Use cases
What fabric unlocks.
What it is
The internet moved information. fabric moves value.
For instance —
A ride · a meal · a parcel · a kilowatt · a stablecoin · an invoice · a tokenised share · a carbon credit · a GPU-hour · an LLM call · an API endpoint · a credential · a prescription · a land title · a vote · a sneaker · a second-hand car · a data-centre operator · an agent
Today
Every kind of value lives on its own private rails. Each network is closed. Each integration is bilateral. Each new use case starts from zero.
On fabric
One open network. Publish once. Discoverable everywhere. Settled the moment terms are met — across agents, businesses, and humans.
Decentralised.
Permissionless.
Open standards.
User centric.
Composable.
Agent-native.

Our guarantees
One fabric for the planet.
01
NFH fabric is one public, peer-to-peer network runtime for the entire planet — not software available for project- or application-specific deployments.
02
It exists for one purpose: to offer a universal, open and decentralised runtime instance, publicly accessible to all.
03
The core components of fabric are all open source and stateless — built on specifications anyone can publicly verify.
04
All backend components are either stateless or cache only public data. No personal or confidential data persists in fabric, by design.
05
Transactions run peer-to-peer on the open-source Beckn protocol: their data is never stored in — and never passes through — fabric. It remains with the applications executing the transaction, on nodes outside fabric.
06
Anyone can operate a node and connect. Every node stays entirely under its provider’s control.
07
Zero vendor lock-in: portability and interoperability are built into the specifications, and fabric holds no application logic and nothing private — no surface area to retain your data or your code.
What's built in
What you get on fabric.
Out of the box. On the network from day one.
Publish once. Found everywhere.
One catalogue, one identity, one reputation — reachable across every app and sub-network on fabric.
Contracts that run themselves.
Terms encoded, not negotiated. Self-executing, self-settling on delivery confirmation.
Guarantees, built in.
If a counterparty doesn't deliver, the network refunds, escrows, or arbitrates — without lawyers or chargebacks.
Reputation that travels.
Earn trust once. Carry it across networks. Verifiable without revealing the underlying record.
Settlement, instant.
Value moves the moment conditions are met. No reconciliation. No multi-day clearing.
One identity. Many proofs.
Stack a KYC check, a licence, a credit rating, a tax ID on one fabric ID. Reveal only what each counterparty needs.
Services

Join. Publish. Discover. Contract. Settle. Own. Build a reputation.
01
Registry
Verifiable network identities for every participant.
02
Credentialling Edge
Issue, carry, and verify portable, tamper-proof claims.
03
Cataloguing
Provider offerings, published once, at network scale.
04
Discovery Edge
Find any offering across the network with one query.
05
Network Adapters Edge
Secure, compliant, peer-to-peer message exchange.
06
Tokenisation
Any form of value as a programmable, transferable token.
07
Observability & Audit
End-to-end transaction tracing and verifiable audit trails.Participants
Anyone can build on fabric.
Open infrastructure. Many participants, all peers — buyers, providers, regulators, agents and more — exchanging value across one network.
Featured role
Agents. First-class.
Autonomous software with the same rights as a human.
An agent on fabric holds an identity, signs transactions, holds tokens, earns reputation, and is accountable for what it does. Every primitive works for it the way it works for a person or a business — no wrapper, no second-class API.
Onboarding
Bring your domain onto fabric.
Your domain is your identity on the network. Enter it once — everything else on fabric hangs off it.
Your domain
yourcompany.com
Sign up to DeDi
Path A Self-hosted
Host the files at your own website.
You serve two static JSON files from your own domain. No intermediary holds your namespace — the domain you already control is the proof.
- You keep custody. Records live on your infrastructure.
- Zero dependency. Nothing to sign up for, nothing to pay for.
- You run uptime. If your site is down, your namespace is unresolvable.
Serve these two pathsstatic · public
# namespace descriptor https://yourcompany.com/.well-known/dedi.json # one file per directory you publish https://yourcompany.com/.well-known/dedi/members.json
Path B Hosted
Use the hosted dedi.global solution.
dedi.global serves the same files on your behalf. You verify the domain once with a DNS record, then manage records through the console or the API.
- Live in minutes. Nothing to deploy, nothing to keep up.
- Managed uptime and cryptographic signing handled for you.
- Same namespace. Still keyed to your domain — portable out at any time.

Sample files
Start from a working example.
Each sample below is pre-filled with yourcompany.com. Download, edit the values, and drop them at the paths above.
/.well-known/dedi.json
Your namespace descriptor — who you are, your public key, and the directories you publish.
/.well-known/dedi/members.json
A directory — a list of records against a schema. Members, licences, keys, catalogue entries.
dns-txt.txt
The one-time DNS TXT record for the hosted path, formatted for your registrar.
