Overview

Civic Technologies is a blockchain-based identity verification and management platform founded to provide decentralized identity solutions. The company focuses on enabling secure, privacy-preserving identity verification through its Civic Wallet and identity verification services. While Civic operates in the identity verification space, it is not primarily an AdTech company in the traditional sense of advertising technology. Instead, it serves adjacent markets where identity verification is crucial, including compliance, onboarding, and fraud prevention.
