When any image can be generated in seconds, a real photograph needs proof. Web3.photos is about protecting the work and the people who make it.

What we cover

  • Provenance: content credentials that record where an image came from and how it was edited.
  • Ownership: licensing, onchain records and getting paid when your work travels.
  • AI, responsibly: tools that help photographers without replacing them.

Our promise

Every photograph is a moment someone was there for. We cover the technology that keeps that true.

AI can generate realistic images in seconds. A real photograph increasingly needs evidence of where and how it was made.

Synthetic image

C2PA is an open standard that attaches a signed record to an image showing who made it and how it was edited. Some cameras and editing apps can add it.

C2PA

Cameras store details such as date and settings inside the file. Metadata is easy to strip or change, which is why signed credentials matter.

EXIF

A license says how others may use your photo. Clear terms make it easier to get paid and to act when a photo is used without permission.

License

An NFT records a token tied to a work on a blockchain. It can prove a sale or edition, but it does not transfer copyright unless a contract says so.

NFT

AI editing can remove objects or extend a frame. Disclose heavy edits, especially in news or documentary work.
