Brief

OpenAlice Passport (Soul Vault — Verification Layer)

The identity verification and provenance layer of the Soul Vault product line. Passport issues W3C Verifiable Credentials from a soul bundle stored in Vault, maintains a public verification registry (anyone can check "is this content certified by identity X?"), and integrates C2PA provenance into media assets. No blockchain — verification is backed by a traditional PKI registry with ed25519 keys anchored in the Vault. Passport turns a Vault-stored identity into a portable, machine-verifiable credential that can be attached to AI-generated content as proof of consent and provenance. Status is proposed — engine built alongside Vault, pre-gate, waitlist-only.

Audience

Audience — OpenAlice Passport

Who pays: Content creators who want provenance certificates on their AI-generated content; platforms needing to verify consent before publishing AI-generated likenesses. Who uses: The individual identity-holder (gets the credential); verifiers (platforms, legal reviewers, journalists) who query the public registry. Why they care: C2PA and W3C VC adoption is accelerating as deepfake legislation catches up globally. Passport makes OpenAlice's platform the compliance layer that turns a legal burden into a product feature. Where we reach them: Digital media lawyers, C2PA working group community, platform trust-and-safety teams. Currently waitlist only.
