How it works

Four steps. No new infrastructure on your side. Direct API integration available for embedding into existing workflows.

01 — Capture

No photos yet
Signed at the shutter
The claimant photographs using our free camera app. A cryptographic watermark is embedded invisibly into the JPEG at the exact moment of capture, before it ever leaves the phone.

iMessage
Sent through any channel
The photo travels however it normally would — iMessage, WhatsApp, email, claim portal, courier app. The watermark is in the pixels. JPEG recompression doesn't remove it.
03 — Verify

Verdict + heatmap
Upload to app.usebitfrost.com. Instant verdict and a pixel-level heatmap showing exactly which regions were altered — if any. An account is required to verify; the embed step (capture) is always free.

See through the noise
Watermark embedding and JPEG re-encoding introduce structured artefacts that obscure fine detail. Bitfrost's proprietary reconstruction pipeline identifies and suppresses these signal distortions, recovering spatial fidelity that standard viewers discard.

High-resolution 4K imagery and video frames carry substantially more spatial data than standard uploads, demanding extended pipeline capacity. Bitfrost's professional tier extends reconstruction to full-resolution stills and multi-frame sequences, restoring fine detail across both photography and motion media. Coming soon.

Who it's for

Built for anyone who receives a photo as evidence

If a payment, refund, or settlement depends on trusting an image you didn't take, Bitfrost closes that gap.

P&C Insurance
~$45B paid out in fraudulent P&C claims in the US alone each year
When the claim image arrives, you know whether it's the original capture or has been touched. AI inpainting, severity inflation, region swaps, all detected and localised.
E-commerce & Retail
$103B lost to fraudulent returns & claims by US retailers in 2024
Customers photograph the product with the Bitfrost app before returning it. You instantly know whether the damage shown is genuine or was added after the photo was taken.
Cargo & Logistics
Cargo crime costs businesses over €8.2B per year in Europe alone
TAPA EMEA / European Parliament · Trans.info, 2025
Drivers sign off with a tamper-evident photo. Disputes about damage that "appeared after delivery" are resolved with a single upload. The watermark says when and what the camera saw.
Warranty & After-sales
~$25B lost to warranty fraud globally each year
Paul Curwell / AGMA & PwC · "The $25B Question", 2025
Customers report defects with Bitfrost-signed photos. Your support team verifies authenticity before dispatching replacements, cutting abuse of warranty programmes at the first step.
Why not something else

Frictionless by design

Other approaches break on the first hop. Bitfrost was built around how images actually travel.

vs. C2PA / Content Credentials
Metadata-based. Stripped by WhatsApp, email, and every portal upload. Bitfrost embeds in pixels so the watermark is part of the image, not attached to it.
vs. Truepic
Requires a proprietary SDK, a cloud database lookup to verify, and per-image server costs passed on to you. Bitfrost is self-contained: verification reads the image itself, no lookup required. The capture app is always free for end users, which means zero friction getting claimants to adopt it.
vs. post-hoc forensics
Reactive analysis can say "something looks wrong." Bitfrost proves authenticity at source and, when it can't, tells you precisely where tampering occurred.

Set up a pilot

We onboard organisations directly. Tell us your use case and we'll set up a trial environment, walk you through integration, and size the right plan for your volume.

Careers

We're hiring

We're a small but technically deep team. We care about getting the details right, both in the technology we build and in how we work with the organisations that depend on it.

Engineering
Applied Cryptography Engineer
The watermarking pipeline is the core of the product: embedding, survival through re-encoding, and the statistical verification layer that produces verdicts. You'll own and extend this, working at the intersection of signal processing, DCT-domain analysis, and applied cryptography. We care about correctness over speed, and about false-positive rates more than headline benchmarks.
Send your CV, a short cover letter, and your GitHub to recruitment@usebitfrost.com
Engineering
Customer Success Engineer
When an organisation integrates Bitfrost, the quality of that integration determines whether it actually catches fraud. You'll work directly with customers during onboarding and beyond: understanding their image pipeline, helping them configure the API correctly, and making sure the results they see reflect what really happened. Part engineering, part trusted advisor.
Send your CV, a short cover letter, and your GitHub to recruitment@usebitfrost.com
Commercial
Enterprise Account Executive
You'll work with insurers, logistics operators, and retailers who are serious about reducing photo fraud. These are considered purchases where the buyers are compliance leads, heads of claims, and operations directors. You understand their world well enough to have a real conversation, and you know that a well-scoped pilot matters more than a fast signature.
