Witnis
Witnis provides infrastructure for verifiable communications, enabling organizations to register official content at the moment of publication so anyone can verify that a copy matches the original source. The platform creates tamper-proof authenticity proofs that travel with content across websites, media, and AI systems, with narrative intelligence capabilities that track how stories spread and change. It is currently in pilot with a large Swedish public organization and integrates with existing CMS systems.

Problem
As AI-generated content becomes increasingly prevalent, the ability to distinguish authentic official communications from synthetic or manipulated content is eroding. When information leaves official channels, it is cited, summarized, screenshotted, and spread via media, social platforms, and AI tools, while convincing but misleading versions of trusted information can be created in seconds. This undermines trust in digital information and creates vulnerabilities for individuals and organizations who rely on the integrity of official messages.
Solution
Witnis provides infrastructure for verifiable communications, enabling official information to be verified against its original source. The platform registers what an organization published at the exact moment of publication, creating a tamper-proof authenticity proof linked to the original source. Citizens, journalists, and AI systems can then compare any copy against that registration in seconds. The authenticity proof travels with the content through websites, media, partners, and AI systems, and Witnis provides early signals when distorted versions of communications begin to spread. The platform is purpose-built for the AI era, creating a technical foundation that authenticates digital communications and confirms their origin without training or modifying AI models.
Target Audience
Primary users are government agencies, public organizations, and companies where trust in official communication is critical, as well as citizens, journalists, and AI systems that need to verify the authenticity of information they receive.
