Pi App Studio backend support has been enabled! Backend capabilities begin with persistent storage for newly created App Studio apps, allowing apps to save and retrieve user-specific data across sessions.

Creators can now build App Studio apps with user experiences that continue even after users leave and return.

For example:
- Game apps can remember a user’s high scores
- Productivity apps can remember a user’s to-do lists
- Note-taking apps can preserve notes automatically

Before, Pi App Studio apps were largely limited to frontend-only, single-session experiences, where app data such as preferences or progress would disappear if users left the app.

Adding backend support is a significant App Studio platform milestone because it expands what AI-created apps can practically do on Pi Network. Persistent storage is the first capability built on this foundation, enabling a broader range of useful, everyday applications.

Pi App Studio has introduced two updates to help creators build more useful app experiences: persistent storage in the backend for newly created apps and an AI-assisted app planning phase before app generation begins.

Pi2Day 2026 reflects how Pi’s utility continues to grow through infrastructure and participation.

- Through SoloHost, Pi Desktop and Nodes can support new local AI app and compute use cases
- Pi Sign-in can help connect those experiences across users, devices, and services
- PiVerify can extend Pi’s real-human verification capabilities to third-party clients.

Together, these releases point to a broader direction for the ecosystem: Pi products are built both for the Pi ecosystem and to extend Pi services and resources to the external world. This, in turn, enriches and strengthens the Pi ecosystem.

Pi’s practical utility is built not only by product releases but by the Pioneers, Node operators, developers, KYC validators, app teams, merchants, and third-party services that use them, test them, and build on them.

Pi Sign-in allows supported third-party websites and apps to offer Pi accounts as a sign-in or sign-up option.

It helps provide the infrastructure that allows applications and services to recognize, connect, and serve users across and outside the ecosystem.

This means Pioneers can access supported services with their Pi account instead of creating a new account or password for every app.

Why would third-party services or websites want to integrate Pi Sign-in? Pi Sign-in creates a simpler way to connect them with Pi’s large user base and bring Pi users into their own product experiences. It also gives Pi more presence in third-party contexts while offering a way to tap into the additional benefits and resources of Pi Network, besides user traffic.

PiVerify is a KYC identity verification service available to third-party companies, making Pi’s real-human verification capabilities available outside the Pi ecosystem.

With PiVerify, external platforms can verify their users, reduce fake or duplicate accounts, and support compliance-related identity workflows.

For businesses and platforms, the need is straightforward: many digital services need to know whether users are real people. Verified identities are needed for any meaningful transactions, especially in real-world economies.

PiVerify services are also paid for in Pi, which increases Pi utility.

By making this infrastructure available to third parties, the Pi2Day 2026 PiVerify release extends the utility of Pi’s verified identity technology and resources beyond Pi’s own apps and services.
