Identity-Verified Networks for Professionals Who Actually Exist

VLM Professionals is building a secure, identity-anchored platform for people who do real work in the real world – not bots, not influencers, not anonymous accounts.

  • Verified identity at account level.
  • We will use iProov as our Identity proof partner, you can find out more here.
  • Hardware-key and biometric-backed security
  • No advertising, no data resale
  • Designed for professionals, researchers and regulated industries

Launch programme in preparation. Initial pilots will be invite-only and strictly verified.

The Problem: Professional Networks Have Turned into Noise

Conventional platforms were designed to sell attention, not protect professional reputations.
They are full of fake profiles, engagement farming and weak identity checks. They generate noise,
but do very little to guarantee who you are dealing with.

VLM Professionals starts from the opposite premise: identity first, everything else second.

The VLM Professionals Approach

Identity, Proven

Every account is tied to a real individual or organisation. Verification is built into the foundation,
not bolted on later as an optional extra.

Security by Design

Multi-factor authentication, hardware keys and biometric verification as standard – not premium features.
Logins are designed to be resistant to phishing and credential stuffing.

Integrity over Influence

No follower counts, no vanity metrics. Reputation is based on verified credentials, contributions and peer trust –
not on how loud you shout.

An Ecosystem, Not a Single App

Integrated with the wider Teravoxus and VML platforms for secure messaging, research publishing and specialist communities.

How VLM Professionals Will Work

1. Application

You apply using your real identity and professional details, with clear declarations about how and where you work.

2. Verification

Your identity is verified using document checks, institutional validation and strong authentication checks.

3. Activation

Your account is enabled with hardware-key and biometric protection, ready for secure access from authorised devices.

4. Connection

You connect with real professionals, organisations and projects in a network that actually cares who is on the other side.

Built for People with Serious Responsibilities

Individual Professionals

Engineers, clinicians, researchers, consultants, lawyers, educators and senior operators who
need a network they can genuinely trust.

Organisations & Teams

Companies, institutions and project teams who require secure, auditable communications and verified participants.

Regulated Sectors

Finance, healthcare, energy, critical infrastructure and safety-critical industries where identity and accountability are non-negotiable.

Academia & Research

Research groups, journals and scientists who need a stable identity backbone for publishing, collaboration and peer review.

Security as a Baseline, Not a Bolt-On

VLM Professionals is being engineered for high-assurance environments from day one.

  • Hardware security keys for strong, phishing-resistant login.
  • Biometric verification to bind accounts to real people.
  • Strict session management and device control.
  • No third-party ad networks, tracking pixels or behavioural advertising.

Details will be published nearer the time of full launch, but for privacy and security reasons, only minimal information will ever be made public to avoid the risk of security being compromised.
