For researchers, labs, and journals
Claim your Researcher ID
Four capabilities, one ID. NobleID unifies the Work, Person, Proof, and Support into a single, citable link that works alongside your ORCID and DOIs.
Cite it. Verify it. Support it.
Free forever · No credit card required · Unlimited minting
Used by researchers at leading institutions · Built for open science · Works with ORCID, DOI, Zenodo, arXiv, GitHub

One ID, four capabilities
NobleID brings your research objects, identity, provenance, and support flows into one durable, human-readable identifier.
The Work
Persistent links for papers, datasets, software, and multimedia that never rot. Every version of a work stays citable forever, with clear version labels and history.
The Person
Your researcher identity in one place: ORCID, affiliations, profiles, and attestations. NobleID Person pages for authors, labs, and groups make it clear who is behind each work.
The Proof
Cryptographic Knowledge-Proof Receipts for each version: content hashes, timestamps, and storage pointers, plus an independently verifiable mirror so provenance can be checked by anyone.
Support
Optional, privacy-preserving support and licensing flows with automatic split distributions for co-authors, labs, and collaborators — without forcing readers through complex crypto flows.
Why researchers are claiming their NobleID
Built to solve the specific pain points of modern academic publishing and sharing.
Never lose a citation again
Root links always resolve to the latest version, while older versions stay visible and citable. No more dead links in PDFs, slides, or grant applications.
Clear version history
v1, v2, v3… are transparently tracked. Each version has its own receipt and timestamp, so readers can see exactly what changed and when.
Verifiable & trustworthy
Every key action can emit a cryptographic receipt. Provenance isn't a black box — it's inspectable, reproducible, and independently verifiable.
Resilient storage by default
Storage metadata is mirrored on BNB Greenfield, with optional public-chain anchoring for long-term auditability. Links stay stable even if individual platforms change.
Privacy-safe support
Readers can support authors, teams, or labs without exposing their personal payment details. Splits can be set up once and reused across works.
Professional & shareable
Cleaner than most personal academic websites and designed for mobile, talks, and CVs. One link to rule your research presence.
Under the hood
Infrastructure for knowledge. Simple on the surface, rigorous underneath, and ready for integrators.
Fast and reliable
- <200 ms global resolve target for resolver pages
