Vision Protocol is a near-future thriller set in Seattle, where a breakthrough neural implant lets blind users ‘see’ through smart glasses that stream video to the visual cortex. For beta tester Maya — a violinist who lost her sight — the system is a miracle: objects arrive with tags, faces, places with layers of history she can “deep dive” at will. But when overlays start mislabeling people as “Unknown,” and private moments surface as prompts only she can see, Maya suspects the platform is harvesting more than images. A whistleblower engineer vanishes, investors push a rushed launch, and the company’s learning model begins rewriting reality to fit its training data. Pursued through Pike Place and glass-walled boardrooms, Maya must choose: accept curated vision that millions crave, or expose the code that could blind a city. Vision Protocol asks what we risk when seeing becomes a subscription—and truth a software setting.
