SOWRegistry
India's First Candidate-Owned Verification Registry Vault Access: Invite-Only Cohort

The infrastructure for verified career truth.

Traditional background checks take 21 days, penalize honest career gaps, fail when previous startups shut down, and expose employers to severe DPDP Act 2026 storage liabilities. SOWRegistry flips the paradigm: candidates own their cryptographic hiring passport, and agile companies verify truth in milliseconds at zero cost.

Standardizing pre-verified candidate onboarding across India's fastest-growing technology corridors

The Structural Shift

The traditional BGV model is broken. We built the "CIBIL Score for Employment."

For twenty years, background verification in India meant employers paying slow agencies ₹3,000 per hire to manually chase old HR emails for three weeks—while forcing candidates to email raw identity PDFs over insecure threads. SOWRegistry permanently reverses this architecture.

Zero

Time-to-Hire Onboarding Delay

Instead of waiting 21 days post-offer while candidates shop counter-offers, employers inspect pre-verified SOW-ID tokens in milliseconds before Day 1.
