The Challenge

Web content is ephemeral. Articles are edited or deleted. Social media posts vanish. Entire websites disappear. Even when content survives, proving what it looked like at a specific moment is difficult — and traditional screenshots can be easily manipulated, especially with modern AI tools.

How do we preserve trustworthy proof of online content before it changes or disappears?

Our Solution: A Three-Layer Verification System

📸 1. The Screenshot

When you submit a URL to ScreeNFT Server, the page is captured using an automated Chromium browser environment — the same core technology used by modern web browsers, optimised for consistent capture.

You review the screenshot before minting. Once confirmed, the image is stored on decentralised permanent storage and cryptographically linked to the blockchain. The file is distributed across a decentralised network, making silent alteration or deletion practically infeasible.

📄 2. The Certificate: Provenance and Context

A screenshot alone is not sufficient to establish authenticity.
To become reliable evidence, it must be accompanied by verifiable context.

For every capture, ScreeNFT Server automatically generates a structured certificate of authenticity that records:

• When the capture occurred (UTC timestamp)

• What was captured (original and final URL, page title, language, encoding)

• How it was captured (automated headless browser, full-page method)

• Technical response data (HTTP status, redirects, content type)

• Environment details (browser version, operating system, platform, viewport)

• Asset integrity (cryptographic hash of the screenshot, dimensions)

• Permanent storage reference (Arweave transaction ID and URL)

This information creates a documented provenance record describing the exact conditions under which the screenshot was produced.

The certificate is stored immutably alongside the image in a machine-readable format and is designed to remain verifiable long after the original content has changed or disappeared.

🔐 3. The NFT: Proof of Ownership and Origin

The NFT binds everything together and establishes ownership.

It provides:

• Permanent linking — immutable references to both the screenshot and its certificate

• Proof of origin — smart-contract address, blockchain timestamp, and unique identifier

• User ownership — the NFT is minted directly to your wallet, not held by ScreeNFT

Unlike content on social platforms, ownership is not dependent on our servers or ongoing permission. The record can be verified independently at any time.

Our controlled minting process ensures that NFTs are only created through an authenticated capture flow, preserving the integrity of the entire system.

Why This Matters

Every day, information disappears from the internet. Statements are deleted. Pages are rewritten. Context is lost.

ScreeNFT gives individuals a way to preserve digital history in a form that is:

• Verifiable

• Durable

• Independently auditable

Whether you are a journalist documenting sources, an investigator preserving evidence, an activist exposing wrongdoing, or someone archiving an important moment — ScreeNFT helps turn fragile screenshots into lasting records.
