Basis Theory

Basis Theory has presented 1 V-Sum technical briefing. Brian, co-founder of Basis Theory, walks through the Basis Theory platform — a developer-first tokenization and encryption service for any sensitive value on the internet. The demo covers tenants (test/prod, sub-customer, or geo-split workspaces), Elements (drop-in UI that keeps you out of PCI scope for cards, bank accounts, SSNs, and driver's licenses), and server-to-server apps gated by PCI Level 1 attestation. Basis Theory tokenizes any serializable value — strings, documents, PII, cards, bank accounts — and returns a consistent token shape with type, fingerprint, and non-sensitive metadata so developers can dedupe without decryption. Customers can roll their own keypair (bring-your-own-key) so Basis Theory only sees ciphertext. The reactor system ships pre-built serverless templates (Stripe, Braintree, BIN analysis via Perapt) and private reactors for custom integrations, allowing partners to tokenize a card once and route to multiple processors without ever touching the raw PAN.
