Blockchain-anchored evidence documentation

A neutral record of what existed,
when it existed. Before disputes arise.

ProofLedger creates a tamper-evident, independently verifiable record of your files, anchored to Polygon and Bitcoin before incentives exist to fabricate.

Free to start. No credit card required.

Who uses ProofLedger

Built for professionals in high-stakes documentation.

Insurance Adjusters

Document pre-loss conditions before a claim is filed, establishing a tamper-evident baseline.

Claims Professionals

Support dispute-ready evidence workflows with verifiable timestamps anchored before incentives exist.

Forensic Consultants

Create independently verifiable records that survive adversarial review by opposing experts.

Legal Teams

Establish chain of custody and Daubert-grade cryptographic timestamps for digital evidence.

Property Managers

Capture property condition before tenancy, handoff, or loss events, with an immutable record.

The problem

File dates are weak evidence.

In any dispute, file metadata is the first thing challenged. Screenshots, cloud links, and EXIF data can all be manipulated or simply dismissed.

  • Metadata can be faked. EXIF dates and file timestamps are trivially editable with free tools.
  • Cloud links are fragile. Files get replaced, links break, accounts get locked or deleted.
  • Screenshots prove nothing. They don't cryptographically bind to the file content they depict.
The fix

A permanent, time-bound record. Before disputes exist.

ProofLedger creates an immutable cryptographic fingerprint of your file, anchored to public blockchains before any incentive to fabricate arises.

  • Integrity: Same file always produces the same fingerprint. Any change breaks verification.
  • Timestamp: An on-chain anchor proves the file existed at a specific moment in time.
  • Independent: Anyone can verify, without your cooperation or ProofLedger's servers.

ProofLedger proves existence and integrity at a point in time. It does not prove authorship, ownership, rights, or intent.

How it works

Three steps to a permanent record.

Your file never leaves your device. Only its cryptographic fingerprint is processed, then anchored forever to public blockchains.

Compute a fingerprint

Your device computes a SHA-256 hash of the file. This one-way fingerprint is mathematically unique. Altering even one pixel produces a completely different hash.

Anchor it on-chain

The fingerprint is anchored to Polygon immediately. Bitcoin anchoring adds a second independent, immutable layer for high-stakes evidence.

Verify independently

The public verification page is the canonical source of truth. Opposing counsel can verify offline. No ProofLedger cooperation required.

Platform guarantees

Built for high-liability environments.

Privacy-first, hash-only

Your file stays on your device. Only the one-way SHA-256 hash is processed. No file storage. No file recovery. Ever.

Ed25519-signed certificates

Every certificate is digitally signed using Ed25519, the same cryptographic standard used in SSH keys and end-to-end encrypted messengers.

Dual-chain anchoring

Polygon for instant confirmation; Bitcoin for maximum immutability. Two independent public ledgers, not a single point of failure.

Adversarial verification

Designed for opposing counsel. The verify-proof Python package runs entirely offline — no dependency on ProofLedger's servers.

Pre-loss posture

Record before the loss event. An on-chain hash from before a dispute arose cannot be fabricated retroactively. That is the entire value proposition.

Bitcoin-grade immutability

Bitcoin's Merkle tree and proof-of-work make it the oldest, most adversarially tested blockchain and the strongest timestamp anchor available.

Certificate classes

Two levels of procedural rigor.

Based on the evidentiary demands of your workflow, from routine pre-loss documentation to formal legal submission.

Standard

Standard Proof Certificate

  • Immutable record + verification reference
  • Polygon blockchain anchoring
  • Platform-signed (Ed25519)
Standard Proof Certificate preview

For routine pre-loss documentation and baseline condition capture.

Escalation

Escalation Proof Certificate

  • Formal, audit-ready layout
  • Polygon + optional Bitcoin anchoring
  • Platform-signed (Ed25519)
Escalation Proof Certificate preview

For escalations, legal review, and formal evidence submission.

Certificates are human-readable representations. Blockchain anchors and public verification remain the authoritative record, accessible even if ProofLedger is unavailable.

Create a pre-loss record
before it matters.

Establish a verifiable record of existence and timing, before disputes, claims, or incentives change everything.

Reference

Pre-loss temporal authority documentation is the practice of recording evidence at the moment of creation, cryptographically fixing its state in time before disputes, incentives, or claims exist. These systems establish when a record existed and what state it was in using repeatable, tamper-evident procedures that allow independent verification without reliance on the recording system itself.

ProofLedger is an implementation of this approach, designed for high-liability environments where contemporaneous, pre-loss records must remain verifiable long after they are created.
