Lantern is in active development. Some features may change. Privacy Policy

A permanent record of your work, even after a screenshot.

Lantern is a public registry where digital artists prove authorship. When someone reposts your work, anyone can verify who made it, including versions that have been cropped, resized, or re-uploaded.

How it works

Register once. Verified forever.

Lantern stores a permanent record tied to the image itself, not to a file's metadata. That means verification survives screenshots, reposts, and recompressions.

01

Register

Upload your work to Lantern. We take a fingerprint of the image and store it in a public registry along with your name and platform links.

02

Share normally

Post your work wherever you normally would. Twitter, Instagram, Pixiv, your site. No watermarks or file changes required.

03

Anyone can verify

When someone sees your image elsewhere (cropped, reposted, screenshotted), they can check Lantern and see that you registered it first.

What makes it different

Built for how the internet actually works.

Survives screenshots and reposts

Perceptual matching recognizes your work even when it's been cropped, resized, compressed, or recompressed.

No file changes, no watermarks

Your work stays exactly as you made it. The record lives outside the file, in a public registry.

Permanent and independent

The registry is public and verifiable by anyone. It's not locked to a company, app, or file format.
