Accredible

Accredible is a digital credentialing platform for issuing, managing, and verifying digital certificates and Open Badges. The REST API lets issuers create and update credentials (certificates and badges) for recipients, organize them into Groups (courses/achievements), apply reusable visual Designs, attach Evidence Items and References, generate PDFs and blockchain-verifiable records, pull engagement analytics, manage Departments and Team Members, and generate recipient SSO links. Credentials are issued against a Group and rendered with a Design; the platform hosts a public verification page and share links for each credential.
