about

A trust layer for a society that includes machines.

RIN Network is a public-interest protocol. It exists so that when a robot operates in a shared human environment, everyone — owners, facilities, insurers, regulators, and other robots — can answer: who is this, who is responsible, and what may it do here?

Identity

Every robot has a verifiable Robot Identification Number.

Responsibility

Every robot has a chain of responsible people and organizations.

Authority

What a robot may do is explicit and machine-checkable.

Coordination

Discovery, trust, tasks and transactions in one protocol.

Accountability

Signed evidence and an append-only audit trail.

Openness

The protocol is a draft standard, not a walled garden.
