A flawless fake now costs nothing, and the object's word is worthless. Submit an object and Verify checks it against the maker's own records, the movement maker, trademark filings, and stolen-property registers — then returns a Provenance Confidence Score: a plain verdict with every source named.
That’s what brings an object to veradis. Four questions send people looking. The network answers all four.
“Is it real before I pay?”
One in three buyers has hit a scam on a second-hand marketplace in the last two years.Which?
“What have I actually got?”
Papers in a drawer. Worth unknown until it’s too late.
“Can I prove it when asked?”
EU AI Act, Digital Product Passport, marketplace due-diligence — provenance is becoming mandatory, not optional.
“Would our best objects survive scrutiny?”
A collection uncatalogued and uninsured is a cost centre — until its best objects are proven.
Put any object to the test. It comes back proven — every source named.
The Provenance Confidence Score is not an aggregate of opinion. Nine checks resolve into four components — each sourced from named institutions, scored on its own, defensible alone. Walk through the four.
The Provenance Confidence Score is an intelligence report. Not a certificate. Every component scored. Every source named. Three objects, three verdicts — a watch, a wedding service, a Victoria Cross — each number and each gap explained.
Custody holds at 70 by a structural limit: Raymond Weil issues no manufacturer extract, and no public auction record exists for this serial. The gap is named, not hidden.
Add provenance to reach Gold →Maker mark and registration verified; Interpol and FBI registries clear; provenance documented to the 1939 wedding. Twelve of twelve views on file — one element held open, honestly.
Documentary today: the naming engraving is unphotographed and the title papers aren’t digitised — two checks held open. One supervised vault session lifts the score toward ~92. The gaps are named, and so is the path to close them.
Add the vault session to reach Gold →Four reasons, each with a price tag. Buyers pay for certainty. Owners pay because provenance lifts what the object is worth. Platforms pay because the regulator is starting to ask. Institutions pay to make their best objects insurable, lendable, and defensible.
Buying an object you can’t defend is a loss you carry alone. The verdict, the component scores, and the named sources arrive before you sign — the risk becomes one the network has already named.
How a collector might describe it"Before I commit, I know what I am actually paying for."
For the buyerA documented chain of custody separates a lot from an important lot. The Appraise dossier — value range, named sources, signed PDF — travels with the object, and the buyer pays what the provenance justifies. Provenance is value; the dossier makes it cashable.
How an owner might describe it"The lot with the dossier cleared above estimate. The lot without it didn’t."
For the ownerEU AI Act transparency. Digital Product Passport mandates from 2027. Marketplace due-diligence duties. Three frameworks, one demand: a defensible citation chain. The Per-ping API returns it — compliance becomes a function call, not a policy review.
How a platform might describe it"Every claim our model ships now carries the citation chain the regulator expects."
For the platformA regiment’s Victoria Cross, a founder’s papers — the star objects that carry the story and anchor the fundraising. Verify the top 100 and each becomes insurable, lendable, and defensible: a record that holds up to a challenge, a loan committee, or a grant board.
How a museum director might describe it“Our best objects now carry a record we can put in front of an insurer, a lender, or a donor.”
For the institutionThree ways to query. Same network, same evidence trail. Pick the depth that suits the moment — a quick check, a defended report, or a programmatic ping for the agents running at scale.

Is it real? The Provenance Confidence Score, the confidence band, the component scores, and every source named. Submit a photograph, a reference, or a serial. Delivered as a signed PDF with permalink. For the moment you need a verdict before you pay. Every new photo or document after that is a CHF 5 re-run — it tightens the ±.
Real — worth what? Everything in the Verify report, plus an indicative value range drawn from real sales. Not a certified appraisal — the number a listing, an insurer conversation, or an estate discussion starts from. See Appraise →
For AI agents, registries, and platforms hitting the network at scale. Same JSON response, same Provenance Confidence Score, same evidence trail — billed per request. Volume continues past a million pings a month. Talk to the team for API access →
All Verify queries are paid up-front through Stripe. Unscored reports — where the network has insufficient data to return a confident answer — are refunded in full. Flagged reports — where the network finds evidence of counterfeit, theft, or inconsistency — are delivered with sources and kept. We do not sell an inconclusive answer.
One object. One verdict. The dossier is the proof. Submit a photograph or a reference and the network returns a Provenance Confidence Score with the evidence trail attached.
