Attesté Certificate
Living digital provenance with SHA-256 integrity hashing, tiered certification (Standard / Enhanced / Professional), QR codes, and shareable certificate faces. Your artwork's verified biography — which, for artist-made works, begins with its First Witness: the maker’s own account, recorded and sealed at creation.
ProvenanceTranscript — Feature 03, The certificate that proves it
Every app says your records are secured. Almost none of them tell you what that actually means.
So here is exactly what happens, step by step, when this one says it.
The certificate gets a fingerprint. A SHA-256 hash. That hash goes to OpenTimestamps. Two independent calendars witness it.
The next Bitcoin block absorbs it. About an hour.
After that, the proof stands on its own. You don’t need us to vouch for it.
AI Art Scout

AI-PoweredTranscript — Feature 04, Ask it about art
Thirty years, I’ve told collectors the truth about their paintings. It has rarely made me popular. Your phone is about to do the same.
Point it at something you don’t own yet. No label. No title. No artist. Just the picture.
It reads the surface. The impasto. The palette knife. Then it names it. Solitary Sentinel. Oil on canvas. Expressionism.
And then it does the thing nobody expects. It refuses to flatter it. Competently executed, it says. Strong decorative appeal. And its collectible value? That would depend on an artist you’d have to go and research.
Which is the honest answer. Not the flattering one. Attesté.

Utility
Scan the Invoice
Record what you paid, who you bought it from, and when — without typing any of it. When you add a work, Attesté asks for the invoice you already have. Photograph it or attach the PDF, and the price, seller and transaction date are read straight off the page and filled in for you. Every field is shown for you to check before anything is saved. Optional, always — you can still type the details yourself.
AcquisitionTranscript — Feature 02, Scan the invoice
My receipts live in three places. Email, WhatsApp, and a drawer. Here’s the part I wish I’d known sooner — I don’t retype any of them any more.
Here’s how to log what you paid, who you bought it from, and when, without typing any of it.
When you add a work, Attesté asks for the invoice. The one you already have. Point it at the document. A photo, or a PDF.
It reads the price, the seller and the date straight off the page. Every field ticked. Yours to check, before you save.
Tap the Tag
A physical NFC tag can be bound to an artwork’s certificate of attestation. Once bound, holding your phone against the tag opens that certificate’s verification view — a physical handshake between the work on the wall and its digital provenance. The tag carries no record of its own; it points at the one already in the app. Requires the iOS or Android app.
VerificationTranscript — Feature 06, The tag on the frame
The record lives on your phone. But the tag lives on the frame. Tap one against the other, and the painting knows its own record.
There’s a tag on the back of the frame. Hold your phone against it. The tag doesn’t carry the record — it points at it.
And the certificate comes back verified.

ProtectionTranscript — Feature 05, The Insurance Vault
Some of these have been on my walls for forty years. If there were a fire tonight, I could tell you exactly what I lost. I could not prove a single piece of it.
Everything you own, in one view. What it’s documented at. How much of it is actually insured.
Then the part nobody enjoys. The gaps, counted. Four with no policy at all. And one that quietly lapsed in June. You would have found that out at the claim.
Condition, broken down. Eight excellent. Four good.
It isn’t telling you you’re covered. It’s showing you where you aren’t. Attesté.

ProtectionTranscript — Feature 05, The schedule
My broker asked me for a schedule of the collection. I sent him a shoebox. Actual receipts, in an actual box. It took him three weeks.
One tap. Collection inventory. Every work. Title, artist, medium, year, condition, documented value.
And where each number came from. Invoice. Not a guess.
Prepared for you, by name. Dated, page numbered, totalled.
Print it, or send it straight to your broker. The document you hope you never need.
