The Problem
Deepfakes aren’t the threat — uncertainty is.
As generative AI accelerates, it’s no longer possible to trust what you see. Fake videos, AI avatars, and unauthorized edits can impersonate leaders, distort facts, and undermine critical communications.
Fact-checking, detecting AI, or labeling something as true or false alone won’t cut it — it’s a losing arms race. The real solution is about having the tools to know where the content came from and how it may have been changed.
The Vision
Verified Authentic is a blockchain-powered platform for proving content provenance — cryptographically, publicly, and permanently.
Built on Polkadot and based on trusted C2PA and CAWG content authenticity standards, Verified Authentic creates a tamper-proof ledger of who created a piece of content, as well as when and how it’s been edited. If the Content Credentials don’t match the blockchain record, it’s flagged — no guesswork required.
We’re not detecting deepfakes.
We’re declaring authenticity.
How It Works
Verified Authentic offers an innovative approach to building trust in published videos.
- Content creators embed Content Credentials using C2PA standards.
- Verified Authentic logs those credentials on a decentralized blockchain, providing public proof of source, integrity, and authorization.
- Viewers and platforms can verify authenticity at playback, without relying on any central gatekeeper.
The blockchain serves as a distributed “blue checkmark” for digital content — verifiable by anyone, owned by no one.
Why It Matters
For media publishers, content creators, governments, and enterprises, Verified Authentic protects against manipulation, impersonation, and disinformation. It ensures audiences receive official, unaltered content, and gives creators proof of authorship. In a world of synthetic media, authenticity becomes your most valuable asset.

Built by Experts
Created by Vbrick in collaboration with Polkadot and BlockDeep Labs, Verified Authentic is grounded in open, auditable standards inherent to blockchains: no vendor lock-in, no proprietary traps. Just trust — cryptographically enforced.
