Our startup is building a decentralized credentialing platform that empowers
students to securely own, manage, and share their academic and employment
records using blockchain technology. Traditional credential systems are
outdated—they rely on paper or siloed digital records, are vulnerable to
fraud, and create friction for both students and employers. We’re fixing
that with a blockchain-based platform that issues tamper-proof, instantly
verifiable academic credentials and work endorsements.
At the heart of our solution is a self-sovereign identity model. Verified
universities issue encrypted credentials directly to students, stored in a
secure digital wallet. These records—transcripts, degrees, or even employer
recommendations—are anchored to the blockchain, ensuring permanent validity
without exposing private information. Students maintain full control over
what they share, when, and with whom. Employers can instantly verify the
credentials via our API, cutting down on background checks and eliminating
the risk of fake degrees.
The product is structured around three core interfaces:
- A University Portal for credential creation and issuance.
- A Student Wallet to store, manage, and selectively share records.
- An Employer API/Portal for verifying or endorsing records, integrated with
job platforms like LinkedIn or Indeed.
Our revenue model includes tiered subscriptions for educational institutions,
verification fees for employers, and optional premium features for students
(e.g., advanced analytics or export options). We're also exploring
partnerships with job platforms to make blockchain-verified applications a
hiring standard.
This system is not only a technological upgrade—it’s a trust engine. We
reduce fraud, save institutions time, and give students lifelong control of
their educational identity. And as adoption grows, so does the network value:
every new school, student, or company strengthens the entire ecosystem.
Our vision is to standardize verifiable digital credentials globally,
starting with higher education and scaling to certifications, bootcamps, and
corporate learning. We believe in a future where no one has to wait weeks for
a transcript or wonder if a resume is real—credentials should be instant,
private, and trusted.
