Prove Your Sky Is Real

Vault the original, hash it, and show a clear trust label on every capture you publish.

Original-file vaulting + SHA-256 + rules-based trust labels — no overclaiming

Why now

Seeing stopped being believing

The most interesting moment in the sky in a generation is colliding with the easiest moment ever to fake one. SkyVault is the layer that tells them apart.

Synthetic media since 2023

AI-generated UFO and space clips now flood every feed. By industry estimates deepfakes have multiplied more than tenfold — and casual inspection no longer tells real from rendered.

Mainstream

UAP is on the record

NASA studies, the Pentagon's AARO, and Congressional hearings put unidentified anomalous phenomena into serious public view — raising the stakes for what counts as real.

At capture

The only durable proof

After-the-fact detectors miss newly generated fakes. Provenance captured at the source — hashed and recorded the moment you publish — is the proof that holds up.

The verifiable record is the scarce asset. SkyVault vaults your capture unedited, fingerprints it, and stamps its provenance the moment you publish — so what's real can be proven, not just claimed.

What's broken

In a deepfake era, unverified sky media is getting harder to trust

01

Anyone can repost or fake your captures with no proof of origin

02

Editors and educators can't tell processed from fabricated

03

Your best work has no record of how it was actually made

How SkyVault works

Verifiable provenance for every sky capture you share

Vault the original, prove how it was made, and build a record that earns trust — and income — one observatory profile, end to end.

Vault the original

The source file, stored untouched

Upload an original capture and SkyVault preserves the source server-side — never overwritten. It's the canonical record everything else is measured against.

Prove provenance

A SHA-256 fingerprint at capture time

We hash the file, read its metadata, and let you declare every processing and AI step — then assign a rules-based trust label. Capture-time proof, not after-the-fact guesswork.

Build a record

A track record people can cite

Every verified capture joins your public, tamper-evident observatory — and you can monetize with drops, subscriptions, and licensing while keeping ownership.

Credibility compounds

Every verified capture makes you a more trusted source

A public, tamper-evident track record is something a render can never have. Over time, the people who consistently publish verified sky media become the primary sources others cite.

Astrophotographers

Smart-telescope owners and deep-sky imagers who want credit and credibility for the work they already do.

UAP researchers & citizen scientists

Document unexplained aerial phenomena with verifiable provenance — and a record reviewers can actually trust.

Journalists & newsrooms

Source verified sky-event visuals — meteors, launches, auroras, anomalies — with provenance you can cite.

Documentary & educators

License real, rights-clear footage with a clear chain of custody, not a screenshot of unknown origin.

Honest by design

One clear trust label, never an overclaim

Every public capture leads with a single, plain-language trust label — and an expandable record showing exactly what it's based on. SkyVault distinguishes what you declared, what the system extracted, and what a reviewer confirmed, so viewers can judge for themselves.

User-declared

What the creator states about processing and AI involvement, on the record.

System-extracted

Hash and metadata SkyVault reads directly from the original file.

Admin-reviewed

An optional reviewer pass that can confirm, flag, or override a label.

Unexplained isn't extraterrestrial. SkyVault proves where a file came from and how it was made — not what it is. NASA has found no evidence that UAP are extraterrestrial; we verify provenance, not phenomena.

Trust labels are rules-based and informational — they describe the record SkyVault holds, not a legal determination.
