Join the Verifiable News Initiative!

Confirm Source. Restore Trust. Build Credibility.

In today’s fast-paced digital world, misinformation and fake news are spreading faster than ever across multiple platforms. With the rise of AI-generated content and deep fakes, it’s becoming increasingly difficult to trust the information we consume. That’s where the Verifiable News Initiative steps in—to bring back trust and credibility to media.​

Why Trust Matters

As a media outlet or content creator, your credibility is everything. The ability to prove authorship and the source of published information is key to retaining your audience and growing your audience. With the Verifiable News Initiative, we provide a solution that ensures your content can be trusted—verified and secure.

How the Verifiable News Initiative Works

Our initiative operates in two ways. First, by joining, you make a public commitment to restoring trust in the media and ensuring the credibility of the content we all produce and share. 

But if you’re ready to take it further, we also offer a powerful, practical solution. In partnership with Netis, we provide cutting-edge technology that integrates digital identities and verifiable credentials into your workflow. These tools empower content creators to:

PROVE AUTHORSHIP

Confirm who created the content and ensure it’s coming from a trusted source.

ISSUE VERIFIABLE CONTENT

Publish text, video, or audio in a format that can be instantly authenticated and therefore trusted by readers.

ENHANCE TRUST & TRANSPARENCY

Strengthen your audience’s trust by using technology that guarantees content transparency and credibility. 

Challenges in Today’s Media Landscape

Easy to fake, hard to verify

Information can be manipulated or falsified, making verification nearly impossible.

Declining trust in serious media

With anyone able to create content, trust in established media is eroding.

Manipulation of content with AI

Deep fakes, altered videos, and AI-generated content pose a growing threat to authenticity.

Spread of false information on social media

Unchecked sharing of misinformation is accelerating.

Difficulty in protecting authorship

Proving content ownership and issuance is  becoming a challenge.
