The UltraPass ID Story

Welcome to UltraPass ID, where we are transforming the way high-value data is shared among governments, businesses, and individuals.

Our journey began in March 2020, a pivotal moment when our founder Eric Starr, driven by a civic-minded mindset, witnessed the failures of a broken digital government platform amidst the COVID-19 crisis.

Having recently worked on Andrew Yang’s presidential campaign, our founder had a burning desire to tackle the challenges of engaging with the IRS, DMV, unemployment insurance, and other government agencies. Recognizing the need for a better way, our visionary founder embarked on a mission to transform the citizen experience, and the way individuals engage digitally with government systems and programs.

Through extensive research and collaboration with like-minded problem solvers, including our Co-founder Dave Boulet, we delved into the root causes of the problem. We discovered that the siloed nature of government data, for legitimate privacy reasons, hampers a seamless citizen experience. While private information is safeguarded within each jurisdiction, it poses significant challenges for citizens when interacting with multiple government entities. 

Driven by a vision to empower individuals, we developed groundbreaking technology that puts control of personal information back into the hands of citizens. By allowing individuals to share their data as needed, both within and outside government systems, we simplify access to vital services while respecting privacy regulations.

As a public benefit corporation, our mission goes beyond profitability. We are dedicated to simplifying civic engagement and improving the lives of individuals worldwide. Our technology enables citizens to effortlessly share verified information, such as voter credentials, with government entities. Imagine registering as a voter or casting your vote securely from your phone, all with a few simple taps.

We have worked tirelessly to develop our technology, forge strong partnerships, and build a pipeline of customers who share our vision of a simplified citizen experience. By joining UltraPass ID, you become an integral part of our mission. We value your participation, feedback, and support as we continue to innovate and enhance our services.
