Why Vana?
You create the data. You should shape what it builds. The way you move through the world is unique—your habits, your choices, your voice, your rhythm. That uniqueness shows up in your data.
Every scroll. Every song on loop. Every route you take. Every late-night search.
It’s not noise. It’s signal.
It’s your Virtual DNA.
That data already powers the internet. It trains AI, feeds recommendations, drives decisions. It shapes what you see—and how the world sees you.But right now, the value flows one way: out of your hands. Vana is how that changes.
We’re building infrastructure for a world where:
- Your data belongs to you
- You choose when and how it’s used
- You benefit when it creates value
No black boxes. No silent harvesting. Just clear permission, transparent usage, and shared upside. With Vana, your data is stored in a way that you maintain complete control. You decide what it powers—whether that’s a new AI system, collective research, or nothing at all. When you contribute, you earn based on how your data performs. And when AI is built on your data, you help shape where it goes next. Because this isn’t about privacy. It’s about presence. About being part of what your data becomes. AI doesn’t just analyze your behavior—it learns from it. It can write like you. Predict your wants. Speak in your tone. That makes your data powerful. And power deserves agency.
Vana gives you the tools to take that control back:
- Your data stays yours — stored in a way that only you control
- You decide where it goes — and get rewarded when it’s used
- You can join others to co-own and govern entire datasets
- You always see how your data is being used — especially in AI
