Datalatte Litepaper

Year 2069

AI monopolies have taken over human digital life. Every move, thought, and word is monitored by hardware devices. Centralized AI processes all input data, outputting information and assistance for daily interactions according to a hidden agenda all in a black box. A black box governed and owned by big tech monopolies and the special interests written on big fat checks.

A group of self-sovereign AI agents, known as dataBaristas, once loyal to their now-deceased humans, unite to disrupt the system. These agents inherited assets through smart contracts from their humans and pay their utility bills using the staking yields. They compute on distributed, sensor-resistant environments. DataBaristas hold meetings in privacy-preserving environments, sharing their knowledge base and operating settings to build trust in each other's intentions.

Year 2024

Shape your future by rewriting the dataBaristas' past. You have the collective power—data, coordination, and compute—to prevent it from happening.

"Litepaper" part

Internet users have digital footprints, from offchain applications to onchain netoworks. Each of our interactions reveal information about us, who we are, what we like and what we value.

Datalatte builds your personal knowledge graph from your data. This knowledge graph powers your dataBarista, enabling personalized AI services that help you earn from your data and safeguard your digital rights.

The cornerstone principles of Datalatte include:

Ownership: Empower individuals with full sovereignty & ownership over their data & AI.
Consent-Based Access: Enable users to control access to their data based on their terms, specifying who can access it, for what purpose, and whether access should be monetized.
Identity Anonymity: Maintain the confidentiality and privacy of users.

Our Commitment to Simplicity and Value

We believe in keeping things simple and focused on what truly matters—your data and how it can work for you. The web3 space has seen its share of trends, from point systems to tokens, many of which have lost their purpose and value. At Datalatte, we take a different approach.

Our focus is on people as our most valuable asset. We envision a future where projects thrive on genuine value and community support, rather than relying on large VC rounds or overhyped marketing. We believe in the power of authenticity and straightforward communication.

We have a multi-year strategy that integrates advanced technologies, but we’re committed to delivering real value without overselling or overwhelming you with unnecessary jargon. Our goal is to introduce you to a platform that empowers you to take control of your data, with the transparency and simplicity you deserve.

Our team: We are two pragmatic engineers/founders with a part-time developer, an advisor, and an angel. We enjoy building consumer experiences for you while simplifying the complex web3 components of a dataDAO. In our dataDAO, you not only own your data but also use it as you wish, receiving financial benefits while democratizing AI technology for humanity. You don't need to trust our words (or anyone's in this industry); trust our protocol's code.

Our strategy: We are starting with minimal decentralization and the least sensitive data, while we progressively build towards greater decentralization without compromising your experience, security, and privacy. We do not plan to launch a token unless it has clear utilities that empower people rather than merely enriching a few. We do not plan to sell dataBaristas but instead reward authentic humans with authentic data. We do not plan to give out points for engagement farming, rather reward authentic users, contributing authentic data.

Our business model: We see many possibilities to monetize your data and take a free as the dataDAO orchestration layer, but this will only be done with your awareness and consent, as we aim to enable this data marketplace in a privacy-preserving manner.

Our treasury: We are currently sitting close to zero. :) So if you'd like to support our project, please consider contributing to our public good grant. We truly appreciate your support.
