It’s not public yet — the identity wallet is still in private beta.

The idea is that users control their identity. They create a Didit account where they can verify themselves, add credentials, revoke connections, or delete everything at any time. We don’t store raw biometrics or documents in the wallet layer — only derived attributes like estimated_age, is_human, is_unique, or a face embedding used for matching.

Services request specific scopes (similar to “Sign in with X”), like is_over_18 or is_human, and the user explicitly approves what gets shared.

On age detection: it’s mainly for low-risk age-gating (social, gaming, adult content, etc.), where asking every user for an ID kills conversion. For higher-risk cases you’d still use full ID verification.
