Who we are:

Truepic is a Series B startup backed by Microsoft, Adobe, Sony and Hearst.  Our team is fully distributed which means we place a heavy focus on outcomes and value trust, transparency, and autonomy in the way we operate. Truepic provides two critical services for maintaining order and authenticity in the era of AI:  securing and verifying images at the point of capture with our Vision and Lens products, and creating transparency across the internet through the Sign and Display of digital content.

Not only is our technology proprietary but we’re building a strong community at the forefront of the image authenticity movement.  As founding members of the Coalition for Content Provenance and Authenticity (C2PA), we’re working alongside companies like Intel, Microsoft and Adobe to develop a set of technical standards for certifying the source and history of media content.  Our controlled capture technology is the world’s first C2PA compliant camera which sets a new standard for how we consume and accept images across the internet. We also created the world's first openly digital transparent Artificial Intelligence video to highlight the need for transparency within all digital content, including the Generative AI space.
