Addressable Identity · Zeredi Protocol
You are more than a single profile. Zeredi introduces Addressable Identity: a modular way to represent who you are, depending on the context.
The profile has been a useful way to be found and recognized online. As our digital lives expand, though, one fixed snapshot cannot express every part of who we are.
We move naturally between roles: colleague in a boardroom, creative partner in a study group, and family member at home. Zeredi is exploring an identity model that can make room for that nuance.
Addressable Identity shifts the focus from storing one profile to resolving the right representation for a particular interaction. A person's root identity can remain under their control while contextual representations adapt to the moment.
A hierarchy connects the enduring identity to the context and details that matter now.

The foundational identity, intended to remain under the person's control.
02
Context-specific representations that bring forward only what is relevant to an interaction.
03
Modular units of information—a preference, credential, or other detail—that an avatar can use to express the right context.
Each Avatar can have a distinct handle: an address that helps identify which context you mean. This sample view shows system and optional custom handles, plus whether each Avatar is listed or private.

Organize roles instead of maintaining one all-purpose bio. Keep personal and professional contexts distinct, and choose what to share in different digital spaces.
Structured identity data can help software resolve the specific preferences or details needed for an interaction, rather than guessing from a broad profile.
Contextual pruning is a design goal: make relevant information easier to distinguish from everything else. Direct AI-agent connections are not available today.
Identity does not have to stop at individual user accounts. The protocol is intended to provide a foundation for entities that need to be identified in a digital context:
Zeredi is beginning with the individual: building a foundation for person-led identity before exploring how the model could extend to collectives and other systems.
