Introduction

The revolutionizing platform, Shomel, developed by WISH System Consulting, aims to democratize the proof verification process utilizing next-generation Web3 technology. Launched on December 24, 2025, this certificate service integrates decentralized ID (DID) and verifiable credentials (VC), enabling users to issue, hold, and verify essential documents securely.

The Need for Shomel

In today's digital age, our skills and achievements heavily depend on paper certificates or centralized databases which pose numerous risks, including potential loss, easy forgery, and cumbersome verification processes. Particularly as online transactions and hiring activities become increasingly prevalent, there’s a heightened need for immediate proof of one's achievements. To address this, WISH System Consulting has developed Shomel, a user-friendly platform offering advanced security and privacy while aiming to support local businesses and educational institutions.

Key Features of Shomel

1. All-in-One Package: The Shomel platform merges an issuance system, user digital wallets, and verification scanners, allowing users to operate within the DID/VC ecosystem easily and without requiring specialized knowledge from day one.

2. Tamper-Proof Verification: Shomel utilizes digital seals (electronic signatures) guaranteeing the authenticity of issued documents. Users can affirm the integrity of certificate contents in real-time by leveraging smartphone or PC approvals from issuers. This feature is particularly essential for high-stakes environments such as academic degrees and professional credentials.

3. Self-Sovereign Data Management: Users can manage their certificates through their smartphones, revealing information only to selected parties, embodying the Web3 ethos of individual data control.

4. Flexible Integration with Existing Systems: Shomel offers an adaptable API that seamlessly integrates with current human resource management systems and membership management systems, allowing for automated certificate issuance workflows.

Utilization Flow: Proving Trust in Three Steps

For example, at an event, the process to obtain a certificate is simple:

• - Step 01: Issuance - Organizers can issue certificates via smartphone or PC.
• - Step 02: Holding - Participants can securely store certificates on their smartphones by scanning QR codes.
• - Step 03: Verification - Scanning the presented certificates at reception immediately confirms their authenticity.

Free Version Launched

In an effort to promote platform adoption, WISH System Consulting has launched a free version designed for individuals and small-scale verifications. Users can test this innovative proof platform using just their smartphones. For organizations seeking to incorporate Shomel into existing workflows or desire customizations, enterprise plans will be offered.

Future Prospects

Looking ahead, Shomel plans to expand its applications by collaborating with local governments to visualize regional contributions and digitize reference checks in the job market. The goal is to establish Shomel in 100 domestic organizations by the end of 2028 and ultimately build a cross-border network of trust to enhance individual potential within society.

The Developer’s Vision

Matsumura from the Development Team shares, "In an age where online interactions are commonplace, I felt a sense of frustration in trusting someone based solely on their profile. My desire to eliminate doubts about others’ credibility fueled this project. Shomel empowers individuals to manage their educational, occupational, and skill-related information, creating a society where getting on a new path feels secure and assured."
