Verify once, then prove it anywhere
PITCHED AT THE DUBAI NIGHT ON 18 AUGUST 2026
Every regulated service re-runs the same identity check from scratch, so a person hands over their documents again and again and each copy becomes someone else's breach risk. Passtru is building a compliance-grade identity layer the user owns, for people and increasingly for the AI agents acting on their behalf.
Identity verification is repeated because nobody trusts anyone else's version of it. The result is that a single person's passport sits in dozens of systems, each an independent liability, and each new service costs them the same twenty minutes. The cost is paid by everyone and owned by no one.
Passtru puts the credential in the user's hands and makes it reusable, which only works if it is built to the standard a regulator would accept rather than as a smoother sign-in. Extending the same model to AI agents is the forward-looking part: once an agent is booking and paying on someone's behalf, the question of what it is authorised to do stops being hypothetical.
These founders pitched at the same startup events. The room is usually the reason people find each other.
