AI-generated deception
Photorealistic synthetic images can now imitate people, places, and events with alarming credibility. In high-trust contexts, that creates both reputational and practical risk.
Authenticity, made practical
Verify your moment
Realz is built for a world where AI-generated images, deepfakes, deceptive edits, and aggressive social media filters make visual trust harder than ever. It helps prove that a photo was captured as it happened.
When an image is taken inside the Realz app, a public cryptographic proof can be created and made available for independent verification. That makes it possible to show not just the image itself, but that the image has not been tampered with after capture.

Why this matters
A photo can be beautiful, persuasive, viral — and still be misleading. Realz is designed to help restore confidence in what people share.

The challenge
Trust in images is no longer automatic
Deepfakes, synthetic media, AI-assisted editing, beauty filters, and image manipulation are becoming more powerful, more accessible, and harder to detect. The result is simple: people increasingly need a better way to distinguish documentation from fabrication.
Edited reality
Even when an image starts as a real photo, heavy retouching, compositing, and filters can make it impossible to know what actually happened in the original moment.
Fraud and impersonation
As visual manipulation becomes cheaper and faster, scams, identity abuse, and misleading image-based claims become easier to execute at scale.
The Realz approach
Designed to support authenticity — not just appearance
Realz is not just another camera or photo-sharing experience. It is built around the idea that a meaningful image should be able to carry evidence of its integrity.
By combining capture inside the Realz app with a public verification flow, the platform gives users a practical way to demonstrate that an image has not been altered after it was taken.
Technical overview
Small details, important guarantees
Realz is intentionally simple to use, but the verification model is grounded in technical principles that are meant to be understandable, inspectable, and useful in practice.
Cryptographic proof
When a photo is captured in Realz, the system can generate a public cryptographic proof linked to that original capture event. This creates a stronger basis for integrity than visual appearance alone.
Publicly verifiable
Verification is designed to be public. That means other people can validate the proof through the Realz verification service, rather than relying only on private claims or screenshots of “trust me” indicators.
Captured in Realz
For this to work, the image must be taken directly in the Realz app. The proof is tied to the original capture flow, which is what makes later verification possible.
Use cases
Where authenticity matters most
Realz is relevant anywhere an image is meant to document something real — whether that is a person, a product, an event, or a moment that should be trusted as captured.
Journalism & field reporting
Support confidence that a published image reflects the original capture rather than an altered derivative.
Financial security
Get verifiable photos of items and events that must have high trust. Examples such as expenses from employees, or insurance claims that you need to verify.
Dating & social identity
Reduce uncertainty around heavily filtered or misleading profile imagery by enabling verifiable capture.
Events & experiences
Preserve moments with a stronger authenticity signal, especially when proof of originality matters later.
Professional documentation
Useful in contexts where image integrity contributes to credibility, reviewability, or evidentiary value.
Social sharing with trust
Make it easier to share real moments online without asking others to guess what is edited, filtered, or synthetic.
Availability
Realz is coming to mobile
The app is planned for both iPhone and Android. Store availability is still under development, but the platform direction is clear: simple onboarding, clear verification, and fast access to trusted capture.
