We Exist to Make Every Product Trustworthy

MinuteWay was born from a simple frustration: in a world of sophisticated manufacturing, there was no reliable way for a customer to know if the product in their hands was real. We built the infrastructure to change that.

Our Mission

Eliminate Counterfeits. Build Trust.

Our mission is to give every manufactured product a verified digital identity — making it impossible for counterfeits to enter supply chains undetected, and giving customers the certainty they deserve when they buy.

We believe trust is the foundation of commerce. When customers can't trust what they buy, brands suffer, industries suffer, and ultimately the entire economy suffers. MinuteWay is the infrastructure layer that restores that trust.

Our Vision

A World Where Every Product Has a Verified Story

We envision a future where every product — from a pharmaceutical tablet to an automotive part to a luxury handbag — carries a permanent, verifiable digital identity that anyone can check in seconds.

A world where supply chains are transparent, counterfeits are instantly detectable, and the relationship between manufacturer and customer is built on provable trust — not hope.

Our Story

Built from Frustration. Driven by Purpose.

In 2018, MinuteWay's co-founder Arjun Mehta was managing supply chains for a major industrial manufacturer when a batch of counterfeit components caused a production shutdown — and nearly a safety incident. The counterfeits were indistinguishable from the real thing.

He called Priya Nair, a cryptography engineer he'd worked with years earlier. Together, they asked a simple question: why doesn't every product have a cryptographic identity the way every website has an SSL certificate?

Two years later, MinuteWay launched in Pune with a mission to make product verification as simple as scanning a QR code — and as trustworthy as a digital signature.

What We Believe

Our Values

Trust by Default

Every product deserves a verified identity. We build systems where authenticity is the baseline, not the exception.

Radical Transparency

Supply chains should be visible to everyone who depends on them — manufacturers, distributors, and customers alike.

Customer First

The end customer — the person who buys a product — is the ultimate beneficiary of everything we build.

Speed Matters

Verification that takes more than 2 seconds is verification that doesn't get used. We obsess over performance.
