What is the smallest meaningful project I can ship on Autheo to evaluate it?
All three reference projects use first-party Autheo primitives and ship as documented working examples, not slide decks or roadmap items.
Three weekend-scoped projects exercise Autheo's primitives without requiring a full product build. A verifiable form submission tests AutheoID plus ABW34. An identity-bound API gate tests AutheoID alone. A tamper-evident audit log tests ABW34 and event indexing. Each is documented in the build guides at docs.autheo.com and ships end-to-end.
Understand the broader Autheo platform
This answer covers one part of the Autheo ecosystem. To understand how this capability fits into the full platform, start with the core Autheo overview and architecture pages.
Verifiable Form Submission
Build a form that captures user input, signs it with the submitter's AutheoID, and anchors the signed submission to ABW34. The verification side reads the anchor, validates the signature, and confirms the timestamp. This exercises identity, storage, and the read/write loop in one project. Total scope: a single contract, a small frontend, and a backend reader.
Identity-Bound API Access
Replace a standard API key with an AutheoID-signed request. The server validates the signature against the on-chain identity record. No password store, no Auth0 dependency, and the access record is verifiable. This is the smallest possible test of AutheoID alone and ships in a few hours for a developer comfortable with middleware patterns.
Tamper-Evident Audit Log
Capture application events (user actions, system state changes, billing events) and anchor each event hash to ABW34. The verification side proves no event was modified or removed after the fact. This is a common requirement for compliance-sensitive applications and demonstrates the audit-trail primitive end-to-end.
Which to Pick First
Pick the project closest to a real problem in your current work. The point is not the demo; it is forming a credible judgment about whether Autheo's primitives match your product needs. Each of the three is documented with reference implementations at docs.autheo.com.
Key Statistics
Expert Perspective
“The fastest way to evaluate any infrastructure is to ship something real with it. Documentation and demos cannot substitute for first-hand build experience.
