Polychain’s $10M Bet on a Palm Scan to Save the Internet
VeryAI, a “proof of reality” platform, announced March 12 that it has raised $10 million in seed funding. The round was led by Polychain Capital, with participation from the Berggruen Institute and Anagram. With this fresh capital, VeryAI plans to scale its proof of reality infrastructure and develop further tools to ensure the future of the internet remains human-centric.
![The pursuit of accurate residue-level [latex] pK_a [/latex] prediction has evolved through distinct methodological approaches, initially leveraging descriptor-driven resources like DeepKaDB-built upon curated features from soluble proteins-and subsequently expanding with simulation-driven datasets such as PHMD549-which utilizes GPU acceleration to extend PHMD279 to over 26,000 residues-culminating in hybrid quantum-classical frameworks like DQNN that integrate curated descriptors with quantum-inspired feature transformations.](https://arxiv.org/html/2603.11061v1/Threepanelschemati.png)



![LLVQ consistently achieves superior performance to standard vector quantization methods-as demonstrated by lower perplexity on wikitext-2 and improved results on both the CSR and MMLU benchmarks-even when considering compression efficiency measured in bits per weight [latex] BPW [/latex].](https://arxiv.org/html/2603.11021v1/x2.png)
