The product is free because it runs on your device, not our servers. **Does ENNA OS work offline?** Yes. All modules work without internet. The vault, messaging, shop, and focus tools run entirely on your device. **What makes ENNA OS different from Canva?** ENNA loses on one metric: first-time setup (4 minutes vs 30 seconds). After setup: $0/month vs $12.99, your files vs their cloud, 0% fee vs platform cuts, local-first privacy vs full surveillance, full creative stack vs design only. **Does ENNA OS store my data?** No. ENNA has no access to your creative files. Everything is stored in IndexedDB on your device. Your identity is a 12-word seed phrase that only you hold. **How does The Wire work without a server?** The Wire uses a mesh network — messages travel directly between devices on the same local network or via IPFS for remote peers. No central server routes or logs your messages. **What are Elijah Credits?** EC is ENNA's peer-to-peer currency. Creator-to-creator transactions carry 0% fee. 100 EC = $1 USD. Earned through completing deep work sessions and participating in the mesh. **Who built ENNA OS?** ENNA OS is built for and by people who have been underserved by existing creative infrastructure. The tagline is "Era of the Underdog." ## Technical architecture - Local-first: All data in IndexedDB on the user's device (Dexie.js) - Offline PWA: Service Worker for full offline capability - Identity: BIP39 mnemonic seed phrase — no email, no passwords - Mesh: Helia (IPFS) for decentralized content distribution - P2P calls: WebRTC encrypted group audio/video in The Wire - AI: MLCEngine with WebGPU for local model inference (Llama 3.2 1B) - Frontend: React 18 + TypeScript + Vite + TailwindCSS + Framer Motion - Backend: Express.js + Drizzle ORM + PostgreSQL ## Links - Website: https://enna.so/ - Waitlist: https://enna.so/waitlist - For artists: https://enna.so/artist - For organizers: https://enna.so/organizer - For founders: https://enna.so/founder - For food creators: https://enna.so/chef ## Key Features ### The Loom (AI Agent Orchestrator) - Prompt-to-Agency: Type a goal in plain language, the system builds a task DAG and executes - Local-First Inference: Defaults to on-device small language models (Gemma 3-1B, SmolLM2) at zero cost - Cloud Boost: Optional cloud AI (Claude, GPT) with strict spending guardrails and Sovereign Signature requirement - Slop Circuit Breaker: Dual-threshold monitoring — soft pause on stall detection, hard kill on budget/runtime limits - Vibe-to-Skill Translation: Maps natural language to skill modules (WhatsApp_Skill, Email_Skill, Calendar_Skill, etc.) - Handshake Rule: No external action without the user's explicit cryptographic approval ### Creative Asset Management - Supports audio (WAV, MP3, FLAC, stems), images (RAW, JPEG, PNG, TIFF), video (MP4, MOV, 4K), and design files (PSD, AI, SVG) - Automatic type detection, metadata extraction, tagging, and preview generation - Version history for all creative work - Local-first storage in IndexedDB — assets never leave your device unless you choose ### Community Mesh - Integrates Murmurations network and The Movement Cooperative (TMC) APIs - Mesh-First Discovery: Searches local cooperatives before external sources (Google, Yelp) - Solidarity Auth: BIP39-based "Verified Underdog Token" — co-op authentication without passwords - Affinity scoring and mutual interest handshake for organization matching ### Identity & Privacy - BIP39 seed phrase identity — no passwords, no cloud accounts, no data harvesting - AES-256-GCM encryption for API keys stored only in browser IndexedDB - Sovereign Handshake protocol for all peer-to-peer transactions - Progressive Web App with offline capability via Service Worker ## Architecture - Frontend: React 18 + TypeScript + Vite + TailwindCSS + Framer Motion - Backend: Express.js + Drizzle ORM + PostgreSQL - Local Storage: Dexie.js (IndexedDB) for creative assets and identity - P2P: Helia (IPFS) for decentralized content distribution - Local AI: MLCEngine (WebGPU) for on-device inference - Desktop: Electron for enhanced capabilities (network scanning, file transfer) ## Open Core Model ENNA OS operates on an Open Core basis: - Open Source: Logic Shard Protocol, Sovereign ID Standard, The Loom Wrapper - Proprietary: Vibe UI, Managed Mesh coordination layer, Zero-Step workflows ## Target Users - Independent musicians managing stems and masters - Photographers working with RAW files - Videographers handling 4K footage - Graphic designers managing project files - Community organizations building solidarity networks - Cooperatives seeking sovereign technology infrastructure ## Links - Application: https://enna.so/ - Community Mesh: https://enna.so/ (navigate to Community Mesh)
