proof that travels with the piece — not a paper coa

On resale, a paper certificate proves almost nothing — it's easy to copy, lose, or separate from the item. Give each piece a digital record the next owner can hold and check from their phone.

a real example — what your buyer sees when they scan

1

register your piece

Add the item — title, maker, materials, photos. Each piece (and each edition) gets its own unique tag.

2

give it its tag & certificate

authe creates a unique tag plus a digital certificate of ownership. Attach the tag; the certificate stays with the piece's record.

it passes to the next owner

When the piece sells, its record and certificate can transfer to the new owner — who scans to see the full history.

the buyer's moment

what the next owner sees

Everything you record lands on the next owner. They scan, see ✓ verified, and read the piece's history — who made it, where it's been, who's owned it. That continuity is what a paper certificate can never give them — and what protects the piece's value on every resale.

made for collectibles makers & resellers

You make or resell limited-run pieces — sneakers, watches, cards, art — where the value lives in provenance. The credible options are enterprise contracts, dedicated scanning hardware, or per-item fees that only make sense for five-figure lots. authe gives each piece a transferable record, self-serve, for cents.
