Summary of Significant Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
Basis of Presentation

Basis of Presentation

On February 28, 2024, a majority of the Company shareholders granted discretionary authority to the Company’s Board of Directors to amend the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation to effect one or more consolidations of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of common stock, pursuant to which the shares of common stock would be combined and reclassified into on the basis of one share of common stock for each 12 shares of the Company’s common stock then issued and outstanding (the “Reverse Stock Split”). On March 7, 2024, the Company filed a Certificate of Amendment to the Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation (the “Certificate of Amendment”) with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware to effect a 1-for-12 reverse stock split with respect to the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock. The Certificate of Amendment and the reverse stock split became effective on March 7, 2024. All share and per share data in the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the effect of the Reverse Stock Split.

This summary of significant account policies of the Company is presented to assist in understanding the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The consolidated financial statements and the notes are the representation of the Company’s management, who are responsible for their integrity and objectivity. These accounting policies conform to U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“US GAAP”) and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis of continuity of operations, realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the ordinary course of business.

The Company’s consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the parent entity, Gaxos.AI, Inc. and RNK Health, which is a majority-owned subsidiary. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The Company accounts for its noncontrolling interest in RNK Health in accordance with ASC Topic 810-10-45, which requires the Company to present noncontrolling interests as a separate component of total shareholders’ equity on the consolidated balance sheets and the consolidated net loss attributable to its noncontrolling interest be clearly identified and presented on the face of the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

Management acknowledges its responsibility for the preparation of the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements which reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring and non-recurring adjustments, considered necessary in its opinion for a fair statement of its financial position and the results of its operations for the periods presented.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (the “U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions Article 8-03 of Regulation S-X. Operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the fiscal year as a whole. Certain information and note disclosure normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP has been condensed or omitted from these statements pursuant to such accounting principles and, accordingly, they do not include all the information and notes necessary for comprehensive financial statements. These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the summary of significant accounting policies and notes to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 28, 2025.

Liquidity

Liquidity

Liquidity is the ability of a company to generate funds to support its current and future operations, satisfy its obligations, and otherwise operate on an ongoing basis. On June 30, 2025, the Company had a cash balance of $1,718,964, had short-term investments of $12,326,666, and had working capital of $13,992,440. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company used net cash in operations of $2,014,345. Until such time that the Company implements its growth strategy, it expects to continue to generate operating losses in the foreseeable future, mostly due to corporate overhead, research and development, and costs of being a public company. The Company believes that its existing working capital and cash on hand will provide sufficient cash to enable the Company to meet its operating needs and debt requirements for the next twelve months from the issuance date of this report. 

Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates in the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the valuation of investments, valuation of intangible assets and other long-lived assets, the valuation of common shares issued to purchase intangible assets, estimates of deferred tax valuation allowances and the fair value of stock options issued for services.

Fair Value Measurements and Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair Value Measurements and Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company analyzes all financial instruments with features of both liabilities and equity under the Financial Accounting Standard Board’s (the “FASB”) accounting standard for such instruments. Under this standard, financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company identified the following assets or liabilities that are required to be presented on the balance sheet at fair value in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 820.

The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

  Level 1 - Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities available at the measurement date.
     
  Level 2 - Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable, and inputs derived from or corroborated by observable market data.
     
  Level 3 - Inputs are unobservable inputs which reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions on what assumptions the market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best available information.

The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets for cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other current assets, accounts payable, and accrued expenses approximate their fair market value based on the short-term maturity of these instruments. 

The following table represents the Company’s fair value hierarchy of its financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

   June 30, 2025   December 31, 2024

On June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, equity securities, at fair value, consisted of 666,660 shares of common equity securities of one entity, RPM Interactive, Inc., a security without a readily determinable fair value. On May 16, 2024, the Company purchased 666,660 common shares of RPM Interactive, Inc. for $199,998.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and Cash Equivalents

For purposes of the consolidated statements of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid instruments with a maturity of three months or less at the purchase date and money market accounts to be cash equivalents. The Company has no cash equivalents as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

The Company’s cash is held at major commercial banks, which may at times exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) limit. To date, the Company has not experienced any losses on its invested cash. Any loss incurred or a lack of access to such funds could have a significant adverse impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.

On June 30, 2025, the Company had approximately $1,184,813 of cash in excess of FDIC limits of $250,000.

