Key Benefits

Why teams choose this solution

Tamper-Evident Records

Each credential is cryptographically signed and anchored to a permissionless blockchain — modification breaks verification.

3-Second Public Verification

Employers and any third party can verify a graduate in under three seconds — no calls to your registrar.

Convocation-Scale Issuance

Bulk-mint thousands of degrees in a single batch via CSV upload or direct ERP API integration.

Multi-Entry / Multi-Exit

Native NEP 2020 ABC support — credit-mapped transcripts, certificates, and micro-credentials.

Lifelong Credentials

Anchored on permissionless rails — credentials survive vendor changes, server migrations, or business closure.

Frequently asked

Questions teams ask before adopting

How long does institutional onboarding take?+
Most universities are live in 1–2 weeks — covering DID identity setup, NAD account provisioning, DigiLocker pull-URI registration, and one batch issuance pilot.
Can existing alumni records be backfilled?+
Yes. We support historical issuance for past cohorts via CSV — each old credential is anchored on-chain with its original issuance date as metadata.
What happens if a degree needs revocation?+
Revocation is a separate on-chain transaction. The credential's verification status flips immediately, with a tamper-evident audit trail of who revoked and why.
Do we need to host any blockchain infrastructure?+
No. Gradify handles all on-chain operations as a managed service. Your registrar team uses a standard web dashboard or our REST API.
How does NAAC reporting work?+
Issuance and verification analytics map to NAAC IIQA / AQAR formats with exports for criteria 1.4, 2.6, 4.4, 5.3, 6.2, and 7.1 — generated on demand from the dashboard.
