VESS Labs Launches the 'VESS Launch Program'

In a significant step towards digital transformation, VESS Labs, based in Shibuya, Tokyo, has announced the launch of its revolutionary VESS Launch Program. Beginning on January 13, 2026, this program promises to help organizations implement Verifiable Credentials (VC) swiftly and efficiently, offering a complete package that covers planning, issuing, presenting, and verifying digital credentials within just three weeks.

Streamlined Process from Planning to Execution

The primary objective of the VESS Launch Program is to streamline the process surrounding digital credentials. Specifically, it aims to transform the often lengthy proof-of-concept (PoC) phases into actionable insights for implementation.

The program encompasses a wide range of services, starting from design and requirements gathering to the actual implementation of issuing, presenting, and verifying credentials. This allows organizations to not just conduct PoCs but to also gain tangible materials required for informed decision-making regarding the broader deployment of digital credentials.

The Challenges with Digital Credentials

Digital credentials, like membership cards and tourist passes, have become increasingly relevant. However, organizations often face several challenges, leading to extended PoC durations. Key issues include determining what to include in the schema, defining the verification process, and addressing the integration with existing systems while managing risks related to sensitive personal information.

VESS Labs is uniquely positioned to mitigate these challenges by offering a comprehensive package that clearly outlines the decision-making criteria in just three weeks.

Overview of the VESS Launch Program

The VESS Launch Program enables organizations to experience the fundamental processes of VC—which include issuer, holder, and verifier—within three weeks. In supporting various scenarios, VESS has extensively upgraded its tools and framework, VESSCredential, to meet the diverse needs of clients.

What the Program Offers

1. VC Design Support: Assistance in defining proof items and operational flows.
2. Implementation of Issuing & Verification: A minimal configuration to make it functional, covering user interfaces and APIs.
3. Presentation via Wallet: Access for users to present their credentials.
4. Risk Analysis: Proactively identifying potential hurdles in full implementation.
