Making credentials
trustworthy and portable
We're building the infrastructure for verifiable digital credentials - helping organizations issue tamper-proof credentials and individuals share them with confidence.
The problem we're solving
Credential fraud costs over $16.6 billion annually.↗ Fake diplomas, forged certificates, and fabricated qualifications undermine trust in education and employment.
Meanwhile, legitimate credential holders face weeks of delays when employers need to verify their qualifications. The verification process involves phone calls, emails, and manual checks - wasting time and resources.
Aho solves both problems with cryptographically verifiable digital credentials that can be verified instantly while preserving holder privacy.
Our principles
The values that guide everything we build
Trust through cryptography
We use proven cryptographic standards - ECDSA signatures, JSON Web Tokens, and W3C Verifiable Credentials - to make fraud mathematically impossible.
Privacy by design
Holders control their data. Selective disclosure lets people share only what's necessary - prove you have a degree without revealing your GPA.
Open standards
Built on W3C Verifiable Credentials, DID:web, and SD-JWT. No vendor lock-in - credentials issued on Aho work anywhere.
Instant verification
Why wait days or weeks? Credentials should be verifiable in milliseconds - whether via API, QR code scan, or web portal.
Built for everyone
Whether you're a university issuing diplomas, an employer verifying qualifications, or an individual managing your credentials - we've built for you.
Compliance ready
GDPR, FERPA, and audit-ready from day one. Data export, deletion requests, and full versioning built into the platform.
