Driven forward by community

As a community, we believe that software identity should be sovereign, verifiable, and open. We’ve built Auths so that every developer can cryptographically prove what they ship—without relying on centralized authorities. Secure software benefits everyone.

KERI FoundationWebOfTrust

The Auths story

Auths began with a simple question: why does every software signing system require you to trust a centralized authority? Using KERI (Key Event Receipt Infrastructure), we built a protocol where your identity is a cryptographic log—not a username on someone else’s server.

Today, Auths is developed by an engaged open-source community pursuing a singular goal: making decentralized software identity the industry standard. From the CLI that signs your releases, to the WebAssembly verifier that runs in any browser, every component is designed to be sovereign, portable, and zero-trust by default.

Recent updates

  • The Auths CLI now supports signing Docker container images with full KERI identity binding.
  • Public Registry v1 is live at public.auths.dev — search identities, packages, and repositories.
  • auths-verifier compiled to WebAssembly enables zero-trust, client-side verification in any browser.

Initiatives

  • Multi-party threshold signing for team-managed packages is in active development.
  • Radicle forge attestation support is landing in the next CLI release.
  • KERI witness network integration for decentralized key event receipt infrastructure.
