Yanez has finally pulled back the curtain on some of the companies using or working with its Proof of Humanhood and Proof of Uniqueness technology.
The Bittensor Subnet 54 team had previously kept most of its commercial relationships private, citing the confidentiality requirements that typically come with security infrastructure and enterprise customers.
That changed this week when Yanez added a selection of its customers and partners to its website.
The list includes some notable names across financial data, compliance, identity, payments and AI infrastructure: Dow Jones, Moody’s, LexisNexis, Checkout.com, Sigma360, Castellum.AI, sanctions.io, OpenSanctions, AWARE, Nomino Data, dFusion AI and Syklo.
Yanez founder Jose Caldera announced the disclosure in a brief business and product update, saying the team had spent considerable time working through the hurdles required to make the relationships public.
“In the past, you guys have asked me and have asked us, can you tell us more about your clients, about your partners and so on?”
Caldera said the team had now been able to clear some of those hurdles and put “some of them” on the Yanez website.
A Long-Requested Look Behind the Curtain
The disclosure is significant because Yanez has been building a product aimed squarely at a problem that becomes more important as AI agents proliferate: determining whether the entity interacting with a system is a real human, and whether that human is unique.
That positioning has put Yanez in an unusual part of the Bittensor ecosystem.
Rather than building another general-purpose AI model, Subnet 54 is attempting to build infrastructure for trust, identity and authorization in increasingly automated digital systems.
Yanez’s current product is a privacy-preserving system for proving humanhood and uniqueness without putting biometric data into a centralized database.
The Names Are Particularly Interesting
The companies now displayed on Yanez’s website span several areas of the digital trust stack.
Dow Jones, Moody’s and LexisNexis are among the most recognizable names on the list, with deep positions in financial information, risk, compliance and business intelligence.
Also appearing are Checkout.com, a major payments infrastructure company, alongside Sigma360, Castellum.AI, sanctions.io and OpenSanctions, which operate around risk, compliance and sanctions intelligence.
The list also includes AWARE, Nomino Data, dFusion AI and Syklo, connecting Yanez’s technology to newer identity, AI and Web3-oriented applications.
Yanez has already publicly announced its relationship with Syklo and, more recently, dFusion AI. dFusion uses Yanez’s Proof of Humanhood and Uniqueness to ensure its contributor network maps back to real, unique individuals. Yanez says dFusion has more than 750,000 contributors.
Syklo, meanwhile, has been using Yanez’s technology around account security and verification, with Yanez describing its system as providing biometric 2FA and ensuring that market makers are verified as unique humans.
From Proof of Humanhood to Proof of Uniqueness
The commercial disclosure comes alongside another important milestone for Yanez: the initial rollout of its Proof of Humanhood and Proof of Uniqueness product.
The technology is now running across Android and iOS devices, with hundreds of users having already gone through the application.
Caldera emphasized that the underlying models, including biometrics, deepfake detection, liveness, presence and injection-attack detection, are executing directly on users’ devices across a wide range of hardware.
The product is designed so that biometric data does not leave the user’s device, while the network produces cryptographically verifiable proofs without needing any central authority to hold the underlying information.
“That gives us proof that we can continue building private super serving technology that actually executes within the device,” Caldera said.
The Bigger Piece Comes at Exploit
Caldera also teased the next part of Yanez’s Proof of Humanhood and Uniqueness ecosystem, which the team plans to unveil at Exploit Summit.
With Yanez now revealing some of the organizations already working with its technology, there is plenty to watch for as the project moves into its next phase.
For the bigger reveal, all eyes are on Exploit.
