Why developing with Prifina is different

Holistic data

Data is uploaded, imported and managed by the user, stays with the user and creates value for the user. Users can re-use data with apps.

No backend needed

Build your application quickly and easily by using Prifina's serverless framework and functions. No logs, no servers, full privacy.

Data minimization

Applications run locally on user-held data. This minimizes the data applications use and can reduce your liability as a developer.​

Potential use cases

These are a few examples of applications that can be developed. We encourage you to explore more concepts by joining our developer community to collaborate with other like-minded individuals to transform these ideas to reality.

Personal Insights and Actions

Combine and compare data from multiple sources, such as sleep data from wearables, streaming data from music services and location data from maps, to give users insights into how choices and habits relate to each other and influence overall quality-of-life.

Recommendation Apps

Recommendation apps combine personal data with public data to craft unique, personal recommendations for users.

Example: Build an application that gives users podcast suggestions based on newsletter subscriptions and reading history.

Personal Assistants

Build personal assistants that use data to suggest habits and daily activities.

For example, you can combine exercise patterns from wearables with weather forecast data and work schedules to suggest the best time to get outside and exercise on any given day.
