About us
Why DLT?
The conviction that everyone should be able to control their own data has driven Chunk Works to use Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT) in practical, secure data applications since 2018.
What is Chunk Works?
Chunk Works is a software development company that revolutionizes data storage. Inspired by the Skunk Works model, Chunk Works is a small and efficient team building highly advanced, decentralized cloud storage technology.
Our product development focuses on the performance, scalability, and usability of DLT-based decentralized storage and data transfers to encourage people to use them instead of existing, centralized ones.
Decentralized technology allows users to enjoy the benefits of cloud technology while taking back control of their online data—whether they want to keep it private, share it with someone they trust, or sell it on a data market.
Our vision
To create a world where decentralized storage is the norm, and individuals and businesses have complete control over their data. We believe that by leveraging the power of decentralized networks, we can create a more secure and equitable digital future for everybody.
Our mission
To build innovative decentralized networks, tools, and services that foster the adoption of decentralized storage. By creating solutions that are accessible to all, we empower individuals and businesses to take control of their data in a secure, reliable, and cost-effective way.
