Supply Chain Verification

Modern supply chains are complex and opaque. Consumers demand proof of ethical sourcing, but manufacturers are often hesitant to reveal their upstream suppliers to protect their competitive advantage. VeilCore OS enables "Selective Disclosure" to solve this paradox.

The Scenario: Ethical Luxury Goods

A luxury brand wants to prove that their leather goods are sourced from farms that meet strict ethical standards. However, they do not want to publish the exact names and locations of these farms, as competitors might try to cut them out of the deal.

The VeilCore Solution

An autonomous Supply Chain Agent tracks the product lifecycle.

1. Data Aggregation: The agent collects raw data from suppliers (invoices, certificates, GPS logs).

2. ZK Verification: The agent runs a verification circuit against this data. The circuit checks specific constraints (e.g., "Region == Approved_Zone" or "Labor_Score > 90").

3. Selective Disclosure: The agent publishes a proof that the product satisfies all ethical criteria.

Impact

The consumer scans a QR code and sees a cryptographic "Green Checkmark" verified by the VeilCore network. They know the product is ethical because the math proves it. However, the specific list of suppliers remains completely hidden. This allows for trust without transparency of trade secrets.
