Authenticate – Verify – Transact
Avoco apply a “continuous innovation” approach to development to keep ahead of the competition.
Our mantra is simple: to provide great identity tools to give industry the versatility to better compete.
Avoco work across the identity space to innovate – adding benefit across the spectrum of uses of online identity and identity data. These areas include:
Open Loop Identity Network Layer
Avoco has created the world’s first open loop approach to identity.
An open loop bridge is a better, more flexible way for consumers and citizens to bring identity information such as that stored in an identity wallet or a bank, to the ecosystem stakeholders. But an open ecosystem requires a ‘network layer’ to provide the rails needed to bridge the gap between data formats, protocols, and security, and that can connect each part of a complex identity ecosystem.
The Avoco open loop network layer is a powerful, interoperable, malleable, and extensible system that can deliver trusted transactions that don’t necessarily follow the money but that do follow the data.

BitCardID
A way to visualise blockchain entries. Customers can see a set of digital cards in a wallet. Each card represents a verified attribute that is anchored on a blockchain or distributed ledger. Services can consumer these cards under user consent. Cards can be used to minimally disclose user data helping to meet compliance requirements such as GDPR.
Assured, Versatile, Identity Verification
Verification is a hurdle to the creation and uptake of assured identities. Avoco are working across a number of areas, including Machine Learning to improve the way in which wide demographic users have identity checks performed during registration and post registration; we see verification as an ongoing process – user verification and assurance is a lifecycle and part of the life history of an identity service. This approach provides a mechanism for better CX, more robust security, and the ability to develop relationships that stand the test of time.
