Problem
Individuals increasingly have limited control over how their personal data is collected, shared, and monetized by centralized platforms, leading to privacy concerns, opaque consent processes, and misaligned incentives between data subjects and data users.
Solution
CitizeAi delivers a citizen‑funded, citizen‑centric data governance platform that enables individuals to collectively own and manage their digital information. The system records consent and usage rights on a tamper‑evident ledger, allowing data subjects to grant, revoke, or monetize access through transparent, rule‑based contracts. Governance decisions are made via a token‑based voting mechanism that reflects the collective preferences of participating citizens. Integrated APIs let third‑party services request data under predefined terms, while compliance reports and audit trails are generated automatically for regulators and auditors. By aligning data value creation with citizen ownership, the platform fosters trust and sustainable data ecosystems.
Target Audience
The primary users are individual citizens and community groups seeking direct control over their personal data, as well as public‑sector agencies and enterprises that require compliant, consent‑driven access to citizen‑generated information.
