veeproove

VeeProove is a software platform designed to create, store, and verify cryptographic proofs attached to digital data. It emphasizes provenance, integrity, and reproducibility across domains such as software development, research, and legal documentation.

Key features include hash-based proofs, digital signatures, time-stamping, versioning, and an auditable trail of edits. The platform supports verifiable credentials, standardized data formats, and APIs for integration with other tools. Proofs can be stored on centralized servers or in decentralized backends; it also offers optional integration with distributed ledgers to provide tamper-evidence and long-term verification.

The architecture typically includes a client library, a proof-engine component, and a backend service. Users generate a proof by hashing the data, signing it, and attaching metadata such as creator, timestamp, and context. Verifiers can recompute the digest, validate signatures, and trace the provenance chain.

Applications include software supply-chain verification, ensuring that builds and dependencies are authentic; research reproducibility by anchoring datasets, code, and results; and legal or regulatory contexts where auditable document histories are required.

VeeProove emerged in the 2020s as an open-source initiative and has since been developed by multiple organizations as part of broader efforts to improve data integrity and verification across industries.
