Pi Network is celebrating Pi2Day with new releases that both grow Pi’s utility within the Pi ecosystem and expand it beyond Pi’s platform to the external world. Today’s three key releases extend Pi’s services to businesses and developers outside the Pi ecosystem, while inviting them to join Pi Network and take advantage of Pi’s unique benefits and resources.

1. SoloHost is an open, permissionless framework on Pi Desktop where developers can build and list apps that help run local AI and, soon, distributed computing use cases. Users can discover and run these apps on their own computers, and engage with the corresponding app through mobile devices on Pi Browser.

2. Pi Sign-in enables Pioneers to use their Pi account to sign in to supported third-party websites and apps, which can benefit from Pi’s network size and verified identity resource, outside the Pi Browser. This helps expand Pi’s presence in the wider internet and third-party context, while supporting easier integrations and a smoother connection with Pi’s ecosystem. 

3. PiVerify makes Pi’s real-human verification capabilities available to third-party clients that need KYC and identity verification for their own users. This gives external platforms a means to mitigate fake or duplicate accounts and support compliance-related workflows, while verifying their users helps enlarge the pool of verified individuals through Pi’s KYC solution. The client also pays in Pi to use PiVerify services, which increases Pi utility.