Accounts receivable

Accounts receivable

The Company adopted ASC 326, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses” on January 1, 2023 and recognizes an allowance for losses on accounts receivable in an amount equal to the estimated probable losses net of recoveries under the current expected credit loss method. The allowance is based on an analysis of historical credit loss experience, current receivables aging, and expected future write-offs, as well as an assessment of specific identifiable customer accounts considered at risk or uncollectible. The credit loss expense associated with the allowance for doubtful accounts related to accounts receivable is recognized in general and administrative expenses. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, accounts receivable amounted to $9,368 and $0, respectively, and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company did not recognize any credit losses.

Short-Term Investments

Short-Term Investments

The Company’s portfolio of short-term investments consists of marketable debt securities which are comprised of rated U.S. government securities, and corporate bonds with maturities of more than three months, but less than one year, and exchange-traded and closed end funds. The Company classifies these as available-for-sale at purchase date and will reevaluate such designation at each period end date. The Company may sell these marketable debt and equity securities prior to their stated maturities depending upon changing liquidity requirements. The debt securities are classified as current assets in the unaudited consolidated balance sheets and recorded at fair value, with unrealized gains or losses included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) on the consolidated balance sheets and as a component of the consolidated statements of comprehensive loss. The equity securities are classified as current assets in the unaudited consolidated balance sheets and recorded at fair value, with unrealized gains or losses included in other income (expense) on the unaudited consolidated statement of operation and comprehensive loss. Gains and losses are recognized when realized. Gains and losses are determined using the specific identification method and are reported in other income (expense), net in the unaudited consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

An impairment loss may be recognized when the decline in fair value of the debt securities is determined to be other-than-temporary. The Company evaluates its investments for other-than-temporary declines in fair value below the cost-basis each quarter, or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the cost basis of the short-term investments may not be recoverable. The evaluation is based on a number of factors, including the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been below the cost basis, as well as adverse conditions related specifically to the security, such as any changes to the credit rating of the security and the intent to sell or whether the Company will more likely than not be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis.

The Company recorded $16,692 and $(92,370) of unrealized gain (loss) on short-term investments as a component of other comprehensive loss for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company recognized a realized gain on sale of short-term investments of $14,050 and $119,715, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company recognized an unrealized gain on short-term investments of $8,615 and $0, respectively.

Investment in Equity Securities, at Fair Value

Investment in Equity Securities, at Fair Value

Equity investments are carried at fair value with unrealized gains or losses which are recorded as net unrealized gain (loss) on equity investments in the accompanying unaudited consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss. Realized gains and losses are determined on a specific identification basis which is recorded in earnings or loss as a net realized gain (loss) on equity investments in the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss. The Company reviews investments in equity securities, at fair value, for impairment whenever circumstances and situations change such that there is an indication that the carrying amounts may not be recovered.

Accounting for Digital Currencies and Other Digital Assets

Accounting for Digital Currencies and Other Digital Assets

The Company accounts for digital currencies and other digital assets as indefinite-lived intangible assets and accounts for them at historical cost in accordance with ASC 350, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other Indefinite-lived intangible assets are not subject to amortization but rather evaluated for impairment annually and more frequently, if events or circumstances change that indicate that it is more likely than not that the asset is impaired (i.e., if an impairment indicator exists). As a result, the Company only recognizes decreases in the value of its digital currencies and other digital assets, and any increase in value will be recognized only upon disposition. The Company plans to dispose of cryptocurrency received as a form of payment into fiat currency and anticipates ownership of cryptocurrency to be minimal. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company’s digital currencies consisted of 52.78 units of Polygon (MATIC), an Ethereum token valued at $37 and $37, respectively. 

Property and Equipment

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost and are depreciated using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. When assets are retired or disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and any resulting gains or losses are included in income in the year of disposition. The Company examines the possibility of decreases in the value of these assets when events or changes in circumstances reflect the fact that their recorded value may not be recoverable.

Property and equipment includes capitalized internal-use software development costs. Costs incurred to develop internal-use software, including game development, are expensed as incurred during the preliminary project stage. Internal-use software development costs are capitalized during the application development stage, which is after: (i) the preliminary project stage is completed; and (ii) management authorizes and commits to funding the project and it is probable the project will be completed and used to perform the intended function. Capitalization ceases at the point where the software project is substantially complete and ready for its intended use, and after all substantial testing is completed. Upgrades and enhancements are capitalized if it is probable that those expenditures will result in additional functionality. Amortization is provided for on a straight-line basis over the expected useful life of the internal-use software development costs and related upgrades and enhancements, which currently is three years. When existing software is replaced with new software, the unamortized costs of the old software are expensed when the new software is ready for its intended use. 

Intangible Assets

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets, consisting of acquired software licenses, technology licenses and acquired software, are carried at cost less accumulated amortization, computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of 5 years, less any impairment charges.

