Problem
Online platforms face increasing challenges in verifying user identities securely and cost-effectively. Traditional identity verification methods often rely on third-party intermediaries, leading to data privacy concerns and increased compliance burdens. The risk of fraudulent identity documents also remains a significant issue for many businesses.
Solution
Outdid offers a B2B service that enables fully private identity verification using Zero-Knowledge Proofs (ZKPs). The solution authenticates government-issued documents directly on the user's device, eliminating the need to share sensitive data with third parties. Outdid's novel ZK algorithm generates a credential containing only the information required for verification, which is then submitted to the platform. This approach reduces the cost and complexity associated with storing and processing personal information while ensuring compliance with privacy regulations.
Target Audience
Outdid targets web platforms that require user identity verification, including those serving age-restricted content, social media platforms combating misinformation, and mass-market platforms seeking privacy-preserving verification methods.
