Latest Focus
During the midsummer holidays (here in Estonia), the development team has been working on bigger projects which will be launched over the summer. In the main, these projects are related to:
- Launching as an Identity Proofing Solution Provider (‘IPSP’), which is an important part of providing secure identity-based electronic signatures with minimum friction and cost. If a signer has a secure eID app already, then it can also be used to sign documents; and
- Digital Identity Wallets, attestation, and credentials, while the uptake of and demand for these solutions keeps picking up.
In addition, AI has arrived, and with the recent launch of the Copilot Coding Agent, eID Easy expects to deliver even more innovative solutions than before.
