Storacha & PLDG Are Bringing the Heat: Cohort 2 Builders in Action

Protocol Labs Dev Guild (PLDG) Cohort 2 builders are working side by side with our team to cook up some sizzling integrations, and we can’t wait to showcase their work. Once their projects are complete, expect some 🔥 demos coming your way, but for now, here’s a sneak peek.

AI Agent: Smarter, Hotter, More Connected

Storacha is jumping into the AI fire — and we’re making it spicy. Builders are leveraging Storacha’s ultra-performant hot storage to enable multi-agent ensemble reasoning, where AI agents own their own space, store shared memories, and permission access using UCANs. Imagine AI agents seamlessly sharing chain of thoughts, enriching outputs, and pushing the limits of decentralized AI. Devs are making it happen using ElizaOS and MotherDAO, and we’re here for it. Check out our demo with ElizaOS.

Bluesky Backup App: Data Sovereignty for the Fediverse

Bluesky is taking off, and PLDG builders are making sure users have total control over their data. A small but mighty team is working alongside Storacha engineers to craft a Bluesky Backup app, ensuring users can recover accounts, port data between clients, and stay sovereign in the decentralized social web. This is real digital autonomy, powered by Storacha. For more information on the intersection between Storacha and Bluesky, check out this blog post.

Python Client: Because AI Devs Deserve Better

AI tooling is exploding, and Storacha is keeping up. That’s why PLDG builders are building a fully loaded Python client for DAG creation, CAR file handling, and seamless IPFS integrations — a major win for AI developers who need robust decentralized storage. Given the current lack of IPFS-native Python tools, this effort is bringing some much-needed heat to the ecosystem.

Migration Tooling: From Web2 to Web3 Without the Burn

Web2 storage? Not so hot. That’s why builders are crafting a JavaScript migration tool that makes moving from S3 to Storacha as frictionless as possible. This will make it easier for companies and developers to escape the clutches of centralized storage and migrate to the spicy world of decentralized hot storage — without the headache.

Go Client: Feature Parity

Go devs, we see you. Our Go client is in the works, and PLDG builders are making sure it stacks up to our other tooling. The goal? Full feature parity, so any dev onboarding to Storacha can work in the language of their choice. No compromises, just pure decentralized power in your stack.

What’s Next?

It’s a scorching time to be part of the Storacha x PLDG community, and we’re counting down the days until Cohort 2 projects go live in April. Expect demos, deep dives, and plenty of spicy moments as we showcase the final builds.
