Build 'AgeGuard AI'—a $10K/year SaaS platform combining **zero-knowledge proofs (ZKPs)**, **federated identity**, and **edge AI** to verify user ages without collecting PII. The platform includes: 1) **ZKP-Based Verification**: Users prove age thresholds (e.g., 13+, 16+) via government-issued credentials without revealing DOB (e.g., 'User is 18+—verified by state DMV'); 2) **Parental Proxy Mode**: Allows guardians to authorize access for minors under 13 (e.g., 'Parent approves TikTok for Child #XYZ'); 3) **Regulatory Risk Dashboard**: Shows compliance gaps by jurisdiction (e.g., 'Mississippi: 95% compliant—no blocked users'); 4) **Content Safety Module**: Integrates with platforms to enforce age-appropriate feeds (e.g., 'Safe mode enabled for users under 16').
