What is Web5?

What is Web5 and Web+? Network diagram with Power Web5 Platform, Power Sheet, Web5DB

We are the original inventor of Web5. The only Web5+ platform & DB

We invented "Decentralized Web Apps (DWAs)" (decentralized offline-capable PWAs)
  • We invented in 2018 as "Web4"
  • Still the only platform for Web5 app creation
​
Rebranded as "Web5+" — as remain a superset of Jack Dorsey's "Web5" concept
  • The only platform or design with a Decentralized Web Database (DWDB)
  • Nearly impossible to create Web5 apps without our patentable Web5DB
What is Web5? What is Web5+?

What is Web 5?

Web5 = Web3 (decentralized blockchain) + Web2 (real-time collaboration).

Web accessible, embeddable, offline-capable for TBs instead of KBs of data.

Power Web5 with Power Sheet is the 1st and only Web 5 no-code/low-code apps platform & DB implemented. Invented in 2018 and originally described as Web4, it is now also the only Web5+ platform.

 

Web5+ is a superset of Web 5.0 which extends it with Decentralized Web Database (DWDB) support, SSO, no/low-code creation, always available hosting, and much more functionality. DWDBs are embedded to power the Web5 decentralized web apps (DWAs) / mobile2 decentralized offline-capable PWAs, as well as run as standalone headless databases and decentralized nodes.

Built 4 years before Twitter founder Jack Dorsey popularized the concept of Web5 (Web3 + Web2) and still remains the one and only implementation of the Web5 standard for decentralized PWA apps.  Even now it remains nearly impossible to build a Web5 app without a web-embeddable offline-capable decentralized DB to run them, which is why we built Web5DB from the ground up to make this possible.

 

According to Microsoft, Google, Gartner and Forrester, lightweight offline-capable progressive web apps (PWAs) are the "future of web & mobile", and until Power Web5 and Web5DB truly no-code & low-code offline-capable PWAs creation, let alone decentralized or massively scalable apps capable of handling real-time collaboration conflict free with offline access to GBs instead of KBs remained completely out of reach.

Only possible powered by our Web5DB

Easily sharable • free for unlimited users (vs restrictive per-viewer licensing in most no/low-code platforms) • embeddable (to instantly enhance/convert existing workflows with no IT migration needed) • built for the “future of web & mobile” (Web 5.0 PWAs) • always conflict-free sync & collaboration — all only possible powered by our Web5DB.

​

  • Uniquely scalable (99.7% less bandwidth & cloud costs) • fast (615x MongoDB • in-memory client-side queries) • available (even offline) • sustainable (75% less energy use) • optimized (for 5G • VPN hybrid work • IoT • the next billion internet users)

  • 1st Web 5.0 DB — decentralized Progressive Web App (PWA) DB — faster • more secure • more scalable • offline-capable • web embeddable • fast scalable IoT edge computing + always conflict-free P2P sync & collaboration — embeddable decentralized data warehouse & computing platform
