Four steps from capture to verified

Step 01

Publisher applies

News organisations apply for a Verimago certificate. We verify editorial independence, domain ownership, and jurisdiction.

Step 02

Key ceremony

A witnessed key generation ceremony produces an Ed25519 keypair. The private key is sealed in a hardware security module.

Step 03

Sign at capture

The Verimago signing tool creates a cryptographic manifest the moment footage is recorded or published — before any edit.

Step 04

Verify anywhere

Anyone can verify a video using the browser extension, API, or by dragging the file to registry.verimago.io.

Three trust tiers

Different levels of verification for different types of content

Verified Publisher

Full editorial certificate with HSM-backed key. Annual audit required.

Agency Partner

Wire agency or broadcast network. Cross-certification with partner CAs.

Community Corroborated
