New Partnership Announcement: Vana and Autonomys Network Partner to Realize a Vision of a Decentralized AI Stack

Vana is pleased to announce a strategic partnership with Autonomys Network, a secure, permanent distributed storage network (DSN) and scalable domain execution layer. This collaboration represents a step forward in realizing a vision of a fully decentralized AI stack, where user ownership and control are foundational.

This partnership aims to advance a comprehensive infrastructure for decentralized AI by integrating Autonomys Network's DSN with Vana's user-owned data ecosystem. This collaboration allows participants on the Vana network, including individuals and DataDAOs, to build and manage AI models in a secure, decentralized environment.

Our partnership is driven by a shared commitment to a digital economy that is built on user sovereignty, transparency, and fairness. In an era where the centralization of AI threatens to concentrate power and control in the hands of a few, it is more important than ever to resist these trends by fostering a decentralized approach. Vana and Autonomys Network are focused on creating a future where data and AI are controlled by those who generate and contribute to them, ensuring a more equitable and open digital ecosystem.

Achieving decentralized AI lies in leveraging all aspects of the AI development stack—from data storage to model execution—to ensure that the future of AI remains in the hands of its users. By working together, we are creating new opportunities for communities and individuals to benefit from their data while upholding transparency, privacy, and user rights.

This partnership underscores the importance of collaboration across the Web3 ecosystem to build a robust, community-driven foundation for AI technologies. We look forward to further developing this partnership with Autonomys Network and will share more details soon.
