About

EU-native identity, built honestly.

Thoryn is an EU-incorporated identity platform building programmable trust for European enterprises. Small team, sharp focus, no marketing fluff. This page is a stub — the real About page lands once there's something to say beyond what the product pages already cover.

What we do

One sentence.

We make identity programmable: every trust decision in your product — who, what, who vouches — as code you can read, review, and version. Hosted in Germany, signed by Vault, built for EU data residency and NIS2 / DORA evidence.

What we believe

Three things that drive every decision.

EU-only is structural

Not a deployment toggle. Dutch incorporation, Hetzner Germany, zero CLOUD Act exposure — written into the platform, not a policy doc.

Honest comparisons

Every alternatives page calls out where the competitor is genuinely stronger. If you can't tell when not to pick us, you can't trust when we say to.

Code over claims

Compliance gets diagrams. Architecture gets diagrams. Security claims tie back to specific RFCs and protocol mechanisms — not to policy paragraphs.

Where we are

The boring details.

Incorporated: Netherlands (Dutch B.V.) — chosen for EU jurisdiction, GDPR primacy, and CLOUD Act distance.
Hosted: Hetzner Germany (Falkenstein and Nürnberg). All compute, storage, and signing keys live there.
Team: Small. Engineering-led. We will list named team members here when there are enough faces to list — until then, the work speaks for itself via the GitHub history.
Funding posture: Building with discipline. We are not in a hurry to outrun the EU regulatory timeline; the regulation is the floor, the customer is the ceiling.
