Requests

Request a checked original

Sometimes the photograph you need to check belongs to someone else. Send them a link. They upload the camera original and the delivered image without an account, and the record lands in your account.

Who sends a request

Contest organizers

Shortlisted entrants upload the submitted image and its RAW file to your link. Each entry gets a record in your account before the jury meets.

Law firms and their clients

A firm that needs a checked exhibit from a photographer sends the link. The photographer uploads the exhibit with its RAW. The record shows the check date and the comparison, and it states its limits.

Agents and brokerages

Ask your listing photographer for the checked originals behind altered images. The link saves the chain of emails, and the record page is what a buyer opens.

Buyers and tenants

Ask a private seller or a landlord for one checked original before you pay. The page they open shows your name. A refusal proves nothing by itself.

How it works

01

Create a request

Write what you are asking for and choose an end date. You can cap the number of uploads. You get a link and a QR code.

02

They upload

The other person opens the link, sees who is asking and what for, and uploads the camera original and the delivered image. They need no account and no app.

03

You get the record

The check runs on your plan. The record appears in your account, and, if you allow it, the uploader gets a link to the same page.

What the record establishes

Given a camera original, the check answers three questions about the pair of files.

  1. Whether the image was produced by a camera, and which.
  2. Whether the delivered image corresponds to the camera original within the method's tolerance.
  3. Whether the delivered image was altered in ways the method detects.

What it does not establish

It does not establish that the scene is truthful, who held the camera, or that the photograph shows what you asked for. Your subject line is your own words and is labelled as such on the record. The record describes the two files. It does not confirm the reason for the request.

What it costs

Each accepted upload counts as one verification on your plan, the same as an upload of your own. The person uploading pays nothing. The free plan includes five verifications a month, enough for one sale or a small shortlist.

What happens to their files

The files are used for this check only, under your account, on servers in the European Union. The camera original is not shown on any page. You decide how long the record is kept, and the upload page tells the other person exactly that. Details are in the privacy policy.