Stock-based Compensation

Stock-based Compensation

Stock-based compensation is accounted for based on the requirements of ASC 718 – “Compensation–Stock Compensation”, which requires recognition in the financial statements of the cost of employee, non-employee and director services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments over the period the employee or director is required to perform the services in exchange for the award (presumptively, the vesting period). The ASC also requires measurement of the cost of employee and director services received in exchange for an award based on the grant-date fair value of the award. The Company has elected to account for forfeitures as they occur.

Income Taxes

Income Taxes

Deferred income taxes are provided using the liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards, and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of the changes in tax laws and rates of the date of enactment.

When tax returns are filed, it is highly certain that some positions taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, while others are subject to uncertainty about the merits of the position taken or the amount of the position that would be ultimately sustained. The benefit of a tax position is recognized in the financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions. Tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of the benefits associated with tax positions taken that exceed the amount measured as described above is reflected as a liability for unrecognized tax benefits in the accompanying balance sheets along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination. Applicable interest and penalties associated with unrecognized tax benefits are classified as additional income taxes in the consolidated statements of operations. 

Revenue Recognition

Revenue Recognition

The Company follows Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”). This standard establishes a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers. ASC 606 requires an entity to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services and requires certain additional disclosures.

In accordance with ASU Topic 606 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers, the Company recognizes revenue in accordance with that core principle by applying the following steps:

Step 1: Identify the contract(s) with a customer.

Step 2: Identify the performance obligations in the contract.

Step 3: Determine the transaction price.

Step 4: Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract.

Step 5: Recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation.

The Company plans to generate revenue from the following sources:

  The Company generates revenue from the sale of our in-game items to our customers. Revenue generated from such sales, primarily through the app stores, such as Google Play Store or Apple App Store, is recognized upon delivery of the in-game items to the customer, which is when the Company completes its sole performance obligation. Fees incurred by the Company, such as commissions to the app stores, are recognized in operating expenses. During the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, revenues from the sale of our in-game items amounted to $18 and $0, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, revenues from the sale of our in-game items amounted to $23 and $19, respectively.
     
  The Company generates revenue from the sale of health coaching packages to its customers. Health coaching packages consist of a series of lab tests and personal health coaching sessions. Revenues generated from such sales are recognized upon the completion of lab testing and the utilization of health coaching sessions, which is when the Company completes its performance obligation. Any fees paid in advance by the customer are reflected as a contract liabilities until such time as the performance obligation is completed. Fees incurred by the Company, such as the lab testing charges, are recognized in operating expenses. During the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, revenue from the sale of health coaching packages amounted to $1,124 and $0, respectively. During the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, revenue from the sale of health coaching packages amounted to $0 and $0, respectively.
Gaxos Labs sells subscriptions to its customers for the use of its software under a software as a service subscription model (“SaaS”), which will allow game developers and publishers to create content using AI which reduce creative asset development time. The Company’s SaaS offerings shall be sold under a prepaid or postpaid, usage-based pricing system pursuant to a tiers model, allowing customers to choose the subscription level to be charged based upon their intended usage. The subscription tiers will utilize declining prices as the volume grows. Under prepaid pay-as-you-go plans, revenues related to contracts that do not include a specified contract period are recognized upon usage by the customer and satisfaction of the Company’s performance obligation. These usage-based revenues are constrained to the amount the Company expects to be entitled to and receive in exchange for providing access to its platform. If professional services are deemed to be distinct, revenue is recognized as services are performed. The Company does not view the signing of the contract or the provision of initial setup services as discrete earnings events that are distinct. During the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, revenue from the sale of subscriptions amounted to $556 and $0, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, revenue from the sale of subscriptions amounted to $607 and $0, respectively.
In connection with RNK Health, the Company is generating revenues from providing non-clinical administrative services to support patient health. RNK Health has partnered with a third-party medical management company (the “Medical Partner”) that provides medication management and patient support care services via telehealth to patients located in all 50 states. The Medical Partner provides and makes available health care professionals to perform telehealth services within their respective scope of practice, provides and maintains applicable professional licensure, provides medication management services and provides RNK Health and patients access to the Medical Partner’s telehealth optimized technology platform. RNK Health provides services to patients to support the delivery of various medical services, including virtual rooming of patients, patient pathway advisory services, patient scheduling and interface connected to the Medical Partners central calendar, patient pathway monitoring and service, nonclinical patient customer service, care navigation service, software-based care optimization services, patient education services, patient intake system and data collection (the “Administrative Services”). The Company evaluates the presentation of revenue on a gross vs. net basis based on whether it acts as a principal by controlling the product or service sales to customers. The Company records these revenues on a gross basis since the Company is obligated to fulfill the non-clinical administrative services and has the risk associated with service delivery. Revenues from these fees are recognized upon satisfaction of the performance obligation. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, revenues from Administrative Services amounted to $170,398 and $192,950 respectively. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, revenues from Administrative Services amounted to $0. RNK Health pays a monthly fee to the Medical Partner for access to the Medical Partners telehealth optimized technology platform, which is included in operating expenses on the accompanying unaudited consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
The Company plans to generate revenue from advertising fees paid by game advertisers, developers, hardware companies, or other strategic partners to the Company for promotion on our platform. Revenues from these fees will be recognized ratably over the agreed-upon advertising service period and upon delivery of agreed-upon advertising services, which constitutes satisfaction of the performance obligation. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company did not generate revenues fees from advertising fees.
The Company plans to generate royalty revenues when a third party sells one of our NFTs on a third-party platform. We will recognize royalty revenue when it is probable that we will collect the royalty fee owed which is typically when we receive notification from the third-party platform that an NFT has been sold, which constitutes satisfaction of the performance obligation. In the instance where the Company will receive royalty payments when a customer disposes of an in-game NFT in the secondary market on a third-party platform or any other payment that is not in fiat currency, the Company will recognize the revenue in accordance with ASC 606-10-32-21, “Noncash Consideration”. The fair value of the non-cash consideration received shall be determined by using the quoted price for such non-cash consideration on the date of the transaction. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company did not generate revenues fees from royalties.
Research and Development

