📋 What is Nyx?

Nyx is a revolutionary, decentralised application that addresses the principal challenge adopting Generative AI within enterprise: secure, trusted access to domain-specific, contextualised and real-time data.

Nyx brings together communities of proprietary data producers and data consumers in a secure, transparent, and user-friendly environment.

Designed to be effortlessly integrated into AI workflows, Nyx allows you to:

• Leverage the benefits of AI with real time, relevant data
• Experiment rapidly with data within RAG-based Generative AI
• Access relevant, proprietary data for fine-tuning
• Prepare and securely share your data for use within AI applications

Nyx is built upon trusted, secure technology which allows individuals, organisations, communities and siloed departments to interact with agility and confidence.

🤔 Why Nyx?

As a data producer you can:

1. Maintain full control over where your data is stored and how it is accessed. Nyx does not centralize or store your data, but ensures it is easily discoverable.
2. Enable your data to be AI-ready and elevate the value of your data team/function.
3. Use intuitive publishing tools through the no-code Nyx UI or seamlessly integrate with existing systems via the Nyx SDK.
4. Keep governance and control over who can discover and access your data.

As an application builder you can:

1. Use a single point of interface for accessing relevant, proprietary data across your community.
2. Access real-time, trusted data on which to build impactful AI-enabled services or products, not available via general intelligence models.
3. A super simple Nyx SDK enabling rapid integration of RAG with the industry’s best AI models.
4. Ensure that data veracity and compliance is maintained.

Why is Nyx Different from other data products?

Think about some of the challenges you encounter every day in the delivery of data products and services to your organisation. You’re likely to have experienced some of these:

• Access to data: Most data sources are stuck behind access points with only primitive access controls. This requires data owners to relinquish control through provisioning of user accounts to third parties, or to physically expose data assets externally, in order to enable sharing. This is unscalable in today’s Generative AI world, where timely contextual data unlocks a universe of possibilities. Nyx provides a truly self-sovereign data sharing capability where each participant only ever interacts with their own Nyx instance - there’s never any sharing of infrastructure, system access, or user accounts.
• Pipeline spaghetti: Traditional data pipeline integrations require bespoke connections to a multitude of APIs, databases and file stores, presenting an endless maintenance and upgrade headache. Nyx becomes your single entry point into a universe of knowledge, optimising your development workflow and minimising integration effort. Function (Tool) call using popular Language Models directly into a single pipeline for the relevant information you need.
• Dark data: data resides, undocumented, in siloed data stores where it costs the organisation money in terms of storage and data infrastructure maintenance costs and presents no apparent business value. In order for the business to realise the value of data assets, Nyx makes data accessible, findable and understandable by those who are building products and services, or making decisions.
• Open data: Free and open data is great, but finding what you want, in a usable format, with sufficient assurance over quality, timeliness and consent is frustrating. Nyx enables AI systems to find relevant data by giving producers the means to describe their data using industry-standard semantic properties.
• No data contracts: even if data is available today, there’s no guarantee that it will be available tomorrow. To increase trust in data, Nyx enables data assets to be published with contracts and usage rights, giving confidence to those who are consuming it.
