Sites and communities that let members prove they are real, established people — without handing over a name, an email, or a phone. And every way your site can join them.
A “Works with Mask.ID” site asks a member to verify, and the member decides what to share — a Trust Index tier, a reputation summary, nothing more. The site learns a pairwise ID that is useless anywhere else. If that site is ever breached, nobody can be un-masked from it.
verified host: localhost · listed 2026-08 · source
The single-file example site from the API page: a sign-up form that asks the member to verify, then shows the attested Trust Index tier on their account.
Via Hosted verification + webhook
Not a partner — it is the runnable example you can start from. Listed so the shape of an entry is visible before the first real one.
Founding sites get the Growth tier free for their first year and a permanent listing here, with the integration they built and the scopes they ask for — so the next site can see exactly what worked.
Founding-site terms →What every listing shows: the verified host the attestation is delivered to (the one fact about a site the platform can vouch for), the integration it uses, the scopes it asks members for, and what it does with them. What no listing ever shows: how many members verified there, or who they are.
Everything below runs on one live API. Pick the shape that fits your site — a bot for a Discord, a plugin for a forum, a label for a feed, or the API itself.
Send a member to Mask.ID's consent page; get a signed attestation on your webhook. The base every other integration is built on.
Effort: An afternoon, any backend
Read the API →A Mask.ID chip for any page — no backend. Listing chips exist today; a general-purpose embed is next.
Effort: Paste one line of HTML
Read the API →A slash command — /maskid username — that posts a member’s Mask.ID profile card in your server. Copy-paste code and setup steps on the Discord Bot page. Roles by Trust Index tier come next.
Effort: Node 18+, one token, ten minutes
Set up the bot →Send /maskid @username in a group and the bot replies with the member’s Mask.ID profile card. Plain Node against the Bot API — no framework, no webhook.
Effort: Node 18+, one token, zero dependencies
Set up the bot →For members who opt in, Mask.ID’s key publishes their Trust Index tier (never the number) as a NIP-85 kind-30382 event plus NIP-58 badges. Every Nostr client, relay and bot can read and verify it — zero integration.
Effort: Nothing — read it from any relay
Read the schema →Admits and removes members of any NIP-29 group (Armada, 0xchat, chachi, your own relay) by their Mask.ID tier, read from the signed assertions on public relays. Stateless, copy-paste code.
Effort: Node 22+, one key, ten minutes
Set up the bot →Stamps “Established · Tier” on posts from verified members. Needs no cooperation from Bluesky; every user can subscribe.
Effort: Subscribe to the labeler
Coming — ask to be firstMembers link their Mask.ID from their forum profile; the forum gets a badge, a shield beside their name on posts, and a starting trust level by tier. Open source (MIT).
Effort: One git URL in app.yml, then rebuild
Set up the plugin →Building against the API? Say so — use the contact form with the Partnership topic, or the developer’s Vector below. Early integrators get the founding-site terms.
