p-Chip micro-transponders are small, light-activated and uniquely traceable.

Shockingly durable and cost-effective, p-Chip crypto anchors can be adhered to products, components, ingredients—virtually any physical good. A variation of semiconductor technology then enables the tracking and authentication of these goods at every stage in the supply chain.

The opportunity is beyond anything available on the market today:

  • Secure goods
  • Prevent counterfeiting
  • Control quality
  • Enhance customer safety
  • Validate provenance
  • Authenticate parts
  • Protect brand integrity
  • Reduce risk & financial losses
  • The list goes on…

p-Chip in Action

Functioning like a digital twin for physical items, p-Chip tracers are actively deployed in multiple highly regulated, industrial supply chains.

This breakthrough is helping major organizations serialize, trace and authenticate a wide variety of goods—from heavily stressed engine components to living fish.

Companies Spend

$105 billion

Amount companies spend on additive packaging protection technologies every year


Tiny, inexpensive and tough as nails, p-Chip crypto anchors enable the tracking of materials at any point in the journey to the customer—both before and after purchase. Organizations use p-Chip technology to:

Chainlink

Record chain-of-custody

  • Pinpoint last/current location
  • Record time of transfers
  • Confirm current owners
Shield

Validate authenticity

  • Prevent counterfeiting
  • Validate returns & warranty claims
  • Identify gray-market or end-of-life products
Lock

Serialize & secure the supply chain

  • Attach a unique ID to each p-Chip micro-transponder
  • Leverage Physical Unclonable Function (PUF)
  • Monitor via inexpensive indexing platform

Comparing p-Chip

Although the implementation of p-Chip crypto anchors may overlap with that of RFID tags, bar or QR codes, and even the physical embossing of parts, the comparison stops there.

p-Chip trackers are less expensive, more secure, smaller, and more capable than any other tag.

RFID

RFID, although
widely used…

  • Costs more
  • Is much larger
  • Poses attachment challenges
  • Is difficult to read near metal
  • Is more fragile
  • Only operates in limited temperature ranges
bar code scanner

BAR CODES,
ALTHOUGH CHEAP…

  • Offer minimal security
  • Are easy to duplicate
  • Post attachment challenges
  • Are large & fragile
  • Have a limited environmental operating range
