Brothers, @ Surf_Cilot's one week public beta review: From "information overload" to "one click execution", the watershed of encryption research?
1/
Key moments after Surf's public beta testing
Starting from September 16th, Surf is open to everyone. Early stage official statement: 127000+research reports have been generated, saving users over 160000+hours cumulatively. This is not a 'chatbox that can write', but an encrypted AI tool that connects research and execution.
2/
Siege Lion believes that Surf's "product correctness" lies in its specialized domain capabilities rather than general model stacking——
Ask: Lightweight instant Q&A;
Research: Structured in-depth research output (social media sentiment+on chain+derivatives+multi-source web pages);
Execution (Beta): Transform research into a "one click workflow". These three paragraphs connect 'from information to action'.
3/
Coverage depth: Surf claims to track the emotions of over 100000 encrypted KOLs, cover wallets/fund flows across 40+chains, have built-in 200+technical indicators and derivative data, and retrieve 200+websites and proprietary databases during queries. This data pile is crucial for "narrative switching/whale movement/plate rotation".
4/
Social Proof: Surf was listed on Product Hunt on 8/29, with a rating of 4.9/45 reviews and 1.6k followers on the 1st and 3rd of the week. For non "deep coin circle" users, this is a strong signal of "usability and reputation". Product Hunt
5/
Go to the desktop and enter daily life: Surf Lite for macOS has been launched on the App Store (5/29). Positioning "global shortcut key summoning, menu bar quick overview, social media+on chain signal aggregation", providing a landing entrance for "high-frequency small queries+abnormal reminder".
6/
Ecological niche and roadmap: Surf comes from the Cyber ecosystem (Powered by @ BuildoCyber). The Cyber official website clearly defines the positioning of Surf and states that Surf Chat/Chat based trading (coming soon) means that the distance from natural language to "trading actions" continues to shorten.
7/
Recall Collaboration (9/17): Recall has turned the "open proxy ecosystem/verifiable evaluation" into a public arena; Surf, as a user oriented decision-making and execution layer access, has been interpreted by multiple English authors and community accounts as a bridge from experimentation to usability (some channels also mention limited Pro trials).
8/
Benchmark evaluation narrative (truthfully labeled): Surf claims on its official website that CAIA v0.2 (July 2025) is leading in all dimensions; However, the public CAIA Leaderboard of Hugging Face is currently experiencing a runtime error (storage exceeded and expelled), which cannot be viewed directly at this time. Communication suggestion: Label as "Official claim+public bulletin board temporarily unavailable".
9/
Price and 'No Token Plan':
Plus 19/mo (annual payment of 15/mo);
Pro 49/mo (annual payment of 39/mo; including 1 daily Execution Beta);
Max 499/mol (no upper limit for execution/research, priority support);
There is currently no token plan; Annual payment with NFT. Stable commercialization is important for crossing cycles.
10/
What does the English author think?
Maryll.r on Medium summarizes Surf in one sentence: "One tab, all the alpha" - unifying social media, on chain, and cash flow into one panel, turning "browsing ten sites" into "one tab". This type of 'efficiency comparison' narrative is easier to convince traders and researchers.
11/
PH evaluation keywords (excerpt summary): Users gave "in-depth research, real-time emotions, execution ability, structured insights", and also mentioned "the need for guidance on the first-time learning path". This is consistent with the experience of siege lions: the curve is steeper, but the peak is higher.
12/
Reproducible value proposition (three-step siege lion strategy):
Step 1 (Ask): Let Surf quickly capture the "net flow of SOL ecological funds this week+abnormal head addresses".
Step 2 (Research): Generate structured weekly report: price/on chain/social media/narrative quadrants;
Step 3 (Execution Beta): Solidify the "airdrop qualification/task/cross chain interaction" into a workflow and test run it on a low permission wallet. DYOR&Prudent Authorization.
13/
Risk and rebuttal (this paragraph is very helpful):
The security boundary of automated execution: any "wallet built-in/one click execution" requires independent fund and permission isolation;
Objectivity of benchmarks: CAIA is still evolving, and third-party reviews and new version ratings are more crucial;
Ecological dependence: The data/distribution dependence on Cyber is both a moat and a single point.
14/
In the next 2-4 weeks, worth following verification points:
Is the protocol coverage/permission model of Execution Beta expanded;
Surf Chat/Chat trading rhythm and real-life scenario demonstration;
Is there a public demo for task integration/evaluation writing on the recall side;
Whether the sustained reputation of PH and the activity of macOS continue to rise.
15/
Community side Easter egg: A social media blogger mentioned that sharing Surf research before September 30th can participate in a 5000 CYBER reward (unofficial statement, pay attention to time and authenticity verification). It can be used as a mobilization point for regional communities, but the source must be indicated.
16/Conclusion
The siege lion believes that the advantage of Surf lies not in the "larger model", but in the more closely aligned task chain - thickening the "data insight action" loop. The decisive factor will be:
1) Controllable security and protocol breadth of Execution;
2) Verifiable benefits of Recall scenarios;
3) Persistent product revenue rather than game sentiment. DYOR / NFA。
