In a world where artificial intelligence is accelerating and personal data is scattered across hundreds of platforms, Vana is empowering people to take back control of their data and shape their digital identity on their own terms. Today, Vana officially launches its native iOS and Android app, a secure gateway for owning and controlling your digital self. Alongside the app, Vana introduces VanaXP, a dynamic reputation and rewards system that recognizes your contributions to the future of AI.
Whether you're a data-curious explorer or a community builder, this app is your front door to the next evolution of digital identity: a world where your data works for you, not the other way around.
What Is the Vana App?
The Vana App is the first of its kind, a mobile ecosystem built to give you full visibility and control over your personal data. It allows you to aggregate data from across platforms, generate your unique VIBE (a digital fingerprint of your online self), and begin participating in a growing ecosystem of community-owned datasets called DataDAOs or Data Collectives
This isn’t just another privacy app, it’s a shift in power. Vana transforms your data into a programmable, personal asset you control, fueling AI, unlocking exclusive rewards, and shaping your digital identity on your terms.
Think of it as the “World App” for your data.
What Is a VIBE?
At the heart of the Vana app is your VIBE, a personalized data identity that reflects your behaviors, preferences, and digital footprint.
From the music you listen to on Spotify, to the conversations you have on Telegram or ChatGPT, your VIBE is a secure, living profile made up of real data you choose to connect. This rich tapestry of data is what makes AI personal, relevant, and human, and with Vana, you’re finally in control of it.
In the future, your VIBE could be the core asset that powers your personalized AI, serves as a passport across platforms, or even earns you tokens and rewards based on your contributions.
Explore Your Digital Self with Vana Vibe Apps
The Vana app also introduces Vana Vibe Apps, a suite of companion apps that help you understand yourself through interacting your data in fun and creative ways.
The Vana Vibe apps transform your digital footprint into interactive experiences, from personalized visualizations and living “vibes,” to real-time insights you can explore and share. It’s a new way to see, play with, and connect through your data, while keeping ownership at the center. VIBE makes your data more than information, it becomes a living reflection of who you are and how you connect with the world.
VanaXP: The Reputation System Fueling the Vana Ecosystem
Launched alongside the app, VanaXP is a community rewards and reputation system designed to recognize meaningful contributions within the ecosystem. XP is more than just a number. It’s your badge of participation, proof of humanity, and a signal of trust within the network.
How Do You Earn XP?
Earning XP is simple, and it’s rooted in genuine community building and data stewardship. Here’s how you can start earning:
- Connect your data: The more verified data sources you connect, the stronger your VIBE becomes—and the more XP you earn.
- Contribute to DataDAOs: Choose to contribute your data to DataDAOs that align with your interests. These are community-governed pools of data used to train better, more diverse AI models.
- Engage in partner communities: Support partner initiatives like V_on_Vana, Vana Korea, or Vana Turkey by contributing your data and participating in challenges. (More regions are coming soon.)
XP grows with your participation, increasing your influence and unlocking greater rewards.
What Does XP Unlock?
VanaXP is designed to build a trusted, thriving data economy. The more XP you earn, the more doors open:
- Exclusive access & referral links: Be the first to access new features, apps, events, and share invite codes with your community.
- Amplified DataDAO rewards: Your XP acts as proof of contribution and proof of humanity, helping DataDAOs and future partners prioritize you for token rewards and data licensing payouts.
- Community recognition & governance: Gain voting rights in leaderboards, challenges, and special campaigns. Your voice matters in how the ecosystem evolves.
- Boosted staking and early Launchpad access (coming soon): Get ahead with higher staking yields and access to upcoming token launches before the public.
Why This Matters Now
Until now, your data has been trapped in the hands of platforms like Facebook, Google, Spotify, & TikTok. They collect and monetize your data while you receive little to nothing in return. Worse, the datasets being used to train AI today are often scraped, shallow, and impersonal.
Vana is changing that by creating a community-owned data layer where users like you decide how your data is used, and get rewarded for participating.
In the age of generative AI, data is capital. Vana makes it possible for individuals to reclaim that capital, own it, and shape how it's used in the next generation of technology.

This exclusivity is intentional. The goal is to build a community-first network where trust, transparency, and contribution matter more than extraction and scale.
Once inside the app, you’ll be able to:
- Connect and manage your data sources
- Explore your VIBE and how your data interacts across platforms
- Join DataDAOs and shape how your data is used

What’s Next?
This launch is just the beginning.
As more users join and DataDAOs expand, the Vana ecosystem will continue to unlock powerful tools and applications, opening new ways to engage with your data.
The future of data ownership isn’t about privacy alone. It’s about value creation, community governance, and the ability to shape your digital life on your terms.
Vana is leading that future. And with the Vana app and VanaXP, you can be part of it from day one.
