Assistants shipped by the largest platforms only work inside their own walls, and the memory they build never leaves 🧠
$ROSE pioneered confidential compute so records stay usable without being exposed to whoever runs the machine. $NEAR built account infrastructure that lets one identity move across applications without a new login.
Privacy is solved. Identity is solved. But what an assistant learns about someone over a year of daily use belongs to the company that shipped it, and export means a text file at best. A better model arrives and the teaching starts again. Memory became the moat.
Memory held by the person it describes, granted per app and revocable at any time, commits that moat to users on Vana.
