Truepic is continuously working to use the latest in computer vision, AI, and cryptography technologies to solve the complex task of photo and video verification.
People often rely on what they see to discern truth. But digital photos and videos can be manipulated in several ways, making it a challenge to trust their contents.
Using one of the countless accessible photo or video editing apps to add, remove, or modify objects in an image.
Changing the location information embedded in the photo or video, to make it appear as if it were captured somewhere else.
Changing or removing the time, date, camera model, and other information typically embedded into the photo or video by the capture device.
Taking a picture of an existing picture (possibly a manipulated one), with the intention of passing it off as an original.
Re-sharing a photo or video found on the Internet as if it were an original, with or without additional modification.
Using artificial intelligence to fabricate photos and videos. Includes deepfakes, which can show victims saying or doing things they never said or did.
Truepic's patented Controlled Capture technology establishes trust in digital photos and videos by verifying their origin, pixel contents, and metadata, from the instant the capture button is pressed. It leverages cutting-edge machine learning, computer vision, and cryptographic techniques to ensure the highest possible levels of trust, credibility, and immutability.
In addition to the data from the image sensor, Controlled Capture technology uses additional data and testing to establish trust in photos or videos. Only those images that pass the extensive verification process are designated as authentic originals, for the maximum possible level of trust.
Every photo and video taken with Controlled Capture technology passes through an unbroken chain of custody, from the instant the light reaches the image sensor to the time the image is shared with the recipient. Every link in the chain of custody is logged and can be verified at any point later.
The unique cryptographic signature of each photo and video taken using Controlled Capture technology is written to the blockchain. This creates an immutable record in a distributed public ledger, which is outside Truepic's control, for maximum resiliency.
Truepic’s patented Controlled Capture technology is at the heart of our products that offer the highest level of trust, for organizations ranging from insurance carriers to NGOs.
Truepic Vision is our trusted virtual inspection platform, built from the ground-up to drastically simplify and speed up the virtual inspection process for insurance carriers and lenders.
