Tangicred builds infrastructure that ties digital credentials to physical objects. Access is granted by what you hold, not what you remember.
Pre-revenue · Self-fundedDigital access today relies on knowledge-based factors—passwords, PINs, recovery phrases. These can be phished, leaked, or forgotten. Possession-based access shifts the root of trust to a physical credential. If you have it, you’re in. If you don’t, you’re not.
Tangicred is building the infrastructure layer that makes this practical. We are focused on one deployment, one integration, and one clear proof of concept before scaling.
A physical NFC credential is paired with a digital identity. Authentication requires possession of the credential.
A physical NFC device is provisioned and bound to a digital identity.
Access is requested by tapping the credential against a reader or compatible device.
The system validates the credential and authorizes access. No password required.
Tangicred is early-stage by design. We are building deliberately, not quickly.
No outside capital. Founder commitment ensures decisions are made for the right reasons.
Controlled scope. A single integration to validate the model before expanding.
We are building the layer others will build on. That requires getting the foundation right first.
Honest about our stage. Revenue follows a working product, not the other way around.
NFC-based digital credentials are the core building block. A physical token serves as the access key to digital systems.
The credential exists as a tangible object. It cannot be copied remotely or intercepted over a network.
Designed to work with existing NFC-capable hardware. No specialized readers required.
Credentials are provisioned through a managed process. Every credential is accounted for.
