Anyone can claim ownership. Only you can prove existence.
Certificate of Authenticity
An official, cryptographically backed certificate attributing file origin and state directly to your entity.
A VerixID Certificate of Authenticity (COA) serves as an verifiable artifact for business partners, legal counsel, auditors, or external stakeholders—proving conclusively that your file was anchored and bound to your identity at a precise point in time.

System Scope
What we prove — and what we don't.
VerixID is a mathematical witness, not an adjudicator. Absolute transparency regarding system boundaries is foundational to our trust model.
✔ What We Prove
- · The file existed at a specific ISO timestamp
- · The unique cryptographic fingerprint was registered first
- · The underlying file content has not been modified
- · The proof record is immutable post-registration
❌ What We Do Not Prove
- · Who originally authored the file content
- · The factual truth or quality of the content
- · Statutory copyright or legal ownership rights
- · Intent, damages, or judicial outcomes

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
- You need the unique Record ID generated during initial file submission. Navigate to our COA Request Page, input your Record ID, and complete payment. Your official COA will be generated immediately upon payment confirmation.
- A VerixID COA provides deterministic cryptographic evidence verifying file hash, timestamp, and signature integrity. Admissibility and evidentiary weight vary by legal jurisdiction and reside ultimately with the presiding judge or magistrate. For complex litigation requiring technical witness statements, explore our On-Demand Forensics.
- Yes. As long as the Record ID exists in the ledger, a COA can be requested at any point in the future. The timestamp displayed on the COA reflects the exact time the file hash was originally anchored—not the time the COA document was purchased.
- A COA is a standardized, self-service digital certificate ideal for standard verification requirements. On-Demand Forensics involves tailored engineering analysis, producing deep technical documentation, chain-of-custody reports, and litigation support.
- Due to the immutable nature of cryptographic attestation, purchases are non-refundable once issued. Please verify your Record ID before finalizing payment. Refer to our Refund Policy for full details.
- COAs are generated automatically within moments after payment confirmation.
