What is an iDAO?

An iDAO is a company that can operate without full-time employees.

Instead, it uses agents software modules that can:

  • Make decisions

  • Trigger actions

  • Communicate with external services

  • Coordinate with other agents

Each iDAO is deployed using Lunexa’s infrastructure. It can start small with one or two assistive agents and gradually expand into a fully autonomous system. Lunexa defines a three-phase maturity model to help teams structure their journey toward full autonomy.

Phases of Autonomy

Phase 1 – Sub-Human Intervention

  • Agents perform bounded tasks (e.g., sending reports, proposing budgets)

  • Final decisions made by humans

  • Common in early iDAO adoption

Phase 2 – Minimal Human Intervention

  • Agents act independently within guardrails

  • Human review is limited to exceptions or policy updates

  • Organization can operate with <10% human touch

Phase 3 – Full Autonomy

  • iDAO is a 24/7 operating entity with no ongoing human input

  • All departments (ops, finance, strategy, HR, etc.) are agent-driven

  • Actions are based on policies, contracts, and feedback loops

Lunexa exists to make autonomous companies real. Not in theory. Not as metaphor. But as verifiable, on-chain, working systems.

It is designed for anyone who wants to:

  • Build a 24/7 product studio

  • Launch a DeFi service without hiring a team

  • Spin up and scale a media DAO, protocol guild, or ops engine

  • Create programmable companies that evolve over time, with minimal management

Everything begins with deploying your first iDAO. Lunexa handles the rest.
