Skills, verified and trusted, belong to people.
Make skills interoperable.
India solved this for credit. Before CIBIL, your repayment history sat inside whichever bank held your loan — invisible to every other lender, useless the moment you walked into a different branch. Then it became portable, and it started belonging to the person who earned it.
We're building the same thing for what people can do. A skill record that belongs to the individual and travels with them — across platforms, employers, and a working life. Proven once. Recognized everywhere.
Skills are where credit was. Earned everywhere, owned nowhere, stuck wherever they happened.
"Skills are earned by people, not by platforms. They should travel with the person who earned them."
The order of operations
Portability sounds like a distribution problem. It isn't. A skill can only travel if it can be trusted at the far end, and today most skill data is self-declared — worth nothing the moment it leaves the system that recorded it. So the sequence is fixed.
Verify first.
Everything portable has to be provable first.
Store it in a record the individual owns.
Not the platform, not the employer — the person.
Then make it move.
That's why Record starts as verification infrastructure.
Make skills interoperable — proven once, recognised everywhere.
The principles behind every decision we make.
Six things that don't move, no matter what we're building.
Trust is infrastructure, not a feature.
Not adding a verified badge to someone's product. Building the layer that hiring in India has never had.
Verification is earned, not claimed.
Anyone can write "proficient in Python." Proof comes from people who watched the work, and evidence that was validated, not uploaded.
Say what the proof actually is.
Every verified skill carries a trust level naming exactly what stands behind it.
We describe. You decide.
We don't rank candidates, set thresholds, or decide who gets seen. Our job is real information, not a verdict.
The same standard for every kind of work.
A welder and a software engineer sit in one framework. What differs is what can be traced, not who is being judged.
The record belongs to the worker.
We hold verified skills on behalf of the person who earned them, not the company that paid for the verification.
The people building the trust.
We're small. We're scrappy. And we're building something we believe in.
Backed by the best in business.
