For partners
When “where did this come from?”
is a business decision.
Auriginal signs a record on the iPhone at the moment of capture: when it was taken, on what iPhone, and which sensors took a reading. Anyone can check it in a browser. Patent pending.

Where it helps
Anywhere a decision depends on where media came from, a signed capture record gives people something to check.
-
Newsrooms
Ask contributors for field photos and video with a signed capture record.
-
Insurance
Ask for claim photos with a signed capture record, and check each copy against it.
-
Legal & compliance
Keep a signed capture record with each photo through review and disclosure. Anyone can re-check it.
-
Platforms
Show viewers a signed capture record they can check for themselves.
-
Public safety
Help document where tips, reports and field photos came from.
-
Marketplaces & resale
Let sellers attach a photo signed on an iPhone at the moment it was taken, with a record buyers can check.
-
Something else?
If your work depends on where a photo or video came from, let’s talk.
What we license
We’re talking with partners about licensing Auriginal’s capture technology for their own products.
-
Multi-sensor capture attestation
Records which sensors took a reading at capture, and checks some readings against known physics: Earth’s magnetic field, gravity and the sun’s position.
-
Hardware-rooted signing
Each capture is signed with a key kept in the iPhone’s Secure Enclave, and the signature is bound to the file. Any change to the file or the record can be detected.
-
Public verification surface
An independent check your reviewers, viewers, or counterparties can run — no Auriginal account required to verify a capture.
How it works
-
1
Capture
At the moment of capture, the iPhone records which sensors took a reading, alongside the photo or video.
-
2
Bind
That record is signed on the iPhone and bound to the file, so any change to the file or the record can be detected.
-
3
Verify
Anyone can open the record in a browser, or check a copy against it, and see whether the file is unchanged.
Details of the methods are proprietary and patent pending. We share the architecture under NDA with partners.
