MetaLocker is Piprate’s data distribution framework for secure, privacy-preserving exchange across individuals, organizations and ecosystems. It’s built for a world where data is constantly reused - by people, services, and AI - and where sharing must be controlled, auditable, and revocable without turning into a shared database or a compliance headache.
MetaLocker gives you the infrastructure to move data safely.
What MetaLocker does
MetaLocker provides an operational layer for publishing and exchanging data while keeping control with the source:
Secure data custody: keep data in storage you control, with strong encryption and clear boundaries.
Selective sharing: grant access to specific parties and specific datasets - no broad, permanent permissions.
Provenance and auditability: every exchange can be recorded so you can prove what was shared, when, and under what terms.
Revocable access: update or withdraw permissions as relationships, risk, or regulatory requirements change.
This is “trust-by-design” collaboration: it doesn’t rely on promises or platforms behaving perfectly - it’s built into the architecture.
Why this matters in an AI world
AI increases both the value and the risk of data reuse:
Models and agents need high-quality context, not just raw files.
Teams need lineage to trust outputs and reproduce results.
Organisations need purpose limitation and consent that survives downstream use.
Users and regulators increasingly expect control and accountability, not uncontrolled copies.
MetaLocker is designed for exactly that: shared intelligence without shared custody - so AI can work with data without turning “access” into “loss of control.”
Why MetaLocker
In an era of increasing data complexity and growing privacy demands, traditional methods of data exchange fall short - leaving organizations vulnerable to breaches, compliance risks, and inefficient workflows. MetaLocker provides a new paradigm: a secure, privacy-preserving, and audit-ready framework that transforms how businesses share knowledge.
MetaLocker is more than infrastructure - it’s a smarter, safer way to collaborate. Whether enabling innovation in insurance, healthcare, research, or any data-driven sector, MetaLocker empowers participants to trust their data flows, unlock new opportunities for cooperation, and do so with unparalleled security.
