ProofLedge is a local-first workstation for digital evidence: photos, videos, audio, documents and files you need to keep, check and explain later.
WHAT IT DOES
• Preserves: each file you pick is read once through the Android document picker into an in-app acquisition copy. The source document is never modified.
• Verifies: SHA-256 (plus MD5 and SHA-1 for interoperability) is computed while the file is read and again on the copy; the file is imported only if both match. Re-verify any time.
• Identifies: the real file type is read from the content (about 120 signatures), not from the file name, so a renamed or disguised file shows up as a mismatch.
• Reads metadata: EXIF and camera data, GPS (flagged as a privacy finding), PDF and Office document properties, XMP edit history, C2PA manifest presence, video and audio container details.
• Compares: two files side by side with hashes, metadata differences and similar-image candidates.
• Timeline: dates from metadata, file system and your own notes on one time axis, with the source of every entry.
• Audit log: every action is written to a hash-chained, append-only log you can verify.
• Reports and Case Packages: export an HTML/JSON report or a signed Case Package (Ed25519) that anyone can re-verify with ProofLedge.
HOW TO READ THE RESULTS
ProofLedge reports observations: match, mismatch, observed, or inconclusive. It does not declare a file genuine or forged and does not replace a qualified forensic examiner.
PRIVACY
• No account, no ads, no tracking SDKs.
• Your files and case data stay on the device and are excluded from cloud backup.
• The app works offline. The only network request is an optional license-revocation check you start yourself.
