Governments today need secure, transparent, and cost-effective digital identity solutions that meet new regulatory frameworks, like eIDAS 2.0 and the Swiss E-ID law. With the open source release of Procivis One, we’re offering a solution that gives implementers full control over their digital identity infrastructure, without the hidden risks often associated with open source models that start free but later impose costs. Many providers offer open source only as a starting point, locking customers into costly paid versions for essential features. Procivis One Open Source is different: it delivers a comprehensive set of tools for full regulatory compliance—secure, scalable, and adaptable—enabling governments to implement decentralized identity solutions without vendor lock-in or surprise costs. Below, we break down the key components of Procivis One and explain how they can be used to build compliant and future-proof decentralized digital identity services.
Procivis One: Decentralized Digital Identity Built For Compliance And Flexibility At Scale
At the heart of our open source release is flexibility and scalability. Decentralized digital identity credential solutions in today's market environment need to adapt to a wide range of standards, formats, trust infrastructures and use-case specific environments. The Procivis One solution is built to support this diverse set of requirements easily to enable organizations and developers to integrate decentralized identity and credentials with ease.
Key Components of the Open Source License Model
Our Open Source license model includes the Procivis One Core, its APIs, the mobile SDK, and the Procivis One Wallet App, all available under the Apache 2.0 License now. This allows our customers to access the value of our production grade digital identity and verifiable credential solution without the risks of vendor lock-in or expensive license costs. Each of them represents a vital component for future-proof digital identity and credential implementations, designed to work together seamlessly while allowing independent integration and customization.
Procivis One Core
The backbone of the solution, Procivis One Core, provides all capabilities for managing decentralized identity and verifiable credentials. It implements many different identity models, standards and formats, offering the flexibility that organizations need to meet both local and global regulatory requirements. The Core handles the complex processes for issuing, holding, and verifying digital credentials in a secure, scalable environment.

Procivis One Wallet
The Procivis One Wallet is the user-facing component of the solution, enabling individuals to manage their digital identity and verifiable credentials easily. Whether governments are looking to issue and request official credentials (such as PID, EID or QEAA) or businesses seeking to engage with users via their wallets, the Procivis One Wallet provides a seamless interface to other interoperable digital identity and credential components in the market.

Procivis One Mobile SDK
For those who need more customization and intend to build their own Wallet or mobile App on top of Procivis One Core’s capabilities, the Procivis One Mobile SDK allows developers to build tailored mobile solutions. Whether it’s integrating wallet functionality into an existing app (such as an existing Government ID App) or creating new mobile experiences from scratch, our SDK provides the tools needed to build secure, scalable identity solutions on both iOS and Android platforms.

Procivis One APIs
The Procivis One APIs provide a comprehensive way for developers to interact with the Core. Whether it's issuing verifiable credentials or managing identity verification workflows, our REST APIs offer all the flexibility needed for integration with existing government platforms and enterprise systems.

Combined, these components create a fully customizable, end-to-end solution that adapts to different identity use cases, from government services to enterprise environments.
Clear Guidance For Seamless Implementation: Enhanced Documentation For Developers
One of the key pillars of a successful open source project is clear and thorough documentation. We’ve made significant investments into updating and optimizing our documentation to ensure that developers can easily start with Procivis One. Whether you are integrating the Core, building a custom wallet with the Mobile SDK, or developing new use cases with our APIs, our documentation provides detailed guidance and examples.
Two Licensing Models: Open Source Freedom Or Worry Free Enterprise Package
We are fully committed to the open source license model, and at the same time we recognize that some customers need a more specialized, frequently updated version of Procivis One. For this reason, we offer a second licensing model.
Organizations seeking more advanced features, quicker updates, and ongoing support can opt for the Enterprise License of Procivis One. This license model includes premium features that are not part of the open source release, more frequent updates, and access to additional services. Additionally, customers who want the latest innovations without moving to the Enterprise license model can purchase a support and maintenance package within the open source license model, ensuring they have access to exactly the updates and assistance that fit their needs.
Check out our comparison table to find out which license model is the right one for you.
Why Choose the Enterprise License Model Instead?
- Frequent Updates: Get access to the latest features and security patches as soon as they are available.
- Advanced Features: Benefit from additional functionality that’s not included in the open source version.
- Premium Support: Receive more frequent service updates, support, and personalized assistance.
For organizations looking for maximum flexibility, the two licensing models offer the best of both worlds—an open source core to innovate and build upon, alongside a robust enterprise license for those who need it.
