Proof

23rd April, 2025

We are faced with subscriptions when we should just own our tools and data. A lot of room can be found for shifting the nexus of trust and control along the technology stack.

Proof is a wide-ranging effort to reimagine personal computing by making the server a first-class citizen of the laptop.

Laptop meets Server

We'll build a laptop with eight "always on" personal services:

  1. Media/File Server
  2. Email/Messaging Server
  3. Blockchain/Decentralization Server
  4. AI-Training/Inference Server
  5. Version-Control/Editor Server
  6. Game/Simulation Server
  7. Secrets/Vault Server
  8. Web/Database Server
