🧠 Inspiration

With SMS phishing attacks costing over $12.5 billion annually, we saw a major gap in how users verify the authenticity of messages. People are bombarded with links and codes from banks, ecommerce platforms, and health agencies — but have no idea if they’re real or not.

I was inspired to create a privacy-first solution where users could verify messages without ever revealing personal data, using blockchain and AI — and that's how SigText was born.


🔍 What it does

SigText is a decentralized Web3 mobile first message verification platform that lets users:

  • ✅ Verify signed SMS messages and QR codes
  • ✅ Get real-time verification via blockchain
  • ✅ Hear verification results through natural voice feedback
  • ✅ Use the app offline — privacy is never compromised

No accounts, no data collection, no middlemen — just instant trust.


🛠️ How I have built it

I have built SigText entirely using Bolt.new, which enabled us to go from prototype to production quickly.

Technology Stack:

  • Frontend: React Native (Expo), TypeScript, Expo Router
  • Backend: Supabase for real-time data and auth
  • Blockchain: Algorand via Nodely.io for cryptographic checks
  • Voice AI: ElevenLabs for accessibility & feedback
  • Security: Row-Level Security (RLS), no PII storage, end-to-end encryption

The app is modular, scalable, and built with performance and accessibility in mind.


🧱 Challenges we ran into

  • 🔐 Integrating cryptographic verification with a friendly UI
  • 🌐 Learning how to interact with the Algorand blockchain efficiently
  • 🧪 Testing real-time voice synthesis across various devices
  • 🔄 Ensuring the system works offline without storing any sensitive user data

Every challenge pushed me closer to a more secure and inclusive product.


🏆 Accomplishments that we're proud of

  • ✅ Built a production-ready, decentralized app in record time using Bolt.new
  • ✅ Achieved zero-PII verification with end-to-end privacy
  • ✅ Integrated voice feedback for accessibility (a first for message verification apps)
  • ✅ Seamlessly connected blockchain, Supabase, and AI in one unified platform

📚 What I learned

  • How to create a trust layer on top of everyday communication tools
  • How to combine blockchain tech with real-time user experience
  • The importance of designing for accessibility from day one
  • The value of modular, API-first architecture for future scaling

🚀 What's next for SigText

  • 🌍 Multi-chain support: Ethereum, Solana, and others
  • 🧠 AI-based fraud detection to flag suspicious messages proactively
  • 📊 Enterprise dashboard for analytics and integration
  • 🧩 API marketplace & white-label support for partners
  • 🌐 Global rollout in high-risk sectors like banking, government, and healthcare
