T Stamp Inc, doing business as Trust Stamp Inc (NASDAQ:IDAI, EURONEXT:AIID), announced that it has unveiled its proprietary biometric-binding technology as “the solution to the systemic failure of age-verification laws that are collapsing under real-world pressure”.
The company said its announcement comes as the UK’s landmark Online Safety Act proves ineffective just weeks after enforcement began, and a “ticking time bomb" of similar legislation creates an imminent compliance crisis for companies across the US.
“Age verification software is a fast-growing sector with Market Intelo’s Age Verification Solution 2023 Market Research Report predicting revenue to grow from $1.45 billion in 2024, to $5.12 billion by 2033, and yet there is still a dangerous reliance upon circumventible legacy systems,” Trust Stamp president Andrew Gowasack said in a statement.
Trust Stamp noted the company’s TrustedAge technology capable of fixing the flaw in the system.
TrustedAge is a biometric key, permanently locked to one user, with a live biometric capture confirming the rightful owner is present for every session, making the credential worthless to anyone else, according to the company.
As well, Trust Stamp reported that a paper presenting the company’s novel approach, combining Zero Knowledge Proofs with Biometric Bound Credentials, was accepted for presentation at the IEEE-sponsored Biometrics Special Interest Group (BIOSIG 2025) conference, inviting rigorous peer-review and recognizing novel contributions.
The company’s technology was also tested in a case study under Australia’s Age Assurance Technology Trial for on-device processing.
The test found the technology to be suitable for deployment in the Challenge 25 policy area with a Mean Predicted Age of 18.2 against the Mean Actual Age of 17.81.
