Keyo is building the first consent-based, privacy-focused, global identity network. With a contactless palm scan, users can make payments, unlock doors, redeem tickets, clock in and out, and identify themselves.

Keyo uses near-infrared light and the hemoglobin in blood to map the internal vein structure of your palm, registering approximately 5 million distinct points of reference.

The sensor then converts those reference points into a unique, encrypted key, and deletes the raw biometric data. This key is virtually unbreakable and cannot be used to reverse engineer biometric data or create a physical model to fool security systems.
