The recent product updates that we have shipped was based on a believe that Oracles need to evolve because onchain applications are no longer asking only simple questions like:
“What is the price?”
They increasingly need to answer:
“What does this data mean?”
“What is happening in the real world?”
“Is the evidence strong enough to act?”
That is why Cournot sees oracle infrastructure evolving in four stages:
🔸Oracle 1.0: delivers fixed answers such as prices.
🔸Oracle 2.0 - The Semantic Oracle: turns trusted data into flexible, verifiable queries.
🔸Oracle 3.0 - The Intelligence Oracle: interprets unstructured events and produces evidence-backed judgments.
🔸Oracle 4.0 - The Agentic Oracle: continuously monitors, reasons, and triggers approved actions.
Currently, Cournot is live at Oracle 3.0, with Oracle 4.0 under development. With this, Cournot is now able to serve multiple TAM from different verticals: Prediction Markets, RWA/Collectibles, Trading Intelligence & Signals, Defi Products, and beyond,
