The problem Vaultify solves

Vaultify addresses the critical challenges of secure document storage, access control, and efficient management by leveraging blockchain technology, encryption, and AI. Traditional cloud storage solutions are vulnerable to hacks and unauthorized access, but Vaultify ensures security by encrypting documents with AES-256 and storing them on the decentralized IPFS network. It simplifies access control through on-chain permissions via the Aptos blockchain, allowing users to grant or revoke access seamlessly. Vaultify also enhances document retrieval and analysis using AI-powered OCR and Hugging Face's Question Answering API, enabling users to extract text and ask questions about their documents. Additionally, it ensures document authenticity with digital signatures and facilitates collaboration with on-chain AI agents for tasks like contract review. By prioritizing privacy and decentralization, Vaultify eliminates reliance on third-party services, providing a secure, efficient, and user-centric solution for document management.

Challenges we ran into

While developing Vaultify, we encountered several challenges that tested our technical expertise and creativity. Implementing secure document encryption and decryption using AES-256 required careful management of initialization vectors (IVs) and secret keys, which we addressed using Node.js crypto libraries. Integrating decentralized storage with IPFS posed difficulties in handling large files and ensuring data integrity, but we streamlined the process using the Pinata SDK. On-chain access control via the Aptos blockchain introduced complexities in managing permissions, which we resolved by designing smart contract-like functions for granting and revoking access. Additionally, extracting text from documents using OCR and integrating Hugging Face's AI models for categorization and question-answering required overcoming compatibility and performance issues. Despite these hurdles, we successfully built a secure, decentralized, and AI-powered document management system that prioritizes user privacy and efficiency.
