AI Provenance Mark
A Creative Commons–style transparency mark for AI-assisted content. A small, recognizable badge paired with a QR code lets anyone instantly understand whether and how AI was used to create something.
Open Standard
Vendor-neutral and freely usable. No proprietary apps, no accounts, no tracking.
Web-Native
QR codes resolve to plain HTTPS pages. Works on every modern mobile device.
Static Hosting
No backend required. Designed to run on Cloudflare Pages, GitHub Pages, or any CDN.
How It Works
AIPM combines three elements: a stable visual mark, a QR code, and a human- and machine-readable provenance document. Together they disclose who or what created a piece of content and what role a human played.
- Create a provenance URL using the QR generator, filling in the model used, your role, and context.
- Download the QR code and embed it in or near your content — a document, image, presentation, or webpage.
- Anyone scanning the code is taken to a clear, human-readable disclosure page.
A Provenance URL looks like this
All metadata is encoded directly in URL query parameters — no database, no lookup, no server needed.
