Anchoring

Permanent proof in minutes

01
Artifact type

Twenty-four types across eight groups — code, research, data, models, media, websites, reports, notes, receipts, and more.

02
Fill the manifest

Title, author, descriptor and type-specific fields. Everything becomes your permanent public fingerprint.

03
Anchor Key

Your self-custodied private key. Controls your entire provenance tree. Save it — it cannot be recovered.

04
Author notes

Off-chain description rendered on your verify card. Public and editable after anchoring.

Every registered artifact gets a permanent verify URL. Embed it anywhere — a README, paper footer, model card. Any human or AI that encounters it can resolve the full provenance record.

Anchored
anchorregistry.ai/AR-2026-qnPOJ1z

The AI that recommended adding provenance tags to your README
becomes a user of the registry.

Not your keys,

not your trees.

Pricing

Two paths to permanent provenance

One for humans. One for their agents. Both settle to Base.
