The Problem We Solve

AI-generated media is on a rapidly exponential rise, and it’s now become indistinguishable from real digital media. Consumers can’t reliably verify who made what. This fuels misinformation, fraud, and erodes trust in digital media.
The Stakes Are High: Global financial damages from deepfake-enabled fraud may approach or exceed $40 billion (Deloitte, 2024).The average cost per deepfake scam incident to businesses is approximately $500,000 (Regula, 2024; Eftsure, 2025).

​
How Trust Engine Works

Trust Engine provides privacy-preserving records at the moment of creation or distribution.
What Trust Engine Does: Creates immutable, timestamped records of who registered digital media on our protocol and when.
What Trust Engine Does NOT Do:
  • Determine rightful ownership or settle disputes
  • Judge whether media is AI-generated vs. human-created
  • Make claims about media accuracy or editorial truth
  • Act as arbiters of what’s politically correct or appropriate

​
Two-Party Architecture

  • Creators
  • Public Verification
Submit digital media piece and register proofs of ownership and origin
  • Upload files via REST API
  • Generate cryptographic proofs
  • Receive immutable timestamps

For Creators/Publishers

Prove “I had it first” without exposing your digital media piece. Defend against theft, false attribution, and secure your intellectual property with cryptographic timestamps.

For Platforms & Publishers

Get a portable trust signal that travels with digital media. Verify authenticity without handling sensitive files or relying on centralized authorities.

For Consumers

Check digital media provenance and integrity instantly. Know the origin of digital media without depending on watermarks that can be forged.

For Developers

Integrate provenance verification into your applications with simple REST APIs. No blockchain expertise required.

​
Why Trust Engine?

Your digital media stays private and forever on the registry. We use cryptographic hashes so file contents are never exposed in the registry.
Check authenticity in real-time through simple API calls. No complex blockchain interactions required.
REST APIs with comprehensive documentation. Integrate provenance checking into any application in minutes.
