Because A Human Made It

Why Artefakt
Trust
Proof it’s real
Every contributor is a verified, accountable person. Every image is C2PA-signed and permanently recorded — provenance anyone can check, not a claim you have to take our word for.
Convenience
One place, not ten bills
Delivery, your own site, prints, licensing, backup, enforcement — the subscriptions you’re already paying for elsewhere, built into where your archive already lives. Cancel the rest.
Legacy
It outlives you
A permanent Arweave record and real backups mean your work survives a platform shutdown, a company folding, or you no longer being here to maintain it.
From the archive
The tools, built in
Delivery, your own site, prints, licensing, backup, enforcement, video, captioning, a publication readers subscribe to — replacing the subscriptions below, one by one.
Your own website & publication page
Import your existing site and domain from almost anywhere. Choose from 30+ templates, or let AI design one for you — then publish a collection with one click.
Client delivery
Send finished work with a branded link and expiry. Replaces WeTransfer, kept inside your archive.
Live Rooms, classrooms & more
Video conferencing built in — meet a client one-on-one, run a live classroom, or present to a room of up to five hundred. No separate Zoom account needed.
Licensing & prints
License your work with simple, clear rights, and sell museum-grade prints — at prices you set.
Copyright filing & enforcement
Formal copyright registration on every image, plus enforcement tools — when your work is taken, you have standing to recover for it.
Protection & provenance
Invisible watermarking, scrape protection, and a permanent Arweave record that outlives any platform.
Video Showcase
Cancel Vimeo — showcase, publish, and deliver film at full resolution, with no file-size limit, on your own player and domain.
AI captioning & keywording
Captions, dates, places, and keywords written for you — your archive falls into order on its own.
Publish direct to your audience
Readers subscribe directly to you — no Patreon in between. You own the relationship and the subscriber list.
For human storytellers
Your work, protected and yours.
Photographers, filmmakers — and soon, musicians. The people recording and keeping our human history.
Protect
Copyright registration, C2PA signing, and permanent provenance — proof it’s yours, made by a human.
Publish
Your own page, your own audience, your own domain — and your work goes public through The Artefakt, the network’s publication.
Monetize
Licensing and prints with clear rights. You earn when your work earns, everywhere it appears.
For everyone who looks
Know what you’re looking at.
Find work you can trust — and license it simply, from the person who made it.
Verified makers
Every contributor is a real person, personally reviewed and invited. No anonymous accounts, no bots, no generated fakes.
Provenance you can check
See who made each image, where, and when — and open its provenance certificate, recorded permanently on Arweave.
No algorithm, no noise
A quiet, human archive. No feed games, no ads, no engagement bait — just the work.
A network built for the people who make the real thing.
Real photographs and real films, made by people who were there. Bring your work home, or explore the archive.
