Venmo co-founder and Solo adviser Iqram Magdon-Ismail has brought Solo’s face-based verification system to JellyJelly, letting users prove they are human and unique without submitting government identification or completing a CAPTCHA.

Magdon-Ismail founded JellyJelly, a Solana-based short-video social app. Users scan their faces with a phone camera. The scan is processed on the device using fully homomorphic encryption (FHE) before comparison, and the system does not store the original face image.

Solo has received investment from Draper Associates and was selected for the fifth Solana Incubator cohort. The company plans to develop authorization and payment features for AI agents.
