Visual highlights

A quick look at the states, flows, and artifacts that made this launch feel polished.

Sign-up step 1 — face extraction
Face cropping UI confirms that the document photo is ready for liveness comparisons.
Sign-up step 2 — ID data extraction
Parsed metadata is surfaced for review before anchoring the credential on-chain.
Sign-up step 3 — live capture & liveness
Animated prompts guide the user through blink and angle challenges in real time.
Sign-up step 4 — face matching

Project features

Crafted to feel human, performant, and scalable

HashTrust reimagines onboarding for banks and fintechs by pairing blockchain-backed data storage with GenAI fraud analysis. I architected the end-to-end stack—from the Next.js 14 control surface to FastAPI services, smart-contract anchoring, and observability—so compliance teams can verify users in minutes without sacrificing privacy or control.

🔐Feature

Decentralized storage

Identity artifacts are hashed to a consortium chain so auditors can verify issuance order and tamper attempts instantly.

BlockchainAudit
🧠Feature

GenAI fraud detection

Face liveness, similarity scoring, and behavioral checks run through GenAI models to flag suspicious activity in real time.

GenAIRisk
🗝️Feature

API & key governance

Single-use API keys, request logs, and analytics dashboards give organizations granular control over integrations.

SecurityAPIs
🛡️Feature

Session-based auth

Secure session cookies replace brittle access tokens so users stay logged in across the workspace without token drift.

AuthSessions
