If every person can prove they're real — once, not endlessly — the internet will be a better place for everyone. Our mission is to make verified, portable trust a ubiquitous reality.

The internet today is under siege. Bots distort everything from signups to social media. AI-generated deepfakes erode trust in what's real. Real people are constantly asked to prove who they are, yet have no portable way to do so across platforms.
We're building the trust layer of the internet—a decentralized identity platform where 9 million users prove their humanity once and carry that proof everywhere. Using palm-based biometric verification, zero-knowledge cryptography, and blockchain infrastructure, we're creating a world where humans own their identity and credentials, not platforms.
This isn't theoretical. This is production infrastructure serving millions of users, processing thousands of verifications daily, and powering partnerships with major financial institutions and Web3 protocols.

We are building a scalable platform that processes credential issuance, verification, and revocation with <500ms p95 latency. Event-driven architectures with Kafka, optimizing MongoDB queries against 100M+ credentials, and implementing WebSocket systems for real-time dashboard updates.

We're implementing selective disclosure with zk-SNARKs, BJJ signatures, and privacy-preserving range proofs that let users prove financial thresholds ("I earn >$100k") without revealing exact amounts. This is cutting-edge cryptography research deployed at scale.

We're migrating our credential platform to W3C VC standards, building BJJ-based identity wallets with HSM-backed key storage, implementing TEE-based verification and designing multi-issuer infrastructure.

We are building oracle systems that will run across multiple chains, manage smart contracts that distribute fees to multiple issuers, enabling cross-chain liquidity and credentials while maintaining sub-5 second verification SLAs. RPC provider failover, circuit breakers, and real-time transaction monitoring are table stakes.

We question everything. Why MongoDB for credentials? Why W3C VCs over proprietary formats? Why zk-SNARKs over zk-STARKs? We break problems down to fundamental truths and reason up from there, not "do things just because."

We're a team of self-starters. You won't get micromanaged. You'll get context, trust, and the agency to make decisions that move fast. Our culture of clear communication means we align quickly, then execute independently.
