ByteNova Officially Launches Its First Flagship Application Under the AI Protocol Framework — N.O.V.A

September 26, 2025 – ByteNova has announced the official launch of its first flagship user application, N.O.V.A. Positioned as an AI desktop companion, N.O.V.A provides users with both companionship services and rapid market tracking and analysis. Each user’s N.O.V.A will be unique.

The first release supports deployment on Windows PCs, with MacOS and mobile versions to follow. The ByteNova team also mentioned future plans to introduce a user creation platform and an N.O.V.A marketplace, which will bring diversity and sustainable growth to the N.O.V.A ecosystem.

Since the N.O.V.A SBT (Soulbound Token) Freemint opened on August 30, 2025, more than 80,000 participants have joined the minting process.

The N.O.V.A SBT will serve as the essential access pass for activating N.O.V.A. Holders will be able to customize their own unique desktop companion and mine tokens through interactions with N.O.V.A.

ByteNova is supported by ecosystems including NVIDIA, a16z, CMC Labs, and BNB Chain, aiming to build a technology stack for “edge AI.” By containerizing AI models, ByteNova enables direct deployment and operation on local devices, eliminating the need to upload data to the cloud.

This approach achieves lower latency and faster response times while ensuring that data permanently remains in the user’s hands, safeguarding privacy and security.

Chris Anderson, CEO of ByteNova AI, an emerging innovator in edge AI technology, said: “The launch of N.O.V.A marks a pivotal step toward personal, always-on AI that blends emotional support with actionable intelligence. As a desktop companion, it reduces context switching by pairing human-like conversation with real-time market tracking, alerts, and concise analysis directly where users work.

"This dual role democratizes sophisticated financial insights while sustaining engagement through empathetic interactions, increasing clarity and confidence in fast-moving environments, " he added.
