 Other apps are [Bolt](https://bolt.holdings/), a wallet that is very secure with air-gapped 2FA split-key protocol to prevent hacks from compromising your digital assets, and it enables you to stake and earn from the storage providers; [Atlus](https://atlus.cloud/), a blockchain explorer and [Chimney](https://demo.chimney.software/), which allows anyone to join the network and earn using their server or by just renting one, with no prior knowledge required.
 
+We’ve built the first **S3-compatible storage platform** that is both **ACID-compliant** and runs on a **zero-knowledge network** — eliminating the need for additional services like AWS Athena or GuardDuty to secure or query your data.
+  - **5x better performance** – Real-world tests (see benchmark from s3compare.io) showed up to 5x gains versus AWS.
+  - **2x lower costs** – Thanks to zero egress and zero API fees, you save more as your usage scales.
+  - **2x lower carbon footprint** – Our erasure-coded architecture minimizes redundancy-related overhead (see below for architectural breakdown).
+  - **Bulletproof security** – Split-key security, zero-knowledge design, and erasure coding ensure unmatched internal breach resistance.
+  - **No vendor lock-in** – Easily add, remove, or swap providers with no disruption or central dependency.
+
+  One of our enterprise customers benchmarked Züs against AWS using [s3compare.io](https://s3compare.io) and saw **5x performance improvements** across common S3 operations — validating our edge in real-time workloads and data transfer scenarios.
+  
+  We also fill security and vendor neutrality gaps that MinIO and AWS have in their solution. Check the table below for comparison.
+  
+  Beyond backup and datalake storage, our platform is ideal for storing AI data, where integrity and verifiability matter such as for MCP workflows.
