What platforms enable with ar.io
Ar.io enables platforms to offer user-owned, permanent data storage — reducing dependency on third-party infrastructure while preserving access, integrity, and control.
Permanent User Access
Users retain continuous access to their data, even as platforms or providers change.
Durable Content Authenticity
Cryptographic provenance enables verifiable authenticity and transparency in the age of AI.
Pay Once, Store Forever
One-time storage removes ongoing fees, renewals, or lock-ins.
Open & Interoperable
Built on open protocols to support portability and long-term compatibility.
When user content needs safekeeping.
User platforms enable people to create valuable apps, content, assets, and data. Yet access and authenticity are often mediated by third-party infrastructure — such as hosting, storage, or verification services — operating outside the platform’s control.
Over time, this exposes platforms and users to access and integrity risk: broken references, inaccessible data, and uncertainty around content origin and ownership, especially as AI-generated and manipulated media increases. Ar.io removes this risk by separating user data access and provenance from infrastructure and vendor dependency.
