Why certaByte?
The work is yours.
certaByte is how you prove it.
You made it.
You know exactly what it cost you, the late nights, the years of practice behind the skill, the version you threw away and started over.
Which is why it hits so hard the day you find it on someone else's page with their name under it.
And why it stings in a quieter way when a buyer hesitates, wondering whether a machine made it in nine seconds.
certaByte was built for both of those moments.
What certaByte does
certaByte is an independent, third-party registry that protects your creative work from copyright theft.
It also does something copyright registration alone can never do, which is show the world that your work is genuine, authentic, and not generated by AI or produced by someone else.
Every certaByte product is built on the same three ideas.
Registration, certification, notification
Registration
You put your work on the record.
You upload your finished creative work, which we call your final.
You attach the evidence behind it, the rough sketches, the layered source files, the RAW captures, the drafts, and the recordings that only the real author could ever have.
You verify that you are a real, named human being.
From that moment your work exists in an independent registry, dated and held by a third party, long before anyone thinks to dispute it.
Certification
We examine it and put our name on the answer.
A certaByte analyst reviews your final, your supporting documents, and your creator profile against our trust rubric.
We check the file forensically, validate any Content Credentials cryptographically, and weigh everything against who you are.
Then we issue you a certificate carrying a certaScore™, our confidence rating that the work is genuinely yours.
It is not a claim you are making about yourself, which is exactly what gives it weight.
Notification
When you need to prove it, we help you say so.
Proof that sits in a drawer protects nobody.
So certaByte gives you three ways to put your certificate to work, whether you are reassuring an audience, answering a skeptic, or confronting a thief.
You decide who sees it and when, because your certificate is reached only through the link or badge you choose to share.
For your audience
Show it
Attach a badge or a certificate link to your work on social media, your website, or your storefront, so anyone looking at it can see it was certified and who it belongs to.
For anyone who asks
Send it
Send a proof notice to a client, a buyer, or a platform that wants more than a badge, and they receive certified evidence of your authorship directly from us.
For the thief
Enforce it
File a takedown notice when someone is profiting from your work without permission, and we help you write it, back it with your certificate, and get it in front of the right platform.
But you already keep your own files
You do, and that is a good habit, but in a dispute it is still your word against theirs.
Anyone can attach files to a claim, and with AI a thief can now manufacture believable source files for work they never made.
A platform staring at two piles of self-supplied evidence has no way to choose, so it guesses, and sometimes it guesses against you.
An independent party that confirmed your identity and examined your evidence before the dispute ever existed is what turns your word into proof.
You should not have to argue for something you already know is true.
Register it, certify it, and have the proof ready before you need it.
