|---|---|---|
| Hardware | Special orb or face scan | None — a phone and a standard ID check |
| What’s proven | A unique biometric identity | A live, ID-verified human — bound to the action |
| Biometric data | Often centrally enrolled | Checked by our partners; 5arz never receives it |
| Verify it | Through the provider’s system | Anyone, offline, against public keys |

Questions, answered
What is proof of personhood?
Evidence that a real, ID-verified, live person — not a bot — is behind an account or action. 5arz issues it as a signed credential anyone can verify offline.
How is this different from orb or face-scan personhood?
No special hardware — a phone and a standard ID check. Our partners, Stripe Identity and Didit, check the ID and selfie. 5arz never receives them; sites get only a signed result.
How do I raise the cost of bots in rewards or a marketplace?
Gate the action on a personhood credential, bound to a verified, live person with a stable anonymized reference you can rate-limit. It does not prove one account per person — pair it with your own uniqueness signal if you need that.
What does it cost?
Checking a credential is free at any volume. Free plan: 1,000 seals a month. Starter $99, Growth $499, Scale $2,499 a month. People never pay to be verified.
