About Arkiv Expand
Arkiv provides a specialized IP protection service for designers, creatives, agencies, and studios. It focuses on proving ownership of digital assets through blockchain timestamping, a critical need in today's digital landscape.
The core mechanism involves local browser hashing, ensuring that users never upload their files. This 'zero-upload' approach is particularly valuable for professionals working under strict NDAs or handling sensitive intellectual property.
By anchoring proof on both Base and Story Protocol, Arkiv offers a specific Certificate of Provenance, helping creators protect their work against theft or unauthorized use.
