Simple Web3 Publishing

Cortex makes it simple to publish to a web that has crypto built into the core. Users can control their data and easily link digital assets with content and media.

Connect and collaborate in powerful new ways.

A New Kind of Linking

Blockchain links, or “blinks”, a new kind of linking, allows for public and private links. Each note has cryptographic keys that are identified not by clumsy crypto addresses, but by your personal domain and path.

Alice.me/Blog, or some other domain and path you choose, becomes yours and yours only in the world. Human-readable names that work like file paths or URLs. You can even use your current crypto current keys as the beginning of new note structures giving them a whole new power. Keylinks that aren’t accessible to you don’t open. Markup makes it all flexible.

Verifiably Yours

Cortex is a gateway into an authentic internet.

Verifiably Yours

Each note is also verified and validated by the note owner and can be used as IDs or to carry and show your NFTs within the note that has its own context

All You Digital Stuff On The Go

And while you can prove ownership, nobody else can prove what you own without you OKing that approval. Carry and access all your digital stuff wherever you go.

Smart Identity

Show a barcode to prove anything you own is yours and current, like a concert ticket or IDs, or insurance coverage. Others can also digitally sign for additional verification of your authentic self.

You Decide Who Can See What

You decide who has access to your notes. You hold the keys. Neither Cortex nor anyone else can access your notes without your permission and everything’s encrypted end to end, unless you make it public.

Your encrypted data will be able to live where you choose, locally, IPFS, AWS or just about anywhere.

Channels for Sharing and Collaboration

Keep things private for yourself, between you and one other, a group, or publish to the web to collaborate. Git-like features manage versions, history and even forking of your creations. The history of changes will move with your creations. Simple, decentralized and provable.

Earn Recognition and Coin

With all these keys, of course, there’s also a financial context. You can quickly turn anything you create into an tokenize what you create. And as each note is also a valid set of crypto keys, they can be used to send and receive coins or NFTs.

Individual notes or entire trees of notes can also easily become shareable, tradeable NFTs.

Topics and Social Search

Notes have topics and links that allow you to share, search and contribute across your social sphere and globally to see what the people you care about are saying on a topic.

Globally Unique

We’ll be selling first-come, first serve Butterfly Protocol domain names that will act as global IDs on Cortex in just a few weeks.

With these names on Cortex, you'll make an impression and be able to open up some unique features.

The domain will serve as an ID but also an address for your creations and postings.
