Your digital legacy preserved on the permaweb—accessible for generations without ongoing costs.
The permaweb is a decentralized storage network designed for permanence. Instead of renting space from a single provider, your content is distributed across independent nodes worldwide. Pay once, and your archive remains accessible indefinitely. DAL builds on this foundation with encryption, collaboration tools, and guided curation to make your archives meaningful.
Why the permaweb is different from traditional cloud storage
The permaweb was built to solve link rot—the way websites and files disappear over time. These benefits make it ideal for memorials, archives, research, and any story you want to outlive you.
Permanent by design
Your files are stored across a decentralized network of independent nodes. Once your archive is published, it is redundantly replicated and never depends on a single company or server.
Accessible through simple links
Each archive receives a permanent address that resolves to the same content forever, making it easy to reference in tributes, wills, or long-term projects.
Energy-efficient permanence
The permaweb uses efficient consensus models to keep your data available without the massive energy consumption of traditional storage systems.
Transparent pricing, paid once
Pay a one-time storage cost up front. The distributed network invests those fees so that ongoing hosting is covered indefinitely—no recurring subscriptions.
How DAL prepares your archive for permanent storage
You do not need to understand blockchain technology to benefit from it. DAL guides you through three simple steps.
- 1
Bundle your story
Gather photos, letters, PDFs, videos—anything that tells the narrative. DAL organizes them into a single archive ready for permanent storage.
- 2
Secure the archive
Before publishing, choose whether to encrypt. DAL creates a private access token so only the people you invite can unlock the contents.
- 3
Publish once, share forever
DAL submits your archive to permanent decentralized storage, where it receives a permanent address. Share the link anywhere knowing the content will never vanish.
Security and trust built into every archive
The permaweb provides the permanent foundation. DAL layers on modern encryption and access controls so you can share with complete confidence.
Optional end-to-end encryption
Encrypt your files in the browser before uploading. DAL issues invitation tokens that carry the decryption key only for trusted viewers.
Permanent audit trail
Each archive is cryptographically signed. Anyone can verify that what they see is exactly what you published—no edits, no tampering.
Redundant, global storage
Nodes across the world store shards of your archive. If one disappears, the rest keep serving it, ensuring uptime for generations.
The permaweb for everyday storytellers
Our team handles the technical details. Here are the essentials you may want to share with family, clients, or collaborators.
Is the permaweb like a normal cloud drive?
Traditional cloud drives lease storage from a single provider and can delete files if subscriptions lapse. The permaweb is a decentralized network that permanently stores data without ongoing subscriptions or reliance on any single company.
Can I remove something after it is published?
The permaweb is intentionally immutable to ensure permanence. If you need private or revocable sharing, keep your archive encrypted and control access via DAL invitation tokens.
How large can an archive be?
The permaweb accepts very large uploads by bundling data efficiently. DAL handles this process automatically, whether you are storing a single PDF or a comprehensive multimedia memorial.
What if the network goes down?
Because the network is made up of independent nodes spread globally, there is no single point of failure. Multiple nodes store copies of your data, ensuring it remains accessible even if some nodes go offline.
