Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about VoidAI, Blitz Engine, and our products.

General

What is VoidAI?

VoidAI is a high-performance infrastructure company building tools for distributed AI training and privacy-first applications. Our core technology, Blitz Engine, provides sub-nanosecond Rust primitives that compile to both WASM (for browsers) and native (for servers), enabling the same code to run everywhere.

Why is it called VoidAI?

"Void" represents our philosophy: your data, your compute - not ours. We build infrastructure where your information never touches our servers. "AI" reflects our focus on artificial intelligence infrastructure. And ".wtf" stands for "Way Too Fast" - because that's what our performance benchmarks show.

Is VoidAI open source?

Blitz Engine will be open sourced under MIT license when ready. We are currently in private development. Sign up for updates to be notified when we go public.

How does VoidAI make money if the core is free?

We follow an open core model. Blitz Engine is free and open source. We offer paid products and services including: VoidAI Train (our distributed training network), enterprise support and SLAs, hosted infrastructure for teams who don't want to self-host, and custom integrations for large organizations.

Technical

What programming languages does VoidAI support?

Blitz Engine is written in Rust and compiles to WebAssembly (WASM) for browser environments. We provide official bindings for JavaScript/TypeScript, and community bindings exist for Python, Go, and other languages. The core Rust crates can be used directly in any Rust project.

How does the P2P sync work?

We use WebRTC for direct peer-to-peer connections, with a lightweight signaling server only for initial connection establishment. Data syncs directly between your devices using CRDTs (Conflict-free Replicated Data Types) for automatic conflict resolution. A DHT (Distributed Hash Table) handles peer discovery.

What encryption does VoidAI use?

We use modern, audited cryptographic primitives: X25519 for key exchange, ChaCha20-Poly1305 for symmetric encryption, and Ed25519 for signatures. All data is end-to-end encrypted - we never have access to your encryption keys or unencrypted data.

How does distributed AI training work with VoidAI?

We implement DiLoCo (Distributed Low-Communication Learning), which allows training across heterogeneous, unreliable consumer hardware. Each participant trains locally, then periodically shares compressed gradients with the network. Adaptive compression (10-100x) minimizes bandwidth, and Byzantine fault tolerance handles malicious or faulty nodes.

What are the system requirements?

For browser apps (Notes, Design): Any modern browser with WebRTC and WebAssembly support (Chrome 80+, Firefox 75+, Safari 14+, Edge 80+). For training participation: A GPU with at least 4GB VRAM (NVIDIA, AMD, or Apple Silicon), 8GB RAM, and a stable internet connection.

How do you achieve sub-nanosecond performance?

Through careful systems engineering: zero-copy data structures that avoid memory allocation, cache-aligned memory layouts, SIMD operations where available, lock-free concurrency primitives, and aggressive inlining. We have zero external dependencies in the core primitives, giving us full control over the hot path.

Pricing

Is VoidAI free to use?

Yes, for most use cases. Blitz Engine is free and open source (MIT). VoidAI Notes and Design are free for personal use with no account required. VoidAI Train will have a free tier for individual contributors, with paid tiers for organizations running training jobs.

What's included in the free tier?

Free includes: full access to Blitz Engine (open source), VoidAI Notes (unlimited notes, P2P sync), VoidAI Design (unlimited canvases, collaboration), and community support via GitHub and Discord.

What do paid plans include?

Pro plans ($29/month) include: priority support, advanced analytics, team management, and early access to new features. Enterprise plans include: dedicated support, custom SLAs, on-premise deployment options, and custom integrations.

Security & Privacy

Is my data safe with VoidAI?

Yes, by design. With our P2P architecture, your data never passes through our servers. Everything is end-to-end encrypted with keys only you control. Even if someone compromised our infrastructure, they couldn't access your data because we don't have it.

Has VoidAI been security audited?

Yes. Our cryptographic implementations have been audited by [Audit Firm]. Blitz Engine undergoes continuous security review through our open source community. We also run a bug bounty program for responsible disclosure.

What happens if I lose my device?

Your data is encrypted and synced across your devices. If you lose one device, your data remains on your other devices. For single-device users, we recommend enabling the optional encrypted backup feature, which stores an encrypted copy that only you can decrypt.

Is VoidAI compliant with GDPR/CCPA?

Yes. Because we don't store your data on our servers, there's minimal personal data for us to manage. For the data we do process (account information for paid users), we're fully compliant with GDPR, CCPA, and other privacy regulations.
