Chroniq
THE TRUSTED TIMELINE OF DIGITAL CREATION

Where ideas
become history.

Chroniq turns every file you upload into cryptographic evidence — SHA-256 fingerprinted, UTC-timestamped, and sealed into a verifiable Proof Certificate that anyone can independently confirm without ever seeing your source file.

01

Deposit

Drag and drop into your private vault. Files are encrypted at rest and never accessible to anyone but you.

02

Fingerprint

Chroniq computes a SHA-256 hash from the raw bytes server-side and locks in a UTC timestamp — independent of any AI output.

03

Certify

Download a signed Proof Certificate PDF with a QR code. Anyone can verify authorship and hash without seeing your file.

API-FIRST

Embed provenance
into any workflow.

Every capability of Chroniq is exposed as a REST API. Issue certificates and verify authenticity from your patent tool, LMS, CMS, document platform, or research pipeline — with API keys, versioned endpoints, and full OpenAPI docs.

LEGAL CLARITY

Chroniq establishes evidence of possession and timestamped provenance. It does not automatically grant a patent, copyright registration, or a legal determination of ownership. Your certificate is a tool for building your evidentiary record.
