DS Intelligence is dedicated to building decentralized AI systems that operate entirely offline. INTELLI is the infrastructure, engine, and model behind this vision. Our mission is to put powerful, private, and secure AI directly into the hands of people and businesses, free from the constraints of cloud dependence or data extraction.
We believe AI should strengthen human agency and independence, making intelligence universally accessible and under the user's control. The path is uncertain, but we know this is the right approach to create a new paradigm of decentralized AI-as-a-Service (DaaS) that truly puts people first.
Artificial intelligence has long been a field of surprises. Decades ago, experts believed that cracking tasks like chess would lead us to human-level thinking machines. Instead, each breakthrough revealed how narrow such solutions were. Then came deep learning—systems that mold themselves through data rather than rigid programming—delivering astonishing progress in pattern recognition, translation, and speech. But most modern AI remains bound to the cloud, limited by connectivity, exposing private data, and inaccessible to underserved communities.
At DS Intelligence, we believe intelligence should belong to everyone. That’s why we created INTELLI: infrastructure that brings advanced AI entirely offline, ensuring privacy, security, and sovereignty for all users. We see a future where intelligence isn’t hoarded on distant servers, but runs locally, empowering individuals and organizations to learn, create, and grow on their own terms. It’s a bold path, filled with challenges, but we know it’s the right one—a path that returns control to the people, where it belongs.
AI systems today achieve remarkable but still narrow feats. We expect these boundaries will continue to shrink, and, in time, AI could reach human-level performance across nearly every intellectual domain. It’s hard to truly grasp how much such intelligence could help society—transforming education, healthcare, science, and countless other fields. But it is equally difficult to imagine how deeply it could damage society if designed or deployed without care for privacy, sovereignty, or the common good.
Because of AI’s unpredictable journey, we cannot know exactly when human-level AI will emerge. But when it does, we believe it will be critical to have institutions that put humanity first—championing privacy, data sovereignty, and human agency above corporate profit and cloud dependence.
At DS Intelligence, we are building such an institution. Our mission is to ensure that the future of AI remains in human hands, not locked away in the cloud or controlled by a select few. INTELLI is the engine of this vision: a decentralized, private, and sovereign AI infrastructure that puts power back where it belongs—with people. As we grow, we will share our progress, open our research, and work with those who believe that intelligence should serve everyone, everywhere.
We truly believe that the future of AI does not reside in the cloud, but in the hands of individuals and organizations everywhere.
