PageProof releases Smart Check: Content Credentials (CR), helping reviewers identify and verify authentic content credentials on creative assets.
PageProof, the industry-leading online proofing platform for enterprises, creative agencies, and marketing teams, is excited to announce the launch of Smart Check: Content Credentials (CR). This new feature leverages the Coalition for Content Provenance and Authenticity (C2PA) framework to help reviewers verify the authenticity of content, including identifying content generated by Artificial Intelligence (AI).
The C2PA framework unites Adobe’s Content Authenticity Initiative (CAI), focused on providing digital media context and history, with Project Origin, a Microsoft and BBC-led effort to counter disinformation in the digital news space.

PageProof’s Smart Check: CR analyzes imagery and PDFs to display detected content authenticity credentials – a crucial step toward promoting transparency and trust. Smart Check: CR complements existing Smart Check features such as fonts, colors, color profile, linked asset analysis – offering immense value to marketing and creative teams working with digital assets.
“We are proud to be a member of the Content Authenticity Initiative ecosystem and to be the first online proofing platform to offer content credential checks on creative assets.”
