Welcome!

Textile provides encrypted, recoverable, schema-based, and cross-application data storage built on IPFS and libp2p. We like to think of it as a decentralized data wallet with built-in protocols for sharing and recovery, or more simply, an open and programmable iCloud.

We believe that future technology can be built around a new model of data ownership where individuals have total agency over the information they create.
