π‘Purpose
Our main thesis is that the purpose of life for all people revolves around freedom.
What means Prutopia?
Freedom: your purpose
What is your purpose in life? What are you looking for in the future? The answer always ends in greater power of decision/action about your life. That is freedom.
Creating a product involves creating value for people, and this means helping them achieve their purpose in life.
Prutopia is built seeking to contribute to that point: it is a native internet CV in which people shape their work identity by being empowered in the workplace, working on 3 aspects: data portability (power), data veracity, and interoperability.
Data Portability (Power)
Blockchain technology allows power to be in the hands of the individual. Each identity has an ID (address) on the network, which can be used to identify the authorship of their actions in the digital world without the need for an intermediary to guard those data. Once the person has that power, no one can take it away (not even the Prutopia team that creates the tools for this to be reality).
Data Veracity
A paper CV is the perfect example of power over data: it's in my hand, no one can take it away. But how much veracity does it have? None.
Blockchain, in turn, allows us to demonstrate the authorship of actions of an identity within it, who else is validating that information, at what time, etc. This allows the internet to be truthful.
Data portability and veracity give individuals greater degrees of freedom, as they do not depend on third parties to freely manage their work identity.
Interoperability
In the traditional world: completing the paper CV, delivering it to different businesses... updating work information, completing the CV again, delivering it again.
In the digital world: completing the CV on a job board, completing it on a service marketplace, completing it on another job board, updating work information... completing it again.
The CV continues to function as it did in the traditional era. That's why, at Prutopia, we are creating a tool suitable for the internet: a native internet curriculum vitae, online, without friction, easy to create, update, and connect.
People will gather every work history, job experience, and other relevant data across the internet (reviews on platforms, educational certificates, etc.) with demonstrable validation of this data by third parties (companies, educational institutions, etc.), and connect seamlessly across different sites with a single click, allowing information to migrate smoothly both in job updates (for example: every time they provide a new service on a freelancing platform it would update on Prutopia...) and on job-seeking platforms where their Prutopia profile is connected (...and in turn on job boards where the Prutopia profile is linked).
The New Internet CV
Taking these 3 points into account, individuals can shape identities free from determination (and not in traditional concepts, as explained in the identity article) that generate trust in their counterpart, building a reputational capital for their connection throughout the internet.
Those concepts are at the essence of Prutopia, even in its name: "Pr" for Prometheus, the titan who according to Greek mythology, stole fire from the gods to give it to the people, demonstrating a struggle against the status quo, and "utopia" because that seems in our daily reality a utopian concept.
Prutopia is born with that philosophy to go in search of a utopia and make it a reality.
