Understanding Humanity

Introduction to Humanity's biometric identity verification system, architecture, and core concepts for developers.

Welcome to the Humanity Developer Documentation. This resource provides comprehensive technical guidance for integrating Humanity into on-chain and off-chain systems, with a strong emphasis on privacy and decentralization.

The documentation covers the protocol’s architecture, setup instructions for both testnet and mainnet, integration workflows, and a full API reference. Humanity enables secure, privacy-preserving Proof-of-Humanity verification using biometric data, ensuring that user identities can be authenticated without compromising personal information. Use this guide to build applications that incorporate human uniqueness and trust, while maintaining user privacy and data sovereignty by design.
