“APIs Align With W3C Standards But Advanced Features Need Additional Support Access”

3.0
Jan 5, 2026
The platform provides a solid foundation for decentralized identity and verifiable credentials with strong focus on open standards and interoperability. For our POCs. was the flexibility of the architecture and the ability to integrate with existing enterprise systems without being locked into a proprietary model. The APIs are generally well-structured and align with W3C standards which makes it easier for us easier to prototype and validate real world use cases. The documentation depth varies by feature and certain advanced or newer capabilities require direct support engament to fully understand.
