Track; not yet

Why: PCC is the most mature production verifiable-private-inference system in the world, but it is a closed Apple-only platform with no general third-party PCC API. It is adoptable only indirectly (Apple Intelligence on-device/framework features), so the value to PV today is architectural reference, not direct integration.
Next: Monitor the summer-2026 preview completion and whether Apple opens a general PCC/Foundation-Models server API beyond the capped free tier; meanwhile study PCC's verifiable-transparency + append-only hardware ledger as a reference architecture for PV's own confidential-compute attestation.
