ABOUT US

The Global Trust Layer for all digital assets.

At OpenOrigins, we believe you need to be able to trust what you see on the Internet. We give you the tools to find out whether you’re seeing a deepfake or something trustworthy.

We think that the lack of a Trust infrastructure is standing in the way of fruitful conversations and of enterprise security. We are developing cutting edge tools across cryptography, distributed systems, microservers and trusted execution environments to build the OpenOrigins Global Trust Layer and help you track and trust the provenance of your digital assets.
