFTs daily and has identified over 100,000 threats in the marketplace.
Doppel has raised significant funding, most recently in May 2022, just a few months after its founding. This investment is being used to scale Doppel's platform, develop its features and hire additional talent. While the NFT sector as a whole is going through a turbulent time, the applications of NFTs in new areas such as gaming and ticketing are not going unnoticed. Doppel is well placed to apply its product to any industry aiming to use blockchain technology securely.
