Notebook Labs

Notebook Labs, originally known as ‘Notebook’, is a company located in Stanford, CA, USA, operating within the B2B sector, specifically focusing on Web3 identity solutions. The company, which is part of the Y-Combinator S22 batch, employs a team of three and serves regions across the United States and Canada. Notebook Labs addresses the Web3 identity challenge by employing Zero-Knowledge cryptography to enable anonymous proof-of-humanity and credential aggregation. This technology is pivotal in increasing the safety of decentralized finance (DeFi), governance, and airdrops, while also allowing for Sybil-resistant airdrop mechanisms for creators and communities. Additionally, it aids decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs) in verifying the humanity and credentials of participants and supports lending protocols in developing credit scoring systems that require lower collateral. The company’s innovative approach in utilizing advanced cryptography aims to democratize financial infrastructure, backed by notable investors such as Y Combinator, Bain Capital Crypto, and Soma Capital.
