Company mission

To create a universe where our digital selves can freely live, play and prosper.

Our take

Vana is building a decentralized ecosystem that makes it easier for people to own and give access to their data, opening new experiences within the digital Web3 world. Each person creates more virtual data every day, through Vana, users can take their “VNA” (virtual DNA) and unlock personalized, bespoke AI experiences through the company’s range of products.

Creativity is at the heart of the company, enabling users to turn their data into something creative, bringing life to our digital selves. Its current three products are Vana Portrait (a generative AI experience that allows users to train their AI model to create portraits), Vana Studio (uses Portrait AI Model to create endless portraits in any style), and GPT-me (which trains the AI models to talk and respond just how the user would).

The company’s innovative personalized AI technology has seemingly endless creative potential. Vana certainly has vast expansion opportunities ahead.
