Trump Says America Is Winning the AI Race. Investors Are Looking for the Companies Behind It

President Trump's new AI Action Plan is pushing to put America firmly ahead in the global AI race.

Launched in July 2025, the plan includes more than 90 policy actions aimed at accelerating innovation, expanding infrastructure, and cementing U.S. leadership, from fast-tracking data centers to boosting chip production and AI talent.

It also tackles a quieter issue: energy. AI demands enormous power, so the administration is backing new energy projects, including advanced nuclear solutions built for AI infrastructure. Without power, there's no AI economy.

It's one of the most aggressive AI pushes the country has seen. And when a shift this big takes off, the biggest winners aren't always the companies making headlines, they're often the ones working behind the scenes, built to benefit from how the technology gets used. Companies like Mode Mobile.

History shows the real gains often land away from the spotlight. The internet didn't just reward telecoms; smartphones didn't just reward Apple. The winners were the platforms built on top, capturing how people actually used the technology. AI could follow the same pattern but this time, the bottleneck isn't chips or compute. It's data.

AI Labs Have a Data Problem

Every frontier AI lab is chasing the same thing: real human behavior. Scraped data is tangled in litigation. Synthetic data has a ceiling. The models that will actually understand people need to learn from people, with their consent, and at scale.

Nobody had built that supply chain until Mode Mobile.

A Different Approach to the Attention Economy

Mode.Inc's thesis is simple: AI's first decade was extracted. Its next decade will be earned.

For twenty years, the biggest tech fortunes were built by scraping, harvesting, and inferring data from everyday people, who got nothing in return. Mode.Inc is flipping that model. Through Mode Mobile's EarnOS platform, everyday users get paid real cash for everyday phone activity: listening to music, playing games, engaging with apps, even charging their phone.

That everyday activity is exactly the kind of real, consented, first-party behavioral signal that AI companies need to train and refine their models. Instead of scraping it for free, Mode pays people at the source, then can license that consented data supply to AI labs, enterprises, brands, researchers, and financial firms through its AI data division.

Already Operating At Scale

Mode Mobile isn't just an idea. It's got traction.

The company reports:

Mode Mobile was also ranked the #1 fastest-growing software company in North America by Deloitte after posting 32,481% growth.

That growth continues to attract increasing attention from investors looking for AI opportunities beyond the headlines, especially after the company secured its Nasdaq ticker ($MODE).

Why AI Could Amplify This Model

As AI makes apps faster and more engaging, people will spend more time on their devices.

Mode is built to sit right in the middle of that exchange, as the compliant, consented pipeline connecting everyday users to the AI companies that need to understand how people actually behave.

Not Just a Hardware Play

Mode isn't competing with Apple or Samsung.

It's building a data supply chain on top of mobile activity. The EarnPhone helps distribute its software, but the broader business runs on advertising, subscriptions, software licensing, partnerships, and now, data licensing to AI buyers.

As more users join and reward-earning activity compounds, the consented data layer gets richer, and so does the supply Mode can offer AI labs.

Mode is also expanding its reach. In 2025, it acquired the viral app NGL, adding a large Gen Z audience and another stream of first-party behavioral data.

As AI labs compete for the human signal that scraped and synthetic data can't replace, platforms with strong, consenting user bases may be positioned to grow even faster.

Investor Access

Mode is still private, but its Regulation A+ offerings have opened access to everyday investors.

Its $45M raise in 2025 sold out.

The company has also reserved the Nasdaq ticker MODE, signaling plans to go public.

And a new round is now open.

Pre-IPO Shares Still Available (For Now)

Even though Mode's ticker ($MODE) is secured, investors can still claim pre-IPO shares for $0.52, with bonus shares available.

More than 60,000 investors have already invested over $100 million.

As the next wave of AI-driven growth takes shape, some investors are looking beyond the headlines… and toward the platforms built to supply what AI actually needs.

For many, that's Mode Mobile.

Bonus Share Structure

Mode is offering tiered bonus shares to incentivize larger commitments:

Investors that attend Mode's investor webinar receive an additional 5% bonus on top of the tier above, subject to a maximum of 20%.
