C2PA explained

What is C2PA? A simple guide to Content Credentials

What are Content Credentials?

Content Credentials can describe who signed media, what actions were declared and whether the file still matches the signed manifest.

C2PA vs AI detection

C2PA is not fake detection or AI detection. It verifies evidence about provenance and integrity when credentials exist.

Inspect credentials without overclaiming

ProvSeal reads manifests, badges the result, explains certificate-chain status and keeps No credentials separate from any claim that content is false.

Trusted — Valid Content Credentials plus recognized trust-chain status.

Signed but untrusted — Signed data exists, but public trust is not established.

Invalid — C2PA evidence exists but validation failed.

No credentials — No C2PA evidence detected.
