Trust protocol · Proof beats AI
AI made “evidence” cheap. Trust is collapsing.

Trust Pods — portable trust that survives AI.

Everyone feels it: fake sellers, forged documents, deepfake calls, and screenshots of “verified.” The question isn’t “who are you?” — it’s “can I safely do business with you right now?”

Passpod is not identity. It’s a trust primitive: signed signals + freshness + consent, rendered instantly as snapshot, verifier view, JSON, or QRwithout storing documents.

Provenance (signed signals)
Freshness (expires by policy)
Consent (scoped sharing)
Non-custodial (no doc vault)

What people call “proof” is now just content.

In the AI era, trust can’t rely on artifacts (screenshots, PDFs, messages). Artifacts are easy to fake. And centralized verification turns you into a data honeypot (breach + liability). Passpod flips it: trust becomes living metadata governed by rules.

  • 1
    Create a pod
    Hiring, marketplace, vendor onboarding, eligibility, access — start anywhere.
  • 2
    Add signals
    Trusted logins, org attestations, manager checks, issuer/verifier signatures.
  • 3
    Share the right output
    Snapshot / Verifier view / JSON / QR — same pod, different render.
Works with email, org domain checks, VC, gov ID, wallets — your choice. Passpod stays non-custodial.

Why now: the trust reset

AI didn’t just create content. It created mass-scale believable fraud. The winners won’t be “more documents.” The winners will be portable trust with provenance.

AI makes fakes cheap

Deepfake calls, forged PDFs, synthetic references, “verified” screenshots.

Databases become targets

Document vaults become honeypots (breach risk + compliance liability).

B2B2C needs speed

Manual review doesn’t scale. Trust must be machine-readable and human-friendly.

What a Trust Pod contains

A Trust Pod is metadata-first: hashed signals + signatures + rules + consent gates. No custody. No document storage.

✓ Signals

Logins, checks, references, eligibility, reputation — captured as trust facts.

✓ Signatures

Issuer / verifier / organization attestations with provenance.

✓ Rules + Consent

Freshness thresholds, flags, scoped sharing, expiry/revocation.

Universal outputs (same pod)

The badge is not the product. It’s one rendering. The product is the pod.

Snapshot

Human view: score + freshness + flags. Fast, shareable, safe.

Verifier View

Audit view: provenance + rules + thresholds + consent scope.

JSON / QR

Machine + offline: integrate into flows without collecting documents.

Built for B2B2C (trust at scale, without custody)

Platforms and enterprises don’t want to store more documents. They want fewer losses, faster onboarding, and less liability. Passpod deploys trust as a portable, expiring trust layer.

Marketplaces

Reduce scams, chargebacks, and fake sellers without forcing blanket KYC.

Remote hiring

Stop chasing PDFs. Reusable org/manager signals. Freshness by policy.

Support + access

Defend against AI social engineering: trust by provenance, not “claims.”

Outcome focus: fewer manual reviews, fewer fraud losses, less sensitive data stored, and trust that travels across products.

FAQ

Is this identity?

No. Identity says who you are. Passpod says whether a transaction is safe right now.

Where are documents stored?

Not on Passpod. Passpod stores metadata-first trust signals (hashes + signatures + rules).

Is this just badges?

No. A badge is a snapshot output. The product is the Trust Pod.
