Workflow

The Trust Lifecycle

A seamless four-step process that transforms how you handle sensitive documents

STEP 1

Issuer Onboards

Organizations register, configure templates, and set up their dedicated blockchain namespace.

STEP 2

Issue Credentials

Issuers create tamper-proof digital records. Data is hashed and anchored to the blockchain.

STEP 3

Holder Receives

Individuals receive credentials via email or wallet app, retaining full ownership and control.

STEP 4

Verifier Checks

Third parties instantly verify authenticity by scanning a QR code. No API integration required.
