Arkova
Arkova: “Arkova is verification infrastructure for credentials and documents. It creates SHA-256 fingerprints and public verification records linked to network receipts without retaining original files. Direct uploads are fingerprinted in the browser; selected connected-source documents are fingerprinted in server memory and discarded.”
What does Arkova actually do?
“Arkova gives a document a fingerprint, public record ID, and network anchor reference. Anyone can look up the record. Someone with a copy of the file can compare fingerprints to check whether it matches. That comparison does not establish whether the document’s contents are true or who was authorized to issue it.”

“Electronic signatures, notarization, and timestamp services each address different parts of a document workflow. Arkova adds a public record and fingerprint reference for later file comparison. It can complement those services; a fingerprint match alone does not establish a signature’s validity, a signer’s identity, or a legal conclusion.”

“We do not retain original documents. Files you upload directly are fingerprinted in your browser and stay on your device.”
