Axis Robotics airdrop: How to take part and claim AXIS

The claim, i.e. collecting the tokens from the Axis Robotics airdrop, has been open on Base since October 21, 2026, at 12:00 UTC. The contributor rewards program allocates a total of 100 million AXIS across two seasons, but the current claim covers allocations that have already been finalized. You don’t need to buy a token or make a deposit, but you do need a small amount of ETH on Base for the network fee.

What is Axis Robotics

Axis Robotics is a crowdsourced data platform for training robots, with records kept on the Base blockchain. Instead of requiring expensive equipment from every participant, it gives each one a virtual robotic arm in the browser.

Imagine trying to grab an object and put it in the right place in a virtual kitchen. The arm’s path is recorded, automatically scored and given an onchain record of its origin before it is used to train robotics models.

We find this link interesting: the reward is tied to producing useful demonstrations, not just to having an account. The real question, of course, is the quality of that data.

The airdrop in brief

The Community Contributor Airdrop represents 10% of the total supply of one billion AXIS. The first season covers simulations before the token’s launch, known as the TGE, while the second focuses on the transition from simulation to the real world, the so-called sim-to-real.

The allocations for the current claim were finalized with the eligibility snapshot of October 18, 2026. Creating an account now does not retroactively make you eligible for Season 1.

For Community Contributors, 50% unlocked at the TGE on October 21, 2026. Another 25% follows on January 21, 2027, and the final 25% on April 21, 2027. Discord role rewards unlocked in full at the TGE, while purchased allocations from the community sale follow a different schedule.

Season 2 was set to start on October 23, 2026. Don’t assume the first season’s rules carry over to the second: eligibility for new participants and its terms need to be checked separately on the Hub.

How to take part step by step

If you have an allocation, start with the claim; if you are a new user, start with Axis Hub, without assuming any reward is guaranteed.

1. Put a little ETH on Base. The wallet you use to claim needs ETH on that specific network to pay the transaction cost (gas). ETH on another network won’t cover this fee.
2. Open the official claim page. Use the page’s participation button and check the address before connecting. The claim takes place on Base Mainnet.
3. Sign in with the right account. Community Contributor and Discord Role allocations are linked to your AXIS Hub account. If your reward doesn’t show up, first check that you are using the account you took part with.
4. Check the Allocations tab. This shows the amount available. For Season 1 Community Contributors, the initial available installment is 50% of your personal allocation, not the whole reward.
5. Confirm the claim. You can claim all unlocked tokens linked to an account at once. These rewards are verified through AXIS Hub, and previous claims appear in the Claim history.
6. To take part for the first time, create a Hub account. Sign-up supports email, Google, X or a wallet. Check the terms of the active season before spending time on tasks. The following steps describe how Season 1 worked.
7. Complete the available tasks. In the pre-training tasks, you guide the arm to grab, place or stack objects. Scoring looks at success, efficiency and smooth movement. Failed attempts are not uploaded and carry no penalty.
8. Try the post-training tasks. In post-training, you watch an already trained model and take over control when it fails. You have a 30-second window to intervene. Incomplete attempts score zero, while completing the task without intervening scores higher.
9. Sign your completed submissions. In Season 1, every completed task had to be signed on Base through the Portfolio to count toward Axis Points. Completion alone was not enough.

Tips for more points

In Season 1, difficulty, variety and quality mattered more than mechanically repeating easy tasks. This is the scoring logic you need to understand, without taking it for granted for Season 2.

Vary both the scenes and the skills you use. There was a limit of five completions per task per account, with any extra ones excluded from scoring. Abrupt or random movements could also lower quality, even if you ultimately hit the goal.

The harder Challenger tasks paid two to three times more points and required an active “Seek the Unseen” badge in the Portfolio. Alliance tasks could award points plus an extra partner reward, under each campaign’s terms.

The signing deadline for each scoring period (Epoch) was Friday at 00:00 UTC. Anyone who left signatures pending lost their inclusion in that period. For referral invites, only direct invitees counted, along with the tasks they completed and signed, not mere sign-ups.

What to watch out for

Free participation does not mean zero transaction costs or a guaranteed AXIS allocation. Factor in gas and your time, especially if you are starting out without a secured reward.

The claim page lists a deadline for unlocked but unclaimed tokens of January 21, 2027, at 12:00 UTC. Make sure you claim the initial TGE installment before then; don’t confuse it with the later unlock schedule.

Avoid claim links from direct messages or social media replies. Axis Robotics uses the @axisrobotics account and is not the separate Axis project on Ethereum. A similar name is not enough reason to trust a page.
