What we are building

Unbuyable arbitration for any dispute, powered by Worldcoin

The existing permissionless arbitration platforms, like UMA (which handles resolution for Polymarket) and Kleros, use token-weighted voting to decide arbitration, plutocracy is suboptimal for every use case. Read this doc to see how we plan to fix that using Worldcoin to make 1 human = 1 juror.

DemoThemis

The most ambitious arbitration service ever made.

Goal: A protocol escrow and arbitration service so good that customers want every online deal to run through it, from Uber to eBay to Airbnb to AdSense. Requesting applications bring cases and their user interfaces. DemoThemis provides the ruling and, when protocol escrow is used, releases or refunds the funds by rule.

How: Robust, ungameable mechanics with proof of personhood to overcome the need for plutocracy. OmenMarketMaker supplies the first demand, data, and escrow volume.

Using Worldcoin to ensure 1 juror = 1 human: Orb verification gives each person one juror seat. An on-device face check at every draw confirms the same human is still behind the account, which makes selling accounts much harder. The entire court system runs 100% on chain.
