One massive AMA. Two founders. Plenty to unpack.🔥
Dan & Alvis went deep on owning your AI, YveChat Engine, local models, agent permissions and the roadmap ahead.
The community brought the questions. Here's the recap if you missed it! https://t.co/XQzQcuqeKN
Your AI identity can live under your signature.
YveChat supports optional wallet authentication alongside local accounts.
A wallet signature can become the identity boundary, with its own explicit trade-off: signature identity has no recovery path.
The sovereignty boundary moves when you search the web.
Local inference can remain on-device. External search deliberately crosses that boundary.
YveChat makes those exits visible instead of hiding them. https://t.co/EFqpVIzbi7
Your workspace should outlive your model choice.
YveChat's normalization layer is built around runtimes as peers: Ollama today, OpenAI-compatible endpoints experimentally, with broader hosted-provider support planned.
Your AI history may become one of your most valuable digital assets.
Prompts, research, decisions and years of context reveal how we think.
Founder Dan Leong explains why the principle crypto taught us about custody is coming for intelligence. https://t.co/vfTfFvPHBG
Four layers. Four things you hold.
Compute through Ollama and ComfyUI. Data on your disk. Access through approved pairing. Identity through a local account or optional wallet signature.
Sovereignty becomes architecture.
Owning an AI workspace means owning more than the chat log.
Compute. Data. Access. Identity.
YveChat places each layer under user control, from local runtimes and SQLite storage to pairing and signature-based identity.
Local AI comes with real limits.
Ollama defaults to 4096-token context. Memory rises with context and parallelism. GPU support depends on drivers. Frontier parity remains ahead.

The cleanest API key is no API key.
Choose an Ollama model in YveChat and inference runs on your hardware.
The prompt stays local. The model stays local. Provider credentials disappear from the equation.
Follow a local prompt from start to finish.
Workspace → YveChat Engine → Ollama → Engine → Workspace.
The thread then persists to SQLite on your disk. The thinking and the record stay within infrastructure you control.
Your AI workspace just moved closer to home.
YveChat Developer Preview brings local models, local compute and local conversation storage into one sovereign workspace.
The working foundation is here. https://t.co/Ytw7IRVGg0
Your keys changed what ownership meant for money.
AI creates another asset worth holding: the accumulated record of your reasoning.
YveChat extends self-custody from value to intelligence.
Sovereignty should survive the Network tab.
Local inference gives you something stronger than a privacy promise: observable traffic.
Inspect the architecture yourself.

Inference should cost what inference costs.
YveChat takes zero margin on model inference, permanently.
Run locally or pay your chosen provider directly. Software, tooling and network participation fund the system.
A sovereign AI workspace needs something running on your machine.
YveChat Engine bridges the browser to local runtimes, secrets, tools and storage.
Your computer becomes the operational boundary.
Your AI history knows more about you every day.
Prompts, drafts, research and unfinished ideas accumulate into a record of how you think.
YveChat puts custody of that record on infrastructure you control.
