What they're building

Certibase is building certificate infrastructure for the professional training world — a platform to design templates, issue digital certificates to groups, manage student data, and verify credentials in real time. Instead of static PDFs, each certificate carries a live status checkable via a unique URL or QR code, with a student-facing 'CertiWallet' to store them all.

Why now

As compliance and recertification requirements pile up across regulated professions, the PDF-as-truth model breaks down — anyone can fake or forge a document, and no one can tell if it's still valid. Live, verifiable credentials with automated expiry follow-ups turn certificates from a filing problem into a lifecycle.

The backstory

The Hague-based company was founded in 2026 by Yassine Mehdi, positioning transparency and integrity as the core of how certificates get issued and checked. The company says it already serves over 100 training providers and manages more than 10,000 certificates.

Why this team

With more than 100 training providers and 10,000+ certificates already on the platform, the founding team has shipped real infrastructure and won early trust in a market that runs on reliability. That traction, not a pitch deck, is the signal here.
