Benefits of traction
Easy integration
Traction’s API allows for easy integration into existing business applications.
Enhanced interoperability
Traction is broadly compatible with existing technologies used by governments and organizations around the world.
Single solution
Rather than needing multiple digital tools to work across many organizations, one scalable instance of Traction can be used to control all connections and to share data.
Rapid improvement
Traction’s open-source foundation encourages collaborative refinement, faster releases, and higher scalability.
Use case example
Energy & Mines Digital Trust (EMDT) uses Traction to make it easier, safer, and more efficient to share and receive sustainability data, certifications, and credentials via a digital trust ecosystem.
Initiated by the B.C. government in November 2020, EMDT is coordinating several pilots to demonstrate how sustainability reporting can be made more efficient and trustworthy in a digital trust ecosystem.
Learn more about how Traction is used to enable sustainability reporting practices by exploring the EMDT case study.
