What is C2PA?
C2PA is an open content provenance standard. Encypher co-authored the C2PA standard for unstructured text.
C2PA standard guideDoes the mark survive copy-paste?
For text, the mark is designed to persist through copy-paste, so you can verify even a short excerpt.
How the mark survives distributionHow is this different from AI detectors?
Detectors estimate a probability. Provenance proves origin cryptographically.
Provenance vs detectionWhat content types are supported?
Text, images, audio, video, and documents across many media types.
