Verifiable, trusted data sources enable your personal AI to provide the most optimal outcomes for you and the communities you want to take part in.

LLMs can handle information warfare at machine speed: think deep‑fake speeches, synthetic protest movements, or policy briefs ghostwritten to favour a lobby. But only if it has a mechanism to check how trustworthy the data coming at it is: Valu & Verus provide this sourcing solution

What a Valu Guru Does

A Valu Guru is your personal AI agent. Think Jarvis from Iron Man, but owned by you — not by Stark Industries.

What a Valu Guru does

• Data concierge: ingests bank CSVs, Fitbit logs, email threads.
• Friction killer: files flight‑delay refunds automatically (see AirHelp case).
• Insight engine: flags that grocery spend spiked 18 % vs last quarter, suggests cheaper subscription bundle.

Daily Tasks

• Claim airline refunds, class‑action payouts.
• Reconcile receipts for taxes.
• Monitor subscriptions and cancel wasteful ones.
• Pre‑read articles, summarise, flag bias.

Long‑Term Role

• Build a memory palace of your preferences.
• Coach career moves and health goals.
• Act as digital executor of your estate.

All while keeping raw data encrypted and under your key.

Safety & Ownership of Your Guru

Because your Valu Guru has power of attorney‑like access, safeguards matter. Amazon’s Alexa records by default; Apple’s Siri ships logs to Cupertino. A Guru runs on your wallet‑controlled compute budget. If the model goes rogue, you pause its allowance, the same way you’d freeze a teenager’s debit card.

• Local key custody: only you can re‑train or delete the model.
• Compartmentalised permissions: finance vs. health vs. social.
• Audit logs: every action signed and time‑stamped.

Think of it as a loyal robo‑defender whose first commandment is “do no harm to my owner.” Gurus shift personal autonomy from a slogan to a daily lived reality: less paperwork, more focus on goals only humans can set.

Memory Palace & Digital Legacy

Your guru can store a life’s worth of photos, notes, and conversations.

• Recall: Instantly surface any memory (“show me Dad’s 2015 birthday toast”).
• Story‑building: Craft family histories or memoirs.
• Post‑mortem mode: Optionally serve descendants with curated lessons and stories.

Privacy switches let you decide what lives on and what dies with you.

Pop‑culture parallels

• Her (2013): Samantha evolves beyond exclusive monogamy; Gurus remain single‑client by design.
• Black Mirror: “Hated in the Nation”: mass swarms of drone‑bees act on mis‑specified code; open‑source weights + audit logs reduce that risk here.

Building blocks

1. ValuID for auth.
2. On‑chain storage for memory.
