Introduction
Trust online is broken. Simple out-of-context fakes, deceptive edits, and false claims of authorship have been eroding trust for years. With AI, it’s easier than ever to create convincing synthetic videos, fabricated audio clips, or AI-generated images that look 100% real.
Que provides a proactive solution. Instead of playing the cat-and-mouse game of trying to detect fakes, we focus on proving what's real. By attaching a secure, verifiable "birth certificate" and a tamper-evident history to your content, you give your audience a reliable way to verify its origin and history, protecting your brand and combating misinformation at its source.
How to Use Que
We offer a simple, scalable, and secure way to prove the origin and history of your images, videos, and documents. This helps your users trust that the content they see is authentic, protecting your brand and combating misinformation at its source.
Attach a Digital Birth Certificate
Que allows you to bind a secure, digital "birth certificate" to an asset. We bundle information about an asset's creation and editing history into a tamper-evident data structure called a manifest.
-
What is it? A manifest contains assertions (like who created it and what software was used) that are cryptographically signed. This signature proves that the information is authentic and hasn't been altered since it was attached.
-
Why use it? In a world of sophisticated AI-generated content, detecting fakes is a losing battle. Que offers a proactive solution: proving what's real. They provide a verifiable chain of provenance (the asset's origin and history) that travels with the content wherever it goes.
-
How does it work? Que provides a simple API to create these manifests and sign them to your assets. You define the provenance information, and our service handles the complex cryptography and embeds the credentials directly into the file. You can then verify these credentials later to confirm the asset's history.
Why Use the Que API?
While you could use a low-level C2PA library directly, Que abstracts away the complexity into a managed, cloud-native service.
- Managed & Scalable: We handle the secure key storage, certificate management, and cryptographic operations in a highly available environment.
- Memory-Efficient: Our streaming architecture is designed for large files enabling efficient handling of high-resolution video and images.
- Simple Integration: With our official SDKs and straightforward REST API, you can integrate content provenance into your application in minutes, not weeks.
