Why BaseID

Why BaseID

Standards-compliant digital identity infrastructure designed for privacy, security, and compliance.

Multi-Format Credentials

Issue and verify W3C Verifiable Credentials, ISO mDL, SD-JWT, and AnonCreds from a single platform.

Privacy by Design

Selective disclosure, predicate proofs, and zero-knowledge protocols protect user privacy at every layer.

Standards-Driven

Designed for compliance with government trust frameworks and cross-jurisdictional interoperability.

Open Standards

Implements W3C, ISO 18013-5, IETF, and OpenID Foundation standards for maximum interoperability.

Pure Rust

Memory-safe, high-performance implementation with no runtime dependencies. Cross-platform via WASM and FFI bindings.

Open Source

Dual-licensed under Apache 2.0 and MIT. Full transparency, community contributions, and enterprise-friendly licensing.

Built on a Layered Architecture

BaseID’s modular design separates concerns across foundation, credential lifecycle, privacy, protocols, and application layers — enabling you to use exactly what you need.

  • Foundation layer: cryptographic primitives, DID resolution, key management
  • Credential formats: W3C VC, ISO mDL, SD-JWT, AnonCreds
  • Protocol suites: OID4VCI, OID4VP, SIOP, DIDComm
  • Privacy: selective disclosure, predicate proofs, unlinkable presentations

Issue a Verifiable Credential in Rust 
use baseid_vc::{Credential, CredentialBuilder};
use baseid_crypto::Ed25519Signer;

let signer = Ed25519Signer::generate()?;

let credential = CredentialBuilder::new()
    .issuer("did:web:example.ca")
    .subject("did:key:z6Mkf...")
    .add_type("CanadianDriversLicence")
    .add_claim("givenName", "Alice")
    .add_claim("province", "ON")
    .build(&signer)
    .await?;

Enterprise-Ready Managed Services

Deploy production-grade identity infrastructure without managing the complexity. Our managed platform handles scaling, compliance, and operations.

  • Multi-tenant credential issuance and verification
  • Trust registry and governance framework management
  • Real-time credential status and revocation
  • Compliance reporting and audit trails
