About Planetway

Planetway is currently developing a platform "avenue" that provides global communication services that can be used in 200 countries around the world and specializes in creating new businesses in various fields (IoT / AI, etc.). Establishing the development base in Estonia, we are developing “avenue-cross” specializing in Cross-Industry Data-Access, which is the core technology of “avenue”.

In addition, data should belong to individuals, not organizations, and it is called “Individual Data Driven Social Innovation” as the arrival of the world where individuals can safely and freely publish data on their own will. Our vision is to create a world where data can be used in a way that is favorable to ourselves and society by making information available to third parties on a personal permission basis.

About PlanetCross

PlanetCross is an industry-independent, secure information collaboration platform that Planetway customizes and provides for the first time in the world an information collaboration platform in Estonia, an ICT advanced country. Data linkage with other companies can be realized without making major changes to each company's existing systems and databases, so it is possible to expand the application area step by step while utilizing existing systems and databases. Although it supports various relational database linkages at the initial stage, it is particularly effective in highly confidential areas such as personal information and privacy information.

With the basic technology proven in Estonia, the following three points are possible.

1. It is possible to easily permit an individual to disclose who “what” data to “who”
2. Identity verification and data integrity by electronic authentication / signature (CA) and time stamp (TSA)
3. Significant efficiency of contract execution through smart contract
