Mission
Make the world safer by building trust and preventing fraud
Problem
The internet is perfect for fraud - nearly all online accounts are pseudo-anonymous and easily created - meaning scammers can repeatedly commit crimes and never get caught.
Our Strategy
Security and privacy > growth
Tech companies today have one goal: grow at all costs to maximize short-term shareholder value. This leads to poor security and invasive data practices.
We refuse to do this. Oath enforces security and privacy with identity verification, full encryption of personal data, and strict no data sharing unless explicitly permitted.
Our growth will be slower than others. But we believe putting users over profits is the right long-term strategy.
Save time, money, and headache
Getting scammed sucks. Existing protection tools are expensive, reactive, and don’t ban fraudsters forever.
We address the root cause. Oath cracks down on fraud by verifying the identity of users, preventing the creation of new accounts, and blocking repeat scammers. Less fraud means we charge users less for the same services, making commerce online cheaper and more efficient.
We want to be the Costco of technology, saving money and time for our loyal customers.
Be the glue
Identity and reputation are isolated between platforms, communities, and people. This is by design because platforms want to keep you using only their products. Due to lack of integration, fraudsters can repeat the same scams without ever getting caught.
By building tools that integrate into existing platforms, Oath connects communities across the web into a collaborative safety network that grows stronger with every transaction.
