An identity indexer is a tool or service that aggregates and organizes decentralized identity data from multiple sources (e.g., blockchains, IPFS) into a searchable, standardized format. It indexes identity attributes, credentials, and reputation signals, enabling applications to query and verify identities efficiently without scanning entire networks. Indexers use crawlers to discover identity-related data, normalize it into structured schemas, and store it in databases for fast retrieval. This improves interoperability by providing a unified view of fragmented identity data, simplifying verification workflows for dApps, services, and users while preserving privacy through selective disclosure mechanisms.
