Ocean
World's fastest ai search engine and assistant
Ocean is a decentralized AI search assistant designed to be the fastest and most powerful in its class. Ocean delivers unmatched speed and efficiency, outperforming traditional AI search engines while remaining sovereign, borderless, and censorship-resistant.
Hey Product Hunt, I'm Ahmad Shadid, founder of O.XYZ!
Before building O.XYZ, I founded, built and scaled IO.NET, the largest decentralised compute infrastructure company, to $4B valuation. This is where I saw firsthand how AI is monopolized at every level. From GPU supply chains to cloud access, a handful of corporations and governments dictate who gets to build AI, how much it costs, and what it can say.
I watched as companies struggled to get the compute they needed—not because it wasn’t available, but because access was controlled, censored, or priced out of reach. Governments have backdoors into cloud providers, monitoring AI training and shutting down nodes at will. This isn’t just a business issue—it’s a fundamental problem for the future of AI.
That’s why we’re building Ocean—a Sovereign AI Search Engine designed to operate beyond centralized control and that is 10X faster than the other models out there.
The Problem
AI today is neither private nor truly in users’ hands:
🔹 Monopoly at every layer: From GPUs to cloud providers to AI applications, access is centralized. 🔹 Censorship & control: AI models are restricted, modified, or removed based on institutional interests. 🔹 Built-in surveillance: Governments have backdoor access to cloud-based AI, monitoring and controlling models at will.
This goes against the ethos of decentralized AI. AI should be open, transparent, and owned by its users.
🤔 What is Ocean?
We’re actively building Ocean to be more than just an AI search engine—our goal is to evolve it into a self-sovereign, fully private, intelligent, and censorship-resistant AI. Some parts are live, while others are in development.
✅ What Works Now
Community-Owned & Decentralized: Built to operate beyond corporate and government control.
Powered by Inferencing on Cerebras Chips: Delivers ultra-fast responses, reaching up to 2,200 tokens per second.
Smarter Search & Context Awareness: Retrieves deeper insights with related prompts and cited references.
Workflows & AI-Powered File Analysis: Upload PDFs, CSVs, or Excel files, and Ocean analyzes and extracts insights.
Organized AI Knowledge: Save and categorize your chats into folders for future reference.
O Voice: A voice assistant for hands-free AI interaction.
Discover Page: Browse trending prompts from third-party sources without using your prompt quota.
Normal Mode: A fast, privacy-first web search using SearxNG.
🎯 What’s Coming Next
We’re making Ocean even more powerful and decentralized.
Copilot Mode (In Development): AI-enhanced search with deep web exploration for richer results.
ORI (Routing Intelligence) (Launching in March): This intelligence selectsand routes to the best AI model for your specific prompt, optimizing responses for writing, coding, research, and more.
We envision a future where AI operates without centralized gatekeepers, where no single entity dictates its evolution, censors its responses, or exploits user data.
🔹A Decentralized AI Infrastructure: Built to function across terrestrial, orbital, and maritime networks, ensuring resilience beyond corporate or government control.
🔹 Privacy at the Core: Designed to minimize tracking and external influence, so users can interact without surveillance.
🔹 Transparent & Unbiased Intelligence: No hidden influence over responses.
