Identity is the next leap forward for modern communications when applied to build tools for users to control their access, availability, and image. Identity is the root factor to enable the “peoples’ directory,” a user-generated, technically authenticated service where Equals exchange communication across open channels (talk, text, post, sharing) and toggle multiple devices while building a new layer of privacy, security, and accessibility.

Allowing digitally savvy consumers around the globe to be telecom's tool agnostic, Equals intuitively inserts a fine grained control layer to manage communications and set rules on a per relationship basis. With this new concept, people will reap the benefits of telephony on the desktop or on mobile by simply defining their temporal framework. The root issue of identity allows Equals to consolidate their multiple profiles to build access permissions and sharing controls, yet present a fully customizable image to different unique audiences.

The Equals project comes from a team who has been addressing global identity issues as a lead contributor to the i-names consortium.
