Ultra-fast AI inference on the LPU and LPX platform
Custom accelerators designed specifically for inference rather than training, tuned for very low latency.
Hosted access to popular open models including Llama, Mixtral, Gemma, and Whisper speech models.
An API broadly compatible with common OpenAI-style request formats for quick integration.
Automatic speech recognition with Whisper plus text-to-speech capabilities for voice applications.
Open data infrastructure where people own and authorize the data behind AI
People collect data from services they already use through open-source connectors, and that data stays on their own device or encrypted storage they control.
A locally running access engine encrypts data and releases it only against a valid on-chain permission, with every read written to a reviewable access log.
Install @opendatalabs/vana-sdk to request user-approved data, read it from a Personal Server, and settle protocol fees from an app escrow balance.
Groups pool data for privacy-preserving compute jobs, so contributions can be used by AI without exposing raw records.
