We believe users should be able to control their identity and data across all digital interactions.

Founders Wayne Chang and Gregory Rocco met while working at ConsenSys in Brooklyn, New York. They realized that the best way to ensure a user-centric future was to build the core infrastructure that lets users control their data across the web. Enter Spruce in early 2020. As implementers and architects of emerging global identity standards such as W3C Verifiable Credentials, Sign-In with Ethereum, and more, we recognize the importance of aligning the ecosystem and providing core open-source building blocks to make this all possible.

We Believe in

  • Enabling a world where users can control their data across the web.

  • Giving people security and privacy through private-by-default architectures.

  • Supporting builders with open-source software for user-controlled interactions.

Our Investors

We're proud to be backed by a world-class team of investors, including top founders, leaders, and institutions in the industry.

Grow With Us

We're a team of user control maximalists, and while we’re not zealots of any particular technology, we want to ensure that technology is never the limiting factor for a user-controlled future. We believe that the world is evolving toward one based on cryptography, networks, and digital economies that must all put user at the center.
