The openingWhy this idea is overlooked

The fraudulent-or-expired-credential trust problem that QR verification solves for CPR cards exists identically across every regulated credential, from CNA licensure to acupuncture and continuing-education units, yet verification tools are usually built one silo at a time. A single platform that verifies many credential types for an employer is far more valuable than any single-credential tool. It is overlooked because builders start narrow and rarely zoom out to the cross-industry pattern.
