Vaultage
Power trust by securing critical data on-chain
Create strong customer relationships built on trust and privacy. With Akord vaults, invite others, upload files, message, create notes and share through a built-in media viewer. All content is end-to-end encrypted and stored permanently on-chain.




WITH akords vaults
Permanent data, permanently accessible
Akord is built on a permanent data storage blockchain that guarantees data is accessible for at least 200 years. Data is owned by whoever uploads data to the network, and can be retrieved at any point within seconds. We provide a seamless user experience for accessing the power of this novel technology.
Protecting privacy is your competitive advantage
It's time to ditch email and centralised cloud services when it comes to handling sensitive data. Frequent headlines of data breaches, leaks and hacks attest to how inherently insecure these services are. With Akord, all data is end-to-end encrypted and you or your customer own the keys.
Build trust, earn loyalty, increase revenue.
Turn customers into champions. By protecting privacy and empowering data ownership, you can earn loyalty that will decrease churn and boost viral growth. Consumers are more likely to pay a premium for products they trust.

FAQ
The Arweave blockchain is designed to store data in perpetuity. Through an endowment, which your storage payment goes towards, it can continue to pay miners in the network to preserve your data indefinitely. As Sam Williams, founder of Arweave, says:
"[Arweave is] a new type of storage that backs data with sustainable and perpetual endowments, allowing users and developers to truly store data forever – for the very first time."
We are currently building a fully decentralised app, deployed directly on Arweave: Akord Explorer.
Explorer will be able to find any data you sent to Arweave through Akord.
In practical terms, this means once the app itself is deployed on Arweave it will also be permanently available. Indeed every release of the app would be available as well.
So even if Akord, the company, stops working on the development of the app, Akord Explorer itself will continue to live on the permaweb.
You will be able to connect to Akord Explorer with your normal Akord app login details and find all your uploads.
Not necessarily.
With the airdrop access feature you can decide to invite people with a one click magic link sent to their email, which once clicked will send them straight into the vault.
You can add a layer of security to this workflow by asking that they create a password to protect their keys on first trying to connect to the vault. This would prevent that magic link being a vulnerability should their email get hacked in the future.
Yes, absolutely.
White labelling is a feature that's part of the Enterprise pricing tier. If you're a SMB and this all you need from the Enterprise tier, contact us and we can factor this into pricing that will work for you.
We're working on it!
The feature will enable people with a specific token to register on a whitelist. This list can then be used to manage access to an Akord vault.
If this is something you're interested in, then please reach contact us so we can keep you up-to-date with the progress and launch of token-gated access.
You cannot delete files from the Arweave blockchain. This would be in opposition to its core mission of providing perpetual access – a truly permanent storage system.
However, included in the Arweave protocol standards is ANS-106: Do-Not-Store Request, which provides a protocol and transaction format to make a request to miners to not store data. As outlined:
"There might be various reasons why persons or entities might wish to remove some data from the network. These include privacy, government regulation and copyright violations."
Within Akord, you can 'Revoke files', which moves them from your 'Files' tab in a vault into a separate "Revoked files" area. This would prevent anyone from renaming, moving, downloading or viewing the file.
The file would continue to exist on the Arweave blockchain, but completely encrypted and essentially useless. Still, once a file is uploaded, regardless of whether it's revoked, it will continue to use your storage allowance.
Always carefully consider the nature of permanent storage before uploading files, as not all data will be suitable.
YES!
Your payment goes into a storage endowment. It's like the principle upon which the interest goes towards paying the future storage of your data. Indefinitely.

To break it down into what this means in a very practical way: if you have 1 GB of storage on Akord and you upload 1 GB's worth of photos, you never have to pay again to keep those photos on Akord and on the Arweave blockchain. Even if you don't login to Akord for many many years, that data will be preserved and waiting for you.
No, you don't need the $AR coin to pay for storage in Akord. We take care of making the $AR payment to the network behind the scenes.
You also get 500 MB free to try out Akord and make your first uploads to Arweave on us.
We use Stripe as a credit card payment provider, who also support Apple pay and Google pay.
We plan on integrating third party wallets, so if you do hold $AR in a crypto wallet it will be possible to use this directly on Akord.
