01 / audit trail

Change one byte and the chain breaks.

Sealing a PDF starts a hash chain: every edit records the fingerprint of the document before it. Alter anything — a word, a date, a single byte — and every later link stops matching. The signature is Ed25519, computed on your machine.

  • Tampering isn't prevented — it's made evident. That's what an audit needs.
  • The trail lives inside the document. No server holds the truth for you.
  • Export a signed verification report when someone needs it on paper.

Anyone can verify a sealed document. Free. Forever.

Receiving a sealed PDF costs nothing to check — no VeriPDF license, no account. You only ever pay to create and seal documents, never to prove one is intact.

architecture

Nothing ever touches a cloud

Rendering, OCR, sealing, verification — every operation runs on your CPU. There is no upload code path to misconfigure.

05 / architecture

Local-first is a guarantee, not a setting

VeriPDF is a single native Rust binary. Pages render straight to the GPU — no Electron, no WebView, no browser embedded in your document tool.

Files move between your machines over the LAN, directly. License checks run on a 7-day cadence with a 30-day offline grace period — and they're the only network calls in the product. Your documents have no route off your device.
