TAGBASE trust infrastructure visualization - connecting physical objects to their digital identity

    The trust infrastructure for Physical objects

    We give physical items an uncopyable and easily verifiable digital identity.

    The one-stop solution for your enterprise

    Four critical challenges

    The problems we Solve

    Physical products face interconnected trust challenges across their entire lifecycle—from factory to resale.

    Digital product passport compliance

    The EU digital product passport regulation requires brands to provide transparent product lifecycle data. Non-compliance means market access restrictions and significant penalties.

    Consequences

    • Loss of EU market access for non-compliant products
    • Significant regulatory fines and penalties
    • Complex data requirements across the supply chain

    How TAGBASE solves it

    TAGBASE provides ready-to-use digital product passports linked to each physical item via NFC. All required lifecycle data is accessible by simply tapping the product with a phone, ensuring full regulatory compliance.

    Stop counterfeits

    Counterfeit goods cost brands an estimated $467B annually (OECD/EUIPO). Consumers can't distinguish fakes from originals, and traditional anti-counterfeit measures like holograms or QR codes are easily copied.

    Consequences

    • Brand reputation damage and lost revenue
    • Consumer health and safety risks
    • Legal liability for undetected fakes

    How TAGBASE solves it

    TAGBASE embeds uncopyable NFC identities into every product. Consumers verify authenticity by simply tapping the product with their phone—no app required. Each scan generates real-time analytics and business intelligence.

    Prevent gray market imports

    Authentic products are diverted outside official distribution channels. Distributors exploit regional price differences, undermining authorized partners and eroding brand value.

    Consequences

    • $400B+ lost to gray market diversion annually
    • Channel conflict with authorized retailers
    • Products sold without warranty or support

    How TAGBASE solves it

    TAGBASE provides end-to-end supply chain traceability. Track every product from factory to end customer, detect unauthorized channel movement, and get instant alerts when products appear in wrong regions.

    Build secondary market trust

    Resale platforms face two critical trust gaps: sellers listing items they don't possess, and sellers who aren't rightful owners. Buyers pay for products that may never arrive or are stolen.

    Consequences

    • Billions lost to fraud on resale platforms
    • Stolen goods entering the market undetected
    • Buyers unable to verify seller legitimacy

    How TAGBASE solves it

    The TAGBASE browser extension lets sellers prove physical access and ownership via NFC scans with timestamped, location-verified proofs—bringing trust to every secondary market transaction.

    Physical objects can't prove who they are

    Without an uncopyable digital identity, physical objects remain anonymous—unable to be verified, tracked, or connected to the applications that need them.

    No identity

    Physical objects have no native way to prove what they are or where they came from.

    Disconnected

    Objects exist in isolation—with no link to their digital records or the systems that manage them.

    Unverifiable

    Anyone can make claims about an object, but there's no simple way to verify them.

    No Foundation

    Without a trust layer, applications can't reliably connect to the physical world.

    Real-World Consequences

    Without uncopyable digital identities, these problems persist across industries

    Counterfeit luxury goods

    A €25,000 handbag looks identical to the fake—but buyers have no way to verify authenticity before purchase.

    Resale fraud

    Collectors pay premium prices for vintage watches, only to discover forged provenance documents and fake histories.

    67%of consumers worry about fakes when buying resale

    Supply chain blind spots

    Products travel through dozens of hands—but there’s no reliable way to verify each step or detect tampering.

    Document forgery

    Diplomas, certificates, and legal documents are easily copied—making credentials impossible to trust.
