Reclaim Protocol provides a software development kit (SDK) that enables businesses to request cryptographic proofs of user credentials from any website, ensuring data integrity without requiring changes on the source sites. This technology allows users to securely verify their identity and reputation across platforms, addressing the need for tamper-proof data verification in various applications, from financial services to digital marketplaces.

Problem
Many applications require users to prove their identity or reputation based on data residing on various websites, but current methods often involve complex integrations or expose sensitive user data. Existing solutions lack a standardized, privacy-preserving way for users to selectively share verifiable credentials from any website without requiring API access or modifications to the source sites.
Solution
Reclaim Protocol offers a software development kit (SDK) that enables applications to request cryptographic proofs of user credentials from any website. The protocol leverages a network of HTTPS proxies to create digital signatures of user data obtained from website responses. These signatures are then used to generate zero-knowledge proofs on the client side, ensuring user privacy and data integrity. Applications can use these proofs to verify a user's identity or reputation without directly accessing their personal information or requiring changes to the websites where the data originates.
Target Audience
The primary target audience includes Web3 developers, decentralized application (dApp) creators, and businesses that require verifiable user data for applications such as digital asset marketplaces, prediction markets, on-ramps/off-ramps, and proof-of-personhood solutions.
