Certified Problem Solver

Snickerdoodle Labs is a legitimate venture-backed entity (raised $2.3M Seed in 2021) focusing on privacy-preserving data infrastructure using zkSNARKs. While the technical value proposition is high, the submission contains critically exaggerated claims regarding traction ('most people have used my product') and reach ('everyone'), which contradict public data showing a niche B2B2C focus. The project appears active as of 2024 (tech partnerships), but lacks the mass adoption claimed.

Project Details

Description
At Snickerdoodle Labs, we are evolving NFT tech into a massively scalable and interoperable framework for safe, open, and protective use of personal data. We are building a first-of-its-kind infrastructure that will allow people to own and monetize their data in a secure way, no matter where it lives, how it travels, or what it’s used for. Through a tokenized architecture we are enabling self-sovereign identity, giving individuals control over their identity in dynamic environments while safeguarding privacy. And in doing so, Snickerdoodle is reimagining experiences and inspiring connections between people, brands, and ideas.
