The Web, Owned by Its Users
Every page you visit becomes a verified, compressed semantic snapshot. Shared with the community. Indexed forever.
How It Works
Three steps turn every browser session into a contribution to the community index — at zero extra cost to you.
Visit
Solace Browser captures aPrime Wiki snapshotas you browse — a structured semantic map of the page's content, headings, intents, and entities. The LLM runs once during your first visit. Every replay costs$0.
Compress
The snapshot is compressed withPZip at a 66:1 ratio. A 50KB page becomes a 750-byte semantic fingerprint. SHA-256 hash-chained for tamper-evident verification. Stored locally — your disk, your data.
Share
Opt in to push your snapshot to the community index. Everyone who visits that page after you downloads your snapshot instead of running the LLM — saving99% of tokensfor the whole community.
Your Settings
Community browsing is opt-in. You control what you share. Every push is OAuth3-scoped and consent-gated.
# ~/.solace/config.json — Community Browser settings prime_wiki.enabled: true # capture Prime Wiki snapshots locally prime_mermaid.auto_capture: true # extract Mermaid diagrams automatically community.sync_enabled: false # opt-in: push your snapshots to the index community.auto_pull: true # always receive: download community snapshots
Pull is always on — you benefit from the community index by default. Push is always off until you choose to share.
Why Join the Community Index
Google indexes the web with server farms that cost billions per year. The Solace Community Index runs on your hardware — and gets better the more people use it.
| Dimension | Solace Community Index | |
|---|---|---|
| Freshness | Days to weeks (crawl lag) | Real-time (your session = the index) |
| Privacy | Tracked, profiled, revenue-driven | OAuth3 scoped opt-in — nothing leaves without consent |
| Structure | Bag-of-words keyword index | Semantic Prime Wiki — intents, entities, headings |
| Infrastructure cost | Billions per year (Google's data centers) | $0 (your hardware, PZip 66:1 compression) |
| Token savings | None — every AI query burns tokens | 99% cheaper on cached pages — LLM runs once, replays free |
The Community Flywheel
📈 More Users = More Snapshots
Every new Solace Browser user adds more pages to the community index. The index grows without any central infrastructure — just users browsing the web they already browse.
💸 More Snapshots = Cheaper AI
When you download a community snapshot instead of calling the LLM, your task costs $0.001 instead of $0.05. 50x cheaper. The more the community shares, the cheaper AI gets for everyone.
⚡ Cheaper AI = Better Community
Cheaper AI means more tasks run, more workflows get automated, more snapshots get created. The flywheel accelerates. Google's moat is infrastructure. Ours is the community.
Join the Community Index
Free for Pro members. Opt-in only. Your data stays yours.
Every page you browse becomes a verified, PZip-compressed semantic snapshot. Push is opt-in. Pull is always on. You benefit from the community the moment you install Solace Browser — and you can choose to give back when you're ready.

Under the Hood
Prime Wiki snapshots are designed to be small, verifiable, and independent of the original page — so they can be shared without sharing your session.
📋 Prime Wiki Format
A Prime Wiki snapshot contains: page title, headings (H1-H3), entity list, intent classification, key facts, and a Mermaid diagram of the page's conceptual structure. No raw HTML. No cookies. No session data. Just semantic meaning.
# Prime Wiki snapshot (pre-compression):
{
"url_hash": "sha256:a3f...",
"title": "...",
"headings": ["...", "..."],
"entities": ["...", "..."],
"intent": "...",
"key_facts": ["...", "..."],
"mermaid": "graph LR\n ..."
}
🔆 PZip Compression
PZip compresses the Prime Wiki snapshot at a 66:1 ratio. A 50KB page produces a snapshot under 750 bytes — small enough to store millions of pages locally without filling your disk. The compression is deterministic: the same page always produces the same snapshot.
# Compression stats: original_html: 50,000 bytes prime_wiki_json: 2,400 bytes pzip_compressed: 750 bytes ratio: 66:1 (vs original HTML) sha256_seal: "b7c2..." verified: true
