Monolith provides a single‑call API that generates C2PA‑compliant content credentials and anchors them on a blockchain, allowing any file type to be signed without uploading the file itself. By sending only a fingerprint, users receive a signed manifest with on‑chain proof, searchable metadata, and verification data while keeping the original content private. The service supports 27 formats and offers faster issuance, durable anchoring, and flexible licensing tools for creators and studios.

Problem
Content creators and enterprises struggle to prove authorship, licensing, and usage rights for digital assets because existing C2PA manifest generators require uploading full files, are slow, and lack searchable, immutable credentials.
Solution
Monolith offers an API that creates trusted C2PA manifests using only a content fingerprint, eliminating the need to upload original files. The service signs the hash, anchors the manifest on a blockchain for immutable verification, and returns a signed manifest URL in a single call. By supporting 27 file formats and providing perceptual hashing, Monolith delivers issuance that is 10–50× faster than competing solutions. The platform also indexes manifests, enabling reverse lookup of files by manifest data, and offers private, on‑chain content credentials for creators, studios, and enterprises.
Target Audience
Primary customers are independent artists, studios, and enterprise teams that need scalable, verifiable provenance for digital media, AI models, and other digital assets.
