How it works
One credential, from issue to audit.
Acredex keeps a vendor's credential in step with their registration, from the day it is issued to the day anyone checks it.
Claim your registration once. Three automated checks run and your credential issues.
Every check is deterministic and recorded in a signed report anchored with the credential.
Show your standing on your website, in RFPs, and on procurement profiles.
Web component Scan to verify
Static badge and QR JSON
REST API
Badges are bound to your verified domains, so a copied badge on another site does not show as verified.
Buyers click the badge and see live status. No login, no phone call.
Responses are signed, so the badge rejects anything that did not come from Acredex.
When registration status changes, every badge changes with it.
Registry reports deregisteredDetected on the next scheduled sync
Credential revokedStatus list bit set, audit event written
Live badges updatePushed to every open page
Revocation anchored on-chainPublicly checkable by anyone
Shown everywhere within 60 seconds
Temporary registry holds suspend a credential. Only terminal changes revoke it.
Anyone can check a credential without trusting Acredex.
Every issuance and status change is hash-chained and anchored, so tampering is detectable.

In development
Face mesh and voice validation for representatives.
An optional, consent-based step that lets an authorized representative prove they are the same verified person each time they sign for their organization, without Acredex keeping a photo or recording.2
- 01
Face mesh scan
A live camera capture maps the geometry of the face as a 3D mesh, with a liveness check to reject photos, screens, and masks.
- 02
Voice validation
The representative reads a short randomized phrase. The voice sample is checked for liveness and matched to their enrolled voice profile.
- 03
Protected template
Face and voice features are combined into a protected template. Raw images and audio are discarded when the session ends.
- 04
Bound to the credential
A successful match raises the representative's assurance level and can be required for high-risk actions such as transferring authority.
- Opt-in only
- No raw images or audio stored
- Never on-chain
- Independent privacy review before release
Built for trust
Infrastructure that holds up to a government audit.
Automatic by default
Clean applications issue and update from registry data with no manual steps. Only exceptions wait for a person, with every check laid out.
Always current
Badges stream live status, so a buyer never sees yesterday's answer.
Canadian residency
Built for Canadian hosting, with protected data encrypted at rest and in transit. Hosting is agreed with each customer before onboarding.
Tamper evident
Credentials, status changes, and audit history are anchored on a permissioned ledger.
Passkey sign-in
Phishing-resistant sign-in and a fresh passkey check for every sensitive action.
Nothing personal on-chain
Only hashes and status are public. Names and identity data stay in Protected B storage.
Bilingual
Every screen, badge, and email in English and French.
