MANUSCRIPT AUTHORSHIP PROTECTION

Prove your manuscript is yours — before anyone else can claim it.

True Origin records a tamper-proof fingerprint of your manuscript on the blockchain, with the date and time, and gives you a certificate to prove it. Built for independent authors.

How it works

STEP 1

Upload your manuscript

Your file is fingerprinted (SHA-256) right in your browser. We never receive or store your book.

STEP 2

Timestamp it on the blockchain

The fingerprint is written to the Polygon blockchain — a permanent, public record of that exact file at that moment.

STEP 3

Download your certificate

Get a branded PDF certificate with a QR code anyone can scan to verify the record.

Proof anyone can check — without trusting us

Your manuscript's fingerprint is a 64-character code calculated from the file itself. The same file always gives the same fingerprint, and changing even one character gives a completely different one. Once it's on the blockchain, the record and its date can't be changed by anyone — including us.

Years from now, anyone with your original file can recalculate its fingerprint and find the matching record on Polygonscan, the public blockchain explorer. If they match, that exact manuscript existed on that date.
