How we work
Five rules we don’t bend.

Free, offline, no permission needed.
People never pay to prove they’re people.
Verification is always free for the person.
Your face never reaches us.
Partners check it. We get a signed result.
We label what isn’t live.
Live, Early access, Testnet or Coming soon.
We don’t sell personal data.
Your data is not our product.
Who’s behind this
A real person, on the record.

I started 5arz because verified human effort became one of the most valuable signals online — and most tools could only guess at it.
Detection guesses; we sign. That proof should be free to check and fair to the people who give it.
What we won’t do
- We won’t sell you a score. You get a signed credential you can check yourself.
- We won’t claim more than we prove. A seal shows a verified person did a thing — not that they hold only one account.
- We won’t waste your time. Businesses start free with no card. People can skip any task.
