    Today's simple enterprise identities (usernames+passwords) have historically been "owned" by the enterprise. Woven shifts the ownership of the employee identity from the enterprise to the employee, providing a durable identity that the employee uses from one employer to the next, giving the employee control of their own personal information, and giving the enterprise both a guarantee of employee identity and control over what the employee can and can't do within the business. From identity verification to application login to electronic document signatures, Woven guarantees identity.

Our Kaishi mobile app is the go-to destination for rich nutrition, exercise and fetal development information that also enables social sharing of the child’s heartbeat. Kaishi launched in China (the world's largest maternity / baby market) in 2016, and is growing quickly with very high customer feedback. Winner of multiple awards globally including the highly acclaimed Spark Product Design Award, the Best High Tech Company in China award from Babytree, the Rising Star Award from Yuer, and is a finalist for the 2017 CES BabyTech Product of the Year award.
