SimpleProof API Documentation

Overview

With the SimpleProof API, you can:

• Verify Digital Documents: Timestamp and validate documents on the Bitcoin blockchain to ensure their integrity.
• Ensure Data Integrity: Detect any alterations to documents by verifying them against their blockchain timestamp.
• Access Verification Proofs: Retrieve cryptographic proofs for compliance, auditing, or transparency purposes.

Our technology has been trusted in critical processes, including the 2023 elections in Guatemala and the 2024 United States electoral college voting, enhancing transparency and trust in digital voting systems.

Getting Started
