Data owner flow diagram showing the interaction between users and T3N

The Terminal 3 Network functions as a private data layer between consumer applications (e.g., AI agents) and an ecosystem of third-party integrations that require user data (e.g., booking.com) to complete transactions. At a high-level, the network:
  • Securely stores user data encrypted in a decentralized manner;
  • Provides access to private user data via privacy-enhancing technologies (PET); and
  • Delivers user data to third-party integrations (i.e., last mile data delivery) where only the intended recipient can view the data without the ability to link it back to anonymous identities.
Data owners can interact with the network in two ways: either indirectly through an AI agent or application, or directly through a user interface (UI).

Interacting through an AI agent

AI agents, such as computer-using agents (CUA), are often used to automate specific tasks for their human operators. For instance, AI travel agents can make flight and bookings, while AI crypto trading agents can execute trades. T3N assists these AI agents in connecting with an ecosystem of third-party integrations via API or smart contracts, and conducting last mile delivery of private data necessary to complete transactions. This ensures that AI agents never have access to sensitive information, such as PII, API keys, or private keys.

Interact directly

Data owners can also directly interact with T3N to manage data through a user interface to enrich their user data and manage their data token for future data consumption. A data token is a user-signed authorization token that grants specific permission to disclose selective user data to the token holder. The data token can be single- or multi-use, and is non-transferable. This direct interaction with T3N allows data owners to enrich their data and properly configure their data tokens in advance, enabling them to take full advantage of automation when interacting with an AI agent. T3N abstracts away all the complexities of managing and handling private user data for AI agent developers. This significantly helps accelerate time to market, gain trust from users, and quick access to a large user base. As for data owners, T3N provides peace of mind when using AI agents to enhance their life and better user experience for managing their identity and user data.

Key Features

1. Securely manage your profile via quantum-proof encryption

Unlike standard web apps, your data is protected by end-to-end quantum-proof encryption. T3N’s encryption is handled by the Network or TEE (Trusted Execution Environment), ensuring that your raw data is never exposed to storage providers or node operators. Only the secure enclave or the owner holds the ability to decrypt.

2. Flexible authentication methods

You can manage how you access your account based on your preferred authentication methods (e.g., social login, web3 wallet, etc.).

3. Single dashboard to discover AI agents and manage their permissions

You can browse available AI agents, grant them specific permissions, and monitor or revoke their permissions at any time, giving you full control over your digital footprint.

4. Complete transparency with verifiable audit logs

Every transaction and API call is recorded, providing you with a clear and auditable history of all activities for total accountability.
