Use case · Authenticate

Prove every item is the real thing.

Give each physical product its own unforgeable identity. Customers and inspectors scan to confirm it's genuine — and you see every scan, so counterfeits and grey-market diversion surface on their own. This is the anti-counterfeiting use case, built on per-code identity.

The problem it solves
A QR that points everyone at the same page can't prove anything.

Most QR codes are a shared link — copy the sticker and the copy works exactly like the original. Authentication needs the opposite: every single unit carries a distinct, unforgeable code with its own history. Scan it, and you learn whether this specific item is genuine, whether it's been scanned before, and where.

What you can do with it
From a genuine-or-not check to full traceability.

Instant genuine check

Anyone scans and sees a clear authentic / not-recognised result on a branded page — no app.

🔑

Per-item identity

Every unit has its own code and its own scan history — not a link shared across a batch.

🕵️

First-scan claim

The first genuine scan can be claimed — later scans of a cloned code stand out immediately.

🚨

Clone & diversion alerts

Impossible-travel and duplicate-scan signals flag counterfeits and grey-market movement.

🔁

Recall & status control

Flip a code — or a whole batch — to recalled or revoked, and every future scan reflects it.

🔗

Custody chain

Follow where each item was scanned across its journey, from factory to shelf to customer.

Make it uncopyable
Pair it with a label that's hard to fake.

Authentication works on any QR code — but for high-value goods, the code is only as strong as the label carrying it. Our tamper-evident secure labels add a physical anti-copy layer, so the genuine code can't simply be reprinted onto a fake.
