How It Works

Four Steps to Verify

Three steps are required. The fourth is optional and boosts your starting trust score by up to 125 points.

01
Required
Government ID Verification
Upload a photo of your passport, driver's licence, or national ID. Quality is analysed in your browser first. Images are submitted to the TIP node over HTTPS only when you confirm and are discarded after matching.
02
Required
Active Facial Liveness Check
Three sequential challenges run entirely in your browser using your camera: face detection, blink detection, and head-turn detection. Confirms you are a live person and not a photo or recording. No video leaves your device.
03
Required
Device Biometric Binding
Your browser's WebAuthn API creates a cryptographic keypair inside your device's secure chip (Apple Secure Enclave, Android TrustZone, Windows TPM). The private key never leaves your hardware. Works with Face ID, Touch ID, fingerprint, and Windows Hello.
04
Optional
Social Graph Attestation
Link YouTube, X, Instagram, LinkedIn, or TikTok accounts. Each adds 25 points to your starting trust score. Skip now and add later in Settings.
🔒
Privacy first. The liveness check runs entirely in your browser. No video is sent to any server. ID images are sent only on final submission over HTTPS and are discarded after identity matching. Only a cryptographic hash and your public key are stored. Privacy Policy
