WITH AKORD VAULTS
Permanent – decentralised and on-chain
Built on Arweave – a decentralised, on-chain storage network with a pay once, store forever model. Akord protocol sends and verifies all data and logic on Arweave.
Private – E2E encrypted vaults
AkordJS handles all quantum resistant, end-to-end encryption, while making sure private data is encrypted during transmission, processing and storage.
Composable – built to be extended
Akord vaults arrange how members can save, exchange and process data. The protocol is designed for developers to extend.

A versatile toolkit
Vault access controlled by the user’s consent.
Always read your data, even right after posting a transaction.
Containers for verifiable claims and zero knowledge proofs.
Akord protocol allows owners of vaults to invite others within an encrypted context, where members can message and create notes, as well as upload data.
Any transactions dropped by Arweave are automatically reposted, providing a safety net when the network is experiencing issues.
Add custom extensions to create new types of vaults, or take the existing vault structure and embed it in any number of ways to an existing app.
Developer docs
Our protocol and developer tools are open source – there are no obstacles to building permanence and privacy into your apps.