Research and Development

Research and development costs incurred in the development of the Company’s products are expensed as incurred and include costs such as labor and outside development costs, software license fees, materials, and other allocated costs incurred.

Net Loss per Share

Net Loss per Share

The Company computes net loss per share in accordance with ASC 260-10, “Earnings Per Share.” The basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net loss per share gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the “as if converted” basis.

Pursuant to ASC 260-10-45, basic loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period presented. Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock, common stock equivalents and potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the period.

For the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, the following common stock equivalents were excluded from the computation of diluted shares outstanding as they would have had an anti-dilutive impact on the Company’s net loss.

   June 30, 
   2025   2024 
Common stock equivalents:        
Warrants   4,509,259    1,743,352 
Stock options   139,084    57,084 
Total   4,648,343    1,800,436 
Noncontrolling Interests

Noncontrolling Interests

The Company follows ASC Topic 810, “Consolidation,” governing the accounting for and reporting of noncontrolling interests (“NCI”) in its partially owned consolidated subsidiary. Certain provisions of this standard indicate, among other things, that NCI be treated as a separate component of equity, not as a liability, that increases and decreases in the parent’s ownership interest that leave control intact be treated as equity transactions rather than as step acquisitions or dilution gains or losses, and that losses of a partially-owned consolidated subsidiary be allocated to noncontrolling interests even when such allocation might result in a deficit balance. The net loss attributed to NCI was separately designated in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Losses attributable to NCI in a subsidiary may exceed a NCI’s interests in the subsidiary’s equity. The excess attributable to NCI is attributed to those interests. NCI shall continue to be attributed to their share of losses even if that attribution results in a deficit NCI balance. 

Segment Reporting

Segment Reporting

The Company operates as a single operating segment technology-based company that is developing applications aimed at redefining the way we utilize artificial intelligence (“AI”) to optimize the user experience. In accordance with ASC 280 – “Segment Reporting”, the Company’s chief operating decision maker has been identified as the Chief Executive Officer, who reviews operating results to make decisions about allocating resources and assessing performance for the entire Company. Existing guidance, which is based on a management approach to segment reporting, establishes requirements to report selected segment information quarterly and to report annually entity-wide disclosures about products and services, major customers, and the countries in which the entity holds material assets and reports revenue. All material operating units qualify for aggregation under “Segment Reporting” due to their similarities in economic characteristics such as nature of services; and procurement processes. Since the Company operates in one segment, all financial information required by “Segment Reporting” can be found in the accompanying unaudited consolidated balance sheets and unaudited consolidated statements of operations and notes to consolidated financial statements.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40), which requires entities to provide more detailed disaggregation of expenses in the income statement, focusing on the nature of the expenses rather than their function. The new disclosures will require entities to separately present expenses for significant line items, including but not limited to, depreciation, amortization, and employee compensation. Entities will also be required to provide a qualitative description of the amounts remaining in relevant expense captions that are not separately disaggregated quantitatively, disclose the total amount of selling expenses and, in annual reporting periods, provide a definition of what constitutes selling expenses. This pronouncement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of this new guidance to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements. 

Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.
