Ocean Protocol

We are using Ocean Protocol technology to create new data driven business models - we call them DataUnions. With our tech stack on top of Ocean Protocol we can create confidential, collaborative data driven business models in many different data verticals. No other technology is on par with what Ocean offers. The DataNFTs are a really, really awesome piece of technology - we use it to connect web2 and web3 effectively. Users authenticate with web3 identities, perform actions on chain, but the web2 APIs can then access this information and perform data interactions at web2 speeds while using web3 trust and immutability e.g. GDPR compliant data business models. Compute-to-data is another component of the Ocean Protocol stack that really combines well with data handling and data usability. As the data does not have to leave its location, completely new data usage of private data is possible.

I have been using ocean protocol for the last 2 years. Things I like: - It is blockchain agnostic, so you are not limited to an L1/L2. Where data and value exchange go, ocean team will deploy there as well. - Its focus is on data monetization and bringing it as an asset class, so anything else around data (storage, compute, modeling, etc) is up to the user to custom best solutions for them and use ocean's stack to tokenize and monetize the data. - It has been the first protocol to start the conversation around data monetizaiton leveraging blockchain. Things I used: - dataNFT: Its just like NFT but you own the data asset which is access controlled using dataNFT. - dataToken: A fungible token to provide wide range of access control for data assets. - Compute2data: A privacy preserving docker where you can compute on data without any 3rd party.

Transport Genie has been using the Ocean stack for a few years now and we have also contributed in the OCEAN DAO. Over the past few years, Transport Genie has experienced tremendous growth in terms of market adoption, customers, revenue, and we have been able to accumulate over 8million transactions and we recently did an AI competition via the Ocean Protocol community which was a huge success. These models that were written may be used with our customers to help them improve transportation outcomes and reduce risk. We are very happy with our experiences so far with the Ocean Community. Ocean has the best development stack in this space and we are well aligned with their mission and vision. I would encourage anyone who is on the fence about using their software to give them a chance and see how you can use their tools to make your business offerings better and future proof. They have great resources and a growing community who are always engaged and willing to onboard new projects.
