What’s the latest progress on the Pi announcement?

SoloHost — your computer becomes your own private AI server. Instead of sending data to ChatGPT or Google’s cloud, you run AI agents locally (like Hermes) and control them from your phone via Pi Browser. Real use case: A small business owner runs a local AI assistant to handle overnight customer inquiries, data never leaves their machine, no monthly cloud bills.

Pi Sign-in — Think "Sign in with Google," but powered by Pi’s 18 million+ KYC-verified user base. A startup building a marketplace or SaaS tool can let users sign in with Pi without building their own authentication system, instantly inheriting a verified human user base. Less user friction, less dev work for founders.

PiVerify — This is the invisible money machine. Any fintech, exchange, or Web3 app that needs KYC/AML compliance can now plug into Pi’s identity system without building from scratch, and pay with Pi. Every verification becomes real token demand, tied to actual business needs rather than speculation.

Common theme: Pi is stopping being a walled garden and starting to sell picks and shovels to the outside world — compute, identity, and trust. Whether this demand is reflected in price is another question. But this is the first time Pi’s utility pitch comes with a business model.

Your take: Real turning point, or infrastructure without adoption?
