Use case · IP & trademark infringement

Certify intellectual property and trademark infringement online

Infringing pages are most often taken down the moment a notice arrives — making the original capture critical. Use a certified, timestamped record of the infringement before sending a DMCA, cease and desist, or filing suit.

Why a screenshot is not enough.

IP claims require proof of publication, time, and ownership of the original. Screenshots establish none of these to a forensic standard.

Infringing pages disappear fastOnce a takedown notice arrives, the page is gone and your screenshot has no source.
Marketplace listings change dailyPrice, photos, seller — all editable. A screenshot lacks the URL binding.
Originals need provenance tooWithout a certified, dated version of your original work, infringement is harder to plead.
Counsel needs hash-bound evidenceIP litigation favours cryptographically bound, time-anchored exhibits.

IP-evidence questions, answered directly.

How do I prove a competitor copied our content online?

Open a Website certificate at /certificates/new and submit the URL of the infringing page. The capture records the page, the resolved URL, and a qualified RFC 3161 timestamp — the foundation for a cease and desist letter or DMCA notice.

What evidence is needed for a DMCA takedown?

Most platforms require the infringing URL and a description of the original work. A certified capture of both the infringing page and a File certificate of the original work creates a cleaner submission and a defensible record if the takedown is contested.

Can I certify a counterfeit product listing?

Yes. Certify the marketplace listing URL via a Website certificate, and use a Browser Session to record adding it to a cart if you need to demonstrate availability and pricing context.

How do I show my original work pre-dates the infringement?

File-certify the original at the earliest possible date. The qualified timestamp on your File certificate is your priority anchor.

Is this legal advice?

No. This service creates technical evidence artifacts. Legal admissibility depends on jurisdiction and circumstances. Consult qualified legal counsel for advice specific to your situation.

Ready to certify?

Start with the infringing page before the seller is alerted. Then file-certify your original work to lock priority.
