Layak — Credentials You Own

Credentials you own.

A worker's skills, training and history — proven anywhere, held by them. Not held over them.

For the millions who keep hospitality running — and have nothing to show for it. Layak turns a working life into a record the worker carries, controls, and truly owns.

THE PROBLEM

Your record lives in everyone's hands but yours.

A worker's skills, training and history get scattered across agency files, a manager's memory, a form filled in once and never seen again. Change jobs and you start over — proving yourself from scratch, with nothing to carry. The systems meant to record your work end up owning it, tracking it, and leaking it. You do the work; someone else holds the proof.

NO GATEKEEPERS

Step up when it suits you.

The gate is open — it has no door. You walk through on your own terms. Recognition, portability, better roles: each one an offer, never a requirement. You move toward formal recognition at your own pace, and every step is a benefit you gain, not a hoop you jump. Nothing watches you. Nothing is filed away without you.

HOW IT WORKS

Four steps, and the record is yours.

No app to log into, no company holding your file — the credential lives with you and proves itself anywhere.

01

Create

A skill, a training course, a completed job — an employer, trainer or body issues it to you as a verifiable credential. It's signed, so it can't be faked.

02

Hold

The credential lives on your own phone, in your hands. Not in a company database, not on a central server — yours to keep.

03

Present

When a job needs proof, you show exactly what's asked for and nothing more. You choose what to reveal, each time.

04

Verify

Whoever you show it to can confirm it's genuine on the spot — offline, person to person, with no phone-home to any authority and no lookup in any database.

FOR THE WORKER

Your work is yours to carry.

Years of skill, training and good work often live in someone else's records — an agency file, a manager's memory, a form you never see again. Layak puts that record in your hands, where it belongs.

Layak Seal

THE LAYAK SEAL

How anyone can check a credential is genuine, in seconds, offline.

WHAT YOU HOLD

Your skills and history

Training completed, roles worked, references earned — kept as verifiable credentials you carry and present yourself.

YOUR CHOICE

You decide who sees it

Show what a job needs, to the person who needs it. No one can quietly build a file on you behind your back.

NO SIGNAL NEEDED

Proven anywhere

Verification works offline, person to person. No phone-home to head office, no database lookup, no waiting.

PEACE OF MIND

Lose your phone, keep your credentials

Your trusted people — or a private backup only you can open — bring your record straight back. Nothing central to lose.

THROUGH THE GATE

The same system, seen from the other side — for the people who build on it.

The candi bentar — Bali's split gate — stands open, with no door. It marks a threshold: one world behind, another ahead. To pass through is not to be let in by a gatekeeper, but to cross because you are ready. Layak — worthy.

FOR PARTNERS AND LICENSEES

Decentralised identity, built to be licensed.

Layak is the first application on a patented credential stack. The cryptography is the foundation; the worker experience is the proof it works in the real world.

TECH LAYER & PATENTS BlueHat

The parent technology. Holds both patents and licenses the stack to applications like Layak. Everything else is built on this foundation.

SELF-SERVE CREDENTIALS Patent 1

Individuals and organisations create, hold and present verifiable credentials locally.

  • Verified offline or peer-to-peer, no phone-home to any authority
  • No database lookups, no behavioural tracking, no central honeypot
  • Optional co-signing, revocation and governance
  • Low issuance barrier, ecosystems form organically
CREDENTIAL & IDENTITY DELEGATION Patent 2

One party authorises another to act on their behalf with a third, scoped, time-bound and revocable.

  • Public-key cryptography, no centralised authority
  • Cryptographically verifiable audit trail
  • Powers legal, enterprise and government use cases
FIRST APPLICATION Layak

Worker-held credentials for Bali hospitality: skills, training and work history, owned and controlled by the worker. A standalone brand licensing the BlueHat stack, and living proof the model works outside the lab.

Zero

Phone-home calls required to verify a credential

Offline

Peer-to-peer verification with no central lookup

Granted, patented technologies underpinning the stack
