Proofline Experimental

What Proofline is for

About Proofline

Proofline is being built for moments when losing the record could matter. It helps preserve end-to-end encrypted evidence as events unfold, while giving trusted contacts controlled access when it matters.

Why it exists

Some moments are hard to reconstruct later: an unsafe situation, an important interaction, a missed check-in, damage, harassment, threats, or a dispute. Proofline is meant to help preserve a private record while events are still unfolding.

The goal is not to turn every record into an emergency. The goal is to help a person keep evidence protected, decide who should see it, and avoid depending on a single phone as the only copy.

Use cases

More than emergencies

Proofline is being designed for incident capture, safety checks, interaction records, and evidence notes. Those labels should help explain why a record exists; they should not silently trigger escalation or sharing.
Evidence

Context where available

Future clients may preserve audio, video, location, timestamps, notes, check-ins, photos, and supporting context where platform permissions and user choices allow.
Privacy

Encrypted by design

Sensitive material should be encrypted before Proofline receives it. Proofline itself should not be able to read the private contents of a record.
Access

Controlled sharing

Trusted contacts may be given controlled access when it matters. That access should be explicit, bounded, and separate from emergency dispatch or automatic response.

What it is not

  • Proofline is not production-ready.
  • Proofline is not emergency dispatch.
  • Proofline does not guarantee real-time review or response.
  • Proofline does not replace calling emergency services when immediate help is needed.
  • Production iOS and Android capture clients are not available today.
  • Trusted-contact notifications, live context sharing, hosted accounts, billing, and decryption workflows are not production features today.
