For publishers, newsrooms & agencies

Stop guessing.
Start verifying.

AI detection tools produce verdicts. Inkstain produces evidence. Give your editors a verification standard they can stand behind — and give your contributors a way to prove their process.

The problem

"A career ended in a single day. Based on a pirated scan. Of someone else's copy."

AI detection tools flag human writing as AI-generated at rates between 3% and 12%. Non-native English speakers are misclassified at rates exceeding 60%. Publishers are canceling contracts and killing careers based on statistical guesses. Inkstain gives you something better — a verified record of how the work was actually made.

How it works

Four steps from policy to proof.

01
Set your policy
Define what you require from contributors — Trail certificate, disclosure level, AI use policy. One setup. Applied to every submission.
02
Invite your contributors
Send contributors your invite link. They download the Inkstain app, create an account, and their Trail is automatically associated with your publication.
03
Contributors submit with their Trail
Every submission includes an Inkstain certificate — a signed record of how the piece was made. AI sessions, writing patterns, disclosure level, author's note.
04
You verify in seconds
Paste the verification hash from the certificate into your dashboard. Instantly see the full Trail summary. One click. No ambiguity.
