## Entity Definitions

### KYP (Know Your Product)
KYP is the KYC standard for physical assets. It delivers five institutional-grade decisions about any high-value item: Is it authentic? What is its value? What is its condition? Does it need repairs? Who owns it? KYP enables banks, insurers, and marketplaces to trust physical assets at scale.

### Multi-Agent AI System
Vaultik's authentication infrastructure uses 17 specialized AI agents across 4 layers (Data Ingestion, Analysis, Cross-Validation, Decision Synthesis). Unlike single-model AI, multi-agent architecture eliminates hallucinations by constraining each agent to its domain expertise with evidence-backed conclusions.

### Digital ID
A Digital ID is a cryptographic identity for physical assets. It captures authentication data, condition assessment, provenance history, and ownership verification in a single, immutable on-chain record. Digital IDs enable instant verification, ownership transfer tracking, and integration with insurance and lending systems.
