How verification works

What our team checks before a professional appears.

A professional cannot show up in search, in Canvas or in a conversation until Tatva has checked them.

Verification in the professional’s onboarding: a note that documents are stored privately, then the government photo ID upload.
A professional’s profile in the app: name, studio, a Verified by Tatva line with the month it was checked, their areas and a Message button.

What it does

  • Identity

    A government photo ID. An Aadhaar card must be a masked copy.

  • Business

    A document that shows the business is real.

  • References

    Two people the professional has worked with.

  • Their work

    Photos from at least one real project. Photos are checked before they show in Canvas.

Verification, step by step

  1. Step 1

    Documents, kept private

    Professionals upload their documents in the app. Only Tatva’s verification team can open them, every view is recorded, and they are never shown on a profile.

  2. Step 2

    Their work, checked

    A professional adds photos from a real project and confirms they have the right to publish them. Photos are checked before they appear.

    Adding work in the app: a project name and photos from the project, with one marked as the cover.
  3. Step 3

    A badge with a date

    The profile says what was checked and the month it was checked.

Questions

What does verification not mean?
It means the person is who they say they are, the business is real and the work is theirs. It does not mean Tatva has inspected every job or guarantees the work.
What happens if something goes wrong?
Report the profile, the photo or the message in the app. You can also block the person. Our team reviews every report.
Can a badge be taken away?
Yes. If a professional no longer meets the checks, the badge comes off and the profile stops showing.

Tatva is coming to iPhone and Android.
