VeryAI provides a palm-scan based biometric system that runs on standard smartphones and produces irreversible feature representations rather than storing handprints. The company claims its palm scans are about 10x more accurate than FaceID, with a single-palm false acceptance rate of 1 in 10 million and dual-palm error rates around 1 in 100 trillion. Its backend combines Solana for scalability with zero-knowledge proofs and a partnership with Light Protocol to preserve user privacy. VeryAI positions palm geometry as less biased than facial recognition and aims to certify "verifiably human" interactions for fintechs and social platforms. The leadership team includes founder and CEO Zach Meltzer and Chief Science Officer Hua Yang, who holds 50+ patents and has experience at Leap Motion and Redrock Biometrics. The company plans to use its recent seed funding to expand integrations and product offerings to dozens of financial providers and apps.
