Company profile

researched Aug 2026

TruScholar operates a blockchain-based digital credential platform used by educational institutions and corporate bodies to issue and verify academic and professional records. The credential types it supports include certificates, badges, marksheets, diplomas and degrees, which are issued as tamper-proof records that recipients can verify and share, for example on professional networking profiles such as LinkedIn.

The platform is positioned around Indian higher-education compliance requirements: it markets itself as compliant with NAD (National Academic Depository) and ABC (Academic Bank of Credits) standards under the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020, and presents verified credentialing as a way for institutions to improve NAAC ratings and reduce administrative overhead in certificate management. Integration options advertised include an API and Zapier.
