Revolutionizing Student Verification: The Polygon ZKP Technology Solution

**Vision: ** Our vision is to revolutionize student verification with Polygon ZKP technology, ensuring data privacy and efficiency for students and student offers providers.

Overview: The current student verification system faces several challenges, prompting the need for innovation and security in the form of Polygon Zero-Knowledge Proofs (Polygon ZKP). The objective is to streamline and safeguard student verification processes, making it more accessible and privacy-centric for students, and preventing the misuse of offers and discounts.

Challenges in Existing System:

1.Repetitive Data Submission: Students encounter the inconvenience of repeatedly submitting their personal information for third-party verification when seeking offers and discounts across different platforms (e.g., Apple, Spotify, LinkedIn etc etc). This process lacks data privacy and can be frustrating for users.

2.Limited Verification Options: Some students are unable to access offers and discounts due to third-party verifiers' strict requirements, such as the need for a college email address. In many Indian colleges, such email addresses are not provided, creating a barrier to accessing these benefits.

3.Post-Graduation Misuse: There is a risk of post-graduation misuse of student discounts and offers, as the current system does not effectively prevent former students from accessing these privileges.

4.Varied Verification Documentation: Third-party verifiers often request different types of documents for verification, which raises concerns about the privacy of student data. A standardized approach is needed to ensure data security and privacy.

**Solution: ** Utilizing Polygon ZKP technology, we aim to develop a more efficient and secure student verification system. This solution will offer privacy protection and streamline the verification process for students, making it accessible to a broader audience.

**Market Potential: ** With notable competitors operating in the multi-million-dollar market, our innovation in student verification has the potential to capture a significant share of this market.
