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 QR — without storing documents.
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.
-
1Create a pod
Hiring, marketplace, vendor onboarding, eligibility, access — start anywhere. -
2Add signals
Trusted logins, org attestations, manager checks, issuer/verifier signatures. -
3Share the right output
Snapshot / Verifier view / JSON / QR — same pod, different render.
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.
Deepfake calls, forged PDFs, synthetic references, “verified” screenshots.
Document vaults become honeypots (breach risk + compliance liability).
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.
Logins, checks, references, eligibility, reputation — captured as trust facts.
Issuer / verifier / organization attestations with provenance.
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.
Human view: score + freshness + flags. Fast, shareable, safe.
Audit view: provenance + rules + thresholds + consent scope.
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.
Reduce scams, chargebacks, and fake sellers without forcing blanket KYC.
Stop chasing PDFs. Reusable org/manager signals. Freshness by policy.
Defend against AI social engineering: trust by provenance, not “claims.”

Not on Passpod. Passpod stores metadata-first trust signals (hashes + signatures + rules).
No. A badge is a snapshot output. The product is the Trust Pod.
