Digital services citizens can trust,
built in Canada.

Verified identity, reusable credentials, and post-quantum security for citizen services, benefits, and licensing, on infrastructure that is Canadian-owned and built to the standards your auditors already recognize.

Citizen identity
High-assurance verification without a central surveillance database.
Digital credentials
Licences and entitlements citizens hold and present themselves.
Privacy by design
Selective disclosure keeps programmes inside civil-liberties limits.
The pressure

What program teams are up against

Service expectations, sovereignty questions, and a cryptographic migration that all land in the same procurement cycle.

01

Citizens expect bank-grade onboarding from government

Paper forms and in-person ID checks cost time and exclude people; digital flows that collect and store ID scans create a breach target the public will not forgive.

02

Sovereignty is now a procurement criterion

Agencies are being asked where identity data lives, who owns the vendor, and whether a foreign court can compel access. A Canadian-owned, Canada-hosted option changes the answer.

03

The post-quantum mandate has a deadline

Government cryptography guidance in Canada and the US requires migration planning now; identity systems issued today must still be valid when the deadlines arrive.

What goes live

The modules you can turn on in the current product, without a platform migration first.

01

Identity Verification

Passports, driver's licenses, national IDs, and a broad set of additional document types with OCR and MRZ; liveness and face match; global coverage; manual-review routing for exceptions.

02

Verifiable Credentials

Issue program-specific credentials (residency, eligibility, licensing) citizens hold and present; built on W3C Verifiable Credentials and aligned with eIDAS.

03

Authentication

Passwordless sign-in to portals using the identity-bound key; FIDO/WebAuthn and OpenID Connect.

04

Compliance and controls

Sanctions screening where relevant, jurisdiction rules, age rules, signed audit trail; all configurable per flow.

05

Deployment

REST API, Web SDK, webhooks; production and sandbox environments.

What it becomes

The same deployment, on the trust layer

A reusable citizen identity without a central honeypot

Verify once; the citizen holds a credential and a key. Each program checks a signature rather than copying the file.

Cross-program interoperability

The same credential serves tax, benefits, and licensing portals; no agency rebuilds verification.

Zero-knowledge eligibility

Prove residency, age, or status without revealing the underlying data; privacy-by-design that stands up to a privacy commissioner's review.

Quantum-safe from day one

Keys and signatures use the NIST post-quantum standards, so credentials issued now do not need a forced re-enrollment later.

Use cases

Where teams start

Each one runs on the modules above — pick the one that matches the quarter you are in.

Discuss your use case
  • Digital onboarding for benefit and licensing programs
  • Reusable proof of residency and eligibility across provincial and municipal services
  • Passwordless citizen portal login and account recovery
  • Credentials for contractors, inspectors, and field staff accessing government systems
  • Identity for government devices and automated services (see Critical infrastructure)
