# Profile.io Architecture

Profile.io connects web2 scalability and web3 decentralisation and privacy preserving technologies.  Inititial web3 networks that we are building on are the Polygon PoS network and Solana networks. Both provide vibrant developer communities and Polygon provides a suite of tools well placed for shipping an identity-focused application, while Solana offers fast NFT infrastructure.

[Polygon ID](https://polygon.technology/polygon-id) provides a toolkit for building SSI solutions that are natively integrated into the Polygon PoS network. This includes an SDK for creating featureful "identity wallets", and advanced technologies such as zero-knowledge proofs for data privacy and security.

As an open platform, the platform will support other DID methods, coming from other chains and technical providers and for example TDD and Cheqd DID and VC integrations are in development.
