Universities & credentials
Degrees an employer can verify in seconds, with no registry call.
The problem
Verifying a degree means contacting the institution and waiting, and every document handed over exposes more personal data than the check requires.
01
What is anchored
Degrees, transcripts and enrolment records — as fingerprints, never as published documents.
02
When it is revealed
Anchored at issue. The holder proves their own credential when they choose to.
03
Who checks it
Any employer, in seconds, without contacting the registrar and without the document ever being exposed.
Privacy mode
Fingerprint only — the record never leaves the institution.
