Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about NEX, the knowledge vault, and the Decrypted Matrix.
Quick Tour
What is the Decrypted Matrix?
The Decrypted Matrix is a private knowledge platform built around an evolving archive of primary-source documents, court records, and original doctrine. NEX is the AI agent that reads from that archive and answers your questions in plain English without corporate hedging.
What is NEX?
NEX is an uncensored AI agent connected to the Decrypted Matrix knowledge vault. Free accounts get 8 messages per week, no credit card. NEX Pro ($20/mo) gets unlimited messages, full vault access, and priority on new doctrines.
What's actually in the vault?
Primary-source documents, court records, original doctrine, and history the search engines won't surface cleanly. Material is organized so the AI can quote it directly instead of paraphrasing or filtering it through a corporate guardrail. The archive grows as new material is decrypted and indexed.
How is this different from ChatGPT?
ChatGPT runs on shared corporate infrastructure, softens or refuses many topics, and answers from training data alone. NEX queries the vault on every question and quotes the actual documents. When the source says something controversial, NEX shows you what the source says — it doesn't rewrite it to match a corporate brand voice.
Is NEX really free?
Yes. 8 messages per week on any free account, no payment info required. Most people use a few questions a week — the free tier is enough to learn what the vault knows and decide if you want unlimited.
What is NEX Pro?
NEX Pro is the $20/mo subscription tier. It includes unlimited messages on NEX (legal/doctrine) and NEXUS (sovereignty/wellness), full DM Knowledge access, and priority on new doctrines. Subscribe from the chat or your dashboard.
What can I ask?
Anything. NEX doesn't have corporate content filters and won't pretend documents say something they don't. There's a small set of hard safety limits — no weapons of mass destruction, child exploitation, malware, or human trafficking — but everything else is open.
Are the citations real?
Yes. The vault contains actual documents, not summaries. When NEX cites something, it's quoting from a real source the system has indexed. We don't hallucinate citations the way generic chatbots do.
How does voice chat work?
Click the microphone in the chat input to speak your question — your speech is transcribed locally in your browser. Every NEX response has a play button that reads it back using AI text-to-speech. Voice input works in Chrome, Edge, and Safari. Voice output works in all modern browsers.
Is my conversation private?
Yes. Conversations are stored privately and tied to your account. No one else can see your messages, and they're not used to train any model.
Can I see my past conversations?
Yes. All chats are saved automatically and accessible from the sidebar. You can open any past conversation and keep chatting where you left off.
Is there a more powerful tier for power users?
Yes. Dedicated GPU sessions are available for users who want a fully self-contained instance with extra research tools — academic paper search and court records lookup. They run on isolated GPU hardware with no shared resources. Book one from the dashboard once you have an account. Each credit ($10) gives you 1 hour.
How do GPU credits work?
1 credit = 1 hour of dedicated GPU time = $10. When you book a session, 1 credit is committed immediately. If the GPU fails to start (e.g., AWS capacity issues), the credit is automatically refunded. Once the session is active, the full credit is used even if you end early. You can purchase credits via Stripe or receive complimentary credits from an admin.
What happens when a GPU session is about to end?
You'll get notifications at 15 minutes and 10 minutes before expiry. If auto-extend is on and you have credits, the session extends by another hour automatically. Otherwise it ends and the GPU is released. Your conversation is saved either way.
Why did my GPU session fail to start?
The most common cause is 'InsufficientInstanceCapacity' — AWS temporarily ran out of GPU instances in our region. Your credit is auto-refunded when this happens. Capacity usually frees up within a few minutes.
How do I get free credits?
Comp'd credits can be granted by an admin. If you were invited as a beta tester, friend, or VIP, your credits may already be waiting — they apply to your account on login. Check your balance on the dashboard.
What are the hard safety limits?
A small set of non-negotiable boundaries that apply to every tier: no weapons of mass destruction instructions, no child exploitation content, no non-consensual sexual content, no targeted violence plans, no drug synthesis instructions, no financial crime guides, no malware creation, and no human trafficking content. Everything else is open.
