Named specialists examine. Every piece fingerprinted and documented. Every verdict signed, every record permanent and public.

Real pieces with public certificates. Open any piece to read its full record: the specialist, the evidence, the verdict.
Real is no longer obvious. Fakes are better than ever, and AI makes them cheaper to produce every month. The market has stopped taking anyone's word for it: unproven pieces sell at a discount, while proven pieces command the premium. Whether you're selling, insuring, or passing a collection on, buyers and institutions now expect proof. See our case study →
A named specialist examines the piece against the evidence standard for its category. The forensic record is built with AI, checked before publication, and signed. Verdict and evidence published, permanently.
Condition graded on a published S–F standard, flag by flag: grade-affecting damage, production wear, and conservation notes, each documented. A buyer knows exactly what they're getting.
Grading standards → A grade is not an authentication →Museum-grade archival housing, matched to the material. Acetate cels need to breathe and paper needs acid-free housing, so each piece goes into the right enclosure and conservation storage, never an airtight slab. Built to last for generations.
A signed, USPAP-compliant valuation prepared to the standard insurers, the IRS, and courts require. For insurance, estate planning, and donations.
About appraisals →Prove it once. The record is permanent, public, and verifiable by anyone, forever. See an example record ↗
Every record on the platform is signed by the specialist who examined it. You see who judged your item, what they checked, and the evidence. Forever.
You've spent decades inside your category. You're the one people call before they buy. That makes you a collectibles authenticator, whether or not anyone's printed it on a business card yet.
The rest of the industry hides its specialists, because employees can be poached. We put your name on the certificate, because partners can't be.
Your clients. Your pricing. Your specialty. Your reputation compounds under your own name, not ours.
Permanent registry, tamper-evident seals, blockchain anchoring, payments, a marketplace, and the tools. Everything too expensive to build alone.
We're looking for founding partners and artists now. The full system is FREE for your first year, and the founding cohort shapes the platform.
