C14 is a financial technology company that provides a seamless fiat-to-crypto on-ramp solution for developers building on the Hedera blockchain network. Its core product is an easily embeddable widget that decentralized applications (dApps), wallets, and marketplaces can integrate directly into their platforms.
With C14's widget, users can purchase digital assets directly within the dApp they are using, employing familiar payment methods like credit or debit cards. The platform handles the entire transaction flow, including regulatory compliance aspects like Know Your Customer (KYC) checks, and delivers the purchased assets directly to the user's connected wallet. This creates a simple, "one-click" experience that significantly lowers the barrier to entry for mainstream adoption.

Taskbar is a decentralized freelance marketplace and gig-economy platform built on the Hedera blockchain network. It connects clients with freelancers for on-demand tasks and services in a more efficient, transparent, and equitable Web3 environment. It acts as an alternative to traditional freelance websites by addressing issues such as high commission fees and slow payment settlements.
Taskbar facilitates payments in HBAR, USDC, and other Hedera-based tokens, enabling near-instant settlement directly to a freelancer's wallet. A key feature is its on-chain escrow system, where funds for a job are locked in a smart contract and released automatically upon successful completion of the task, ensuring security for both parties. It also boasts a gamified reputation system implemented to build trust and incentivize positive user behavior.
To enhance transparency and trust, Taskbar utilizes the Hedera Consensus Service (HCS) to create an immutable and auditable log of all critical platform activities, including task creation, proposals, and reviews. This forms the basis of a verifiable on-chain reputation system for freelancers.

Capture, by Numbers Protocol, is a Web3 camera application designed to combat digital fraud and establish verifiable provenance for photos and videos. It functions as the primary creation tool for the Numbers Protocol network, allowing users to generate digital media that is authentic, traceable, and secure from the moment of creation. The app is targeted at content creators, photographers, journalists, and anyone concerned with the integrity and ownership of their digital work in an age of AI-driven misinformation.
When a user takes a photo or records a video with the Capture App, it automatically embeds the content with rich, tamper-proof metadata. This includes critical information such as the creator's identity, a secure timestamp, and geolocation data. This entire package is then registered on a blockchain, creating an immutable "birth certificate" for the asset. This process adheres to the C2PA (Coalition for Content Provenance and Authenticity) standard, ensuring a high degree of trust.
This "Capture-secured" content provides a clear and verifiable history that travels with the asset, allowing anyone to confirm its origin and view any subsequent edits. Furthermore, the app provides a seamless, one-click process for users to mint their verified content as non-fungible tokens (NFTs) on various blockchains.
