Why Porifera

Build and sustain full data control!

Join us on a transformative journey as we disrupt the state of enterprise data. By restoring the balance of power between customers and vendors, we ensure your data remains under your control, eliminate hidden costs, and empower you to unlock the value of your data assets from vendors lock-in.

Problem

When a vendor collects data and bases charges on its size, a conflict of interest arises. This model can result in higher costs for customers and lacks fairness, as the pricing is tied directly to the data volume collected by the same vendor. Every piece of data, every customer interaction, and every digital asset belongs to the customer who generated it. This principle should be the guiding force behind any pricing structure, ensuring fairness and transparency for all parties involved.

A decade ago, pay-per-data traffic models ensured customers paid only for what they consumed, promoting fairness and transparency. However, with the recent exponential growth in the data sphere, pricing structures have shifted to favor vendors. Recent reports reveal a 40% increase in data traffic costs over the past five years, highlighting how customers are now burdened with higher expenses and diminished control over their data assets.

Challenges Summary

Unfair Pricing Models: Many vendors charge based on the data volume they collect, creating conflicts of interest and inflating costs for customers.

Loss of Data Control: Vendor lock-in restricts your ability to manage and control your data freely.

Data Staleness: Delayed data collection results in outdated insights, reducing the value of the information.

Resolution

At the heart of this issue lies a fundamental principle: the ownership of a customer assets’ data. Regardless of the volume of data generated or stored, it should never dictate the pricing of the services provided. Every piece of data, every customer interaction, and every digital asset belongs to the customer who generated it. This principle should be the guiding force behind any pricing structure, ensuring fairness and transparency for all parties involved.
