How Can Organizations and Government Services Use Tethys for Digital ID Management?
Governments and large organizations can use Tethys to identify individuals with a single ID number each person can share across government departments and with private organizations.
Tethys Makes Digital Transformation Possible
Tethys is an electronic system that provides a universal identification number to anyone who needs it. Tethys works by using biometric data, such as a facial scan, to create a unique biometric identifier linked to an individual. Their identifier connects to information about the individual such as their name, date of birth, and current address. Tethys does not keep any other personal data.

Tethys creates a unique identity for each user. It links each identity to biometric data for the person to eliminate the possibility of duplication or identity theft. The Tethys e-ID also stores basic data points such as Name, Address, and Date of Birth.
Simple Access Management and Analysis
Tethys works with a lightweight scanning app. Simply install the Tethys scanner on any compatible device and begin digital ID verification and access analysis. Tethys is compatible with smartphones and tablets, and hsas interoperability with QR and barcode scanners.
Dashboard Data Visualization
Dashboards bring data to life with clear visualizations. Dynamic dashboards help organizations understand usage and demographic trends. When organizations possess this solid information, they can make better resource provisioning decisions.
Scalable Up to Millions of People
The Tethys system can manage digital ID for hundreds of millions of people. As people reach checkpoints, they can use Tethys to verify quickly and frictionlessly. Organizations can track their total enrollment, daily scans, and demographic changes.
Census and Demographic Auto Updates
Organizations can access their census data in real time. When people move to a new town or change services, they can update their details in the Tethys system. Automatic updates served to partners lay the groundwork for an efficient government census procedure.
Protect Budgets with Efficient Administration
Adding new users costs pennies. There is no complicated paper bureaucracy to maintain. People can update their personal information electronically with no increase in the administrative burden for the government or organization.
Is Tethys Better for Individuals?
Absolutely. Imagine a society where people can prove their identity with a quick scan instead of a hunt through the car or their purse for a piece of plastic. Imagine a time when digital records move seamlessly with everyone and no one wastes time filling in repetitive forms. That’s the promise of digital identity systems.
Tethys is the first and best digital identity system to be commercially available across Canada.
Paper and plastic cards can be lost, stolen, or put through the washer. A Tethys digital identity is indestructible. Biometric data, such as fingerprints and face scans, ensure every digital identity is connected to the right person.
The average Canadian shows their driving license 1-2 times per week. Employee ID cards, health cards, and other ID are also required regularly. Tethys eliminates the need for carrying these bits of paper and plastic. A simple smartphone app can prove identity. Forgot
Applying for a new bank account, a loan, or any official act requires proof of identity. Instead of dragging out two utility bills or a passport, citizens can open an app on their phone and provide proof of identity and address in seconds.
Tethys doesn’t need to be recycled or thrown into a landfill every few years. ID cards are only 30-40 grams of plastic, but there are hundreds of millions of them. Tethys can help us all protect the environment just a bit.
