I Am Human

The recognition engine

It looks at the process, not your papers.

When you join, and now and then after that, the recognition engine checks that a person is at the controls. It looks at how things happen, not at who you are.

How it works

  1. A few short interactionsOn the website or in the app, you complete a few short rounds by touch, mouse or stylus.
  2. The engine looks at the processIt looks at how each round unfolds, not at your face, your voice or your ID documents.
  3. Your Human IDIf it passes, a Human ID is issued and kept on your device. Anyone can check it online.
  4. Light re-checksIn the community it looks at when you post, respond and message, and at a few writing statistics. Now and then it may ask for a short re-check on your phone.

What it looks at

  • How the interactions unfold during a check
  • The times of your posts, responses and messages
  • A few writing statistics: edits, pauses, pasting, time taken

What it never looks at

  • What you write, including images, voice and video
  • Your contacts, location, camera or microphone
  • Which keys you press, or their order
  • Device fingerprints or ID documents

What it cannot do

It gives probabilistic signals. It cannot prove that someone is a person or detect AI with certainty, so you can always re-check yourself or appeal.
