Your work is your proof

Work that is real deserves proof that counts.

Pramaan (प्रमाण, "proof") turns the invisible work of India's informal workers, women collectives and farmers into portable, verifiable records — and builds credit, cooperation and a safety net on top of them.

14 patent-pending inventions
3 communities: Shramik · Naari · Karshak
Built on programmable e₹ rails
Governed by Prahari.ai

The problem

Most of India works without a paper trail.

Daily-wage workers, domestic help, gig riders, women's self-help groups and smallholder farmers carry the economy — yet the financial system cannot see them. No payslip means no credit. No credit means informal lenders. No collective voice means no bargaining power.

Invisible identity

Skills, work history and reputation are scattered across employers, platforms and villages — and lost every time a worker moves.

Unscorable credit

Traditional scoring needs formal income. Real repayment behaviour, crop health and community trust go uncounted.

No collective leverage

Individually, a buyer or seller has no bargaining power — and joining a group often means exposing personal details.

No safety net that reaches in time

When a crop fails or work dries up, relief arrives late, partially, or not at all.

Who Pramaan serves

Three communities, one connected platform.

Each community enters Pramaan through a different door, but every door opens onto the same shared rails of identity, credit, cooperation and programmable money.

श्रमिक

Shramik

Informal & gig workers

A portable proof of who you are and what you've done — that travels from job to job and turns into credit.

नारी

Naari

Women & women's collectives

Collective buying, selling and recognition — with bargaining power that doesn't demand giving up privacy.

कर्षक

Karshak

Farmers & smallholders

Credit assessed from the field itself, and a safety net that pays out automatically when it's needed.

The patent-pending portfolio

Fourteen ideas that work as one system.

No single invention solves inclusion. Pramaan's ideas are designed to feed each other: identity enables credit, credit enables cooperation, cooperation runs on programmable money, and every step is verified and reviewable. Tap any idea to see what it connects to.

How it fits together

A worker-facing front, a constitutional engine behind it.

Pramaan is what workers, collectives and farmers see. Prahari.ai is the governance engine underneath that makes every rule, decision and transaction verifiable.

Communities

Shramik, Naari and Karshak — through simple, assisted, mobile-first experiences.

Identity & credit

Portable credentials, cross-sectoral scoring and satellite-verified farm credit.

Collective action

Anonymous cooperative formation, identity-blind collective purchasing, demand aggregation and Dharmic Tokens.

Programmable money

Programmable e₹ rails, automated safety nets and atomic, progressive tax at source.

Trust & accountability

Game-theoretic transaction checks, human review of AI decisions and privacy-preserving impact analytics.

The founder

Jaganmohan V.S. Kataru

An independent researcher and builder based in Bengaluru, Jagan brings together three decades of technology and a lifelong view of how cooperatives actually work — and fail — on the ground.

Pramaan is the result: a system designed for the people the financial system was never built to see.
