A RECORD OF HUMAN CREATION

A seal and public registry for human-made work.

Human Mark is a visible seal and public registry for human-made creative work. By registering a piece, creators create a time-stamped public record of authorship—establishing when the work existed and who made it.

While Human Mark is not a substitute for formal copyright registration, it helps establish initial authorship and provenance by creating documented proof that a work existed as human-made at a specific moment in time.

In an era where creative work is increasingly scraped, replicated, and fed into large language models without consent, Human Mark gives artists a way to clearly declare human authorship, anchor their work in the public record, and keep it from becoming indistinguishable in the age of AI.

Registry IDs look like HM-REG-2025-00127. You will be redirected to the official record for that ID.

Tip: If you scanned a QR code, you may already be on the correct record.
If the record details do not match the certificate (Registry ID, creator, title, date), treat the certification as invalid.

What a record includes

  • Registry ID and certification status (valid or revoked if applicable)
  • Creator name (or rights holder)
  • Work title and type (photo, song, book, video, film, etc.)
  • Certification date
  • Blockchain timestamp (hash-only proof via OpenTimestamps)
  • A short declaration confirming no generative AI was used to create the work itself
Privacy note: Human Mark does not sell, rent, distribute, or use submitted works or certification data to train AI models. Verification pages exist solely to authenticate certified human-made work.
