100% French start-up · PCAP protocol

Create your own proof that counts in court.

Your files are captured, encrypted, sealed and stored for life. They stay accessible on your own, even without us.

BlockProve doesn't just send a fingerprint of your file to the blockchain: it writes the file itself, encrypted and intact, ready to show a judge ten years from now or tomorrow.

AES-256 encryption on your device, a post-quantum signature, an eIDAS qualified timestamp and permanent storage on the Arweave blockchain. All from your phone or computer.

No subscription to keep your proofs. Free verification, for life.

Qualified timestamp • EU Regulation 910/2014 • ★★★★★★★★★★★★ eIDAS Qualified

Every proof is dated by an eIDAS qualified trust service provider. Its date is presumed accurate across the European Union.

Built on standards recognised by courts and governments. And on our own protocol.

The problem

Why a simple photo carries almost no weight in court

In France, evidence is free: you can submit a photo. But the judge alone weighs it, and one sentence is enough to undermine it: “it’s been edited”.

An ordinary photo

  • Its date can be changed in a few clicks.
  • It can be edited without any visible trace.
  • Nothing proves you took it, or when.
  • It disappears with your phone or your cloud.

Your word against theirs.

A BlockProve proof

  • Date certified by an eIDAS qualified timestamp.
  • Sealed content: the slightest edit is detected.
  • Capture attested by your phone’s security chip.
  • Full file kept for life on the blockchain.

Verifiable by anyone, without us.

Our technology

PCAP: the proof protocol we created

We did not just assemble existing building blocks. We designed PCAP (Proof Context & Attestation Protocol), our own protocol, so that a proof depends on no server. Not even ours.

  1. 1

    Captured

    The photo, video or sound is taken in the app. Your phone’s security chip attests that the capture is genuine.

  2. 2

    Encrypted

    The file is AES-256 encrypted on your device before anything is sent. No one can read it, not even us.

  3. 3

    Sealed

    A post-quantum signature and an eIDAS qualified timestamp lock its content and date.

  4. 4

    Stored for life

    The full file is written to the Arweave blockchain. It stays accessible on your own, even if BlockProve disappears.

Public specification and open-source verifier: anyone can check a proof, with no account and without going through us.

Use cases

It doesn’t only happen to others

On the day of the dispute, it is too late to create evidence. It had to exist before.

Case law

A first in France: a court upholds evidence from the blockchain

On 20 March 2025, the Marseille Judicial Court heard a clothing copy case: the fashion house AZ Factory accused a wholesaler of selling copies of its “Love from Alber” designs.

May & Sept. 2021 The designs are timestamped on the blockchain, long before the copies appear.
Rights upheld The court relies on these timestamps to establish that the house owns the copyright.
€11,900 in damages, plus a sales ban and destruction of the copies.
“It is therefore established that AZ Factory is indeed vested with the copyright” (translated)
Marseille Judicial Court, 1st civil chamber, 20 March 2025 Read the ruling on Legalis

What BlockProve adds

In this case, only the fingerprint of the designs was on the blockchain, and a bailiff’s report was needed to link it to the files. With BlockProve, the file itself is kept, its date is certified by an eIDAS qualified timestamp, and anyone can verify the proof in seconds.
