Edge AI From
The Source
Run AI where your data lives: on-device or across distributed environments. Transform your application’s device infrastructure to an intelligent, collaborative mesh.
Source is the most effective tooling for verifiable, trustless, data-centric AI entirely on clients:
- Cryptographically verifiable data provenance
- Peer-to-peer model sharing, no cloud required
- Idempotent, on-device compute via WebAssembly lenses
- Deploys on virtually any hardware, with native binary and WASM compilation
Verifiable Data Provenance
Every field is tracked by Merkle-CRDTs, providing an immutable, content-addressed audit trail that proves exactly where data came from and how it has been transformed.
- Immutable field-level history
- Self-verifying content addressing
- Instant rollback or replay
Distribute Trust to the Edge
A transparency-log-based trust network extends trust between devices and cryptographically verifies authorization state.
- Device-originated identity and authentication
- Mesh-friendly topology, online or offline
- No reliance on a private cloud
Compute-Over-Data with LensVM
WebAssembly lenses enable versioned, idempotent transforms for inference, training or ETL entirely on the client.
- Data-centric compute bound to your data model
- Multi-language lenses (Go, Rust, Python, etc.)
- Trigger by events or on demand
Field-Level Access Control & Audit
Zanzibar-style policies attach directly to data objects, down to individual fields, so permissions and audit logs travel with the data without any external calls.
- Sub-field least-privilege enforcement
- On-device anchoring for compliance
- Zero runtime callbacks to central services
Peer-to-Peer Federated Learning
Built on DefraDB’s native pub/sub and LensVM aggregation, models flow directly among devices with no servers, no vendor lock-in, and minimal latency, and minimal latency.
- Serverless, mesh-based FL
- On-device aggregation via lenses
- Dynamic peer seeding
End-to-End Encrypted Collaboration
Orbis Secret Rings use distributed multi-party proxy re-encryption so you share keys and data only with authorized peers.
- Decentralized group key management
- Trust-minimized data sharing
- Client-side decryption only for permitted data
Adaptive Data-Format Interoperability
Content-addressable storage plus lens-driven adapters handle any format – JSON, Protobuf, CSV, blobs – seamlessly piping data into local AI pipelines.
- Universal lens adapters with no custom parsers
- Composable transforms for mixed sources
- Native integration into client workflows
