The problem, decomposedEvery onboarding decision reduces to four questions.
Personhood, identity, disclosure, and authority. Most compliance stacks answer the first two by collecting everything and the last two not at all. Each of these has its own answer, and each answer can be given without collecting the person.
Is this a real person?
Proof of personhood
Establish that a record belongs to a real, unique human. The check holds across systems that never share a database, so one person cannot quietly become fifty applicants, fifty submitters, or fifty voters.
Human Passport →Are they who they claim to be?
Identity verification
Government ID, residency, age, and screening against sanctions and politically-exposed-person lists. Each check returns a verifiable result a counterparty can trust, rather than another copy of the document.
Proof of Clean Hands →What may be revealed, and to whom?
Privacy-preserving disclosure
Private by default, with disclosure set by rule instead of by habit. What is published, what goes only to a regulator, and what stays sealed is decided up front, and every disclosure is provable after the fact.
Clean SDK →Who may act on their behalf?
Delegated authority
Wallets a person holds themselves, and agents that operate inside limits a human set in advance. Every action carries the authority it was granted, so a delegate can be given real reach without being handed the account.
