# About ivault

## There are countless companies that talk about cutting overconsumption. We’re one of the few actually doing something about it.

#### ivault puts a planet-friendly lifestyle in the palm of your hand

ivault is a sharing app that registers and verifies items on the blockchain using our patented technology. This means anyone with a smartphone can rent, lend or sell their stuff – securely and with zero risk to privacy.

The potential is enormous. With ivault, borrowing a neighbor’s ebike will be easier, cheaper and faster than buying one new. And the feel-goods are free and endless – from meeting cool new people to just helping each other out (not to mention taking control of your carbon destiny.)
