The first digital registry that cryptographically binds a physical artwork to its provenance record. Blockchain-anchored. Fraud-proof. Built for institutions.
The Problem
Provenance records are scattered across galleries, auction houses, and private archives. Paper certificates can be forged. No system proves that a document belongs to this specific physical object.
Bloomberg exists for finance. DUNS for companies. Nothing exists for art at the same level of institutional rigour.
The Solution
A permanent, blockchain-anchored digital identity for every artwork. Created by credentialed curators. Verified by cryptographic proof.
How It Works
A credentialed gallery or museum creates the artwork record with provenance data, images, and metadata.
Our computer vision engine scans the physical artwork and generates a unique photographic fingerprint.
The passport hash is written to Hyperledger Fabric. Immutable, timestamped, independently verifiable.
The artwork receives its permanent digital identity. Scannable, shareable, trusted by institutions worldwide.
The Differentiator
Three layers of authentication that bind a digital record to a physical object. No other system does this.
A computer vision algorithm generates a unique hash from the artwork's surface texture and brushwork. A copy produces a different hash. Irreplicable.
A tamper-evident NFC chip generates a unique crypto signature on every scan. Remove the tag, the circuit breaks permanently. Impossible to clone.
Multispectral imaging and pigment analysis by accredited labs. Results hashed and anchored to blockchain. Physically impossible to replicate.
Who It's For
Register artworks as credentialed Curators. Build a permanent, verifiable provenance record for every work in your collection. Strengthen your institutional authority.
Access structured, machine-readable passport data via API. Blockchain-verified provenance for lending decisions and underwriting. Due diligence in seconds, not weeks.
A passport that travels with the artwork forever. Share it with lenders, insurers, and auction houses. Prove authenticity and ownership with a single scan.

Under the Hood
3-node permissioned ledger with dual-control endorsement policy. No single party can modify a record unilaterally. Every passport mutation is cryptographically signed, timestamped, and independently verifiable.
Hybrid pHash + DINOv2 deep learning pipeline. Generates a unique 1.5KB fingerprint per artwork from surface texture analysis.
Personal data in encrypted Data Vault. Blockchain stores only hashes. Right to erasure built in from day one.
Machine-readable data in international museum standards. Integrates with museum systems and Bloomberg terminals.
Military-grade NFC chips with per-scan cryptographic rotation. Tamper-evident circuit. Impossible to clone.
Third-party blockchain audit node. SOC 2 Type I certification in Year 1. Penetration tested before launch.
MIRAS.ART is in active development. We are assembling our founding curator network. Be among the first institutions to register.
No commitment. We'll reach out when onboarding begins.
