Qples is a digital promotions platform that specializes in the creation, distribution, and validation of digital coupons for Consumer Packaged Goods (CPG) brands and retailers. The platform provides an end-to-end solution for delivering targeted offers to consumers through various channels, including mobile wallets and print-at-home formats.

‍

It’s goal is to address long-standing challenges in the coupon industry, most notably fraud and the lack of real-time validation through its integration with the Hedera blockchain network. By leveraging the Hedera Consensus Service (HCS), Qples creates a verifiable and immutable record for each digital coupon it issues. When a coupon is created, its unique data is hashed and submitted to the Hedera public ledger, generating a "proof of state" with a secure, tamper-proof timestamp.

‍

This on-chain verification allows for real-time authentication at the point of sale, effectively preventing fraudulent redemptions and unauthorized duplication through the creation of a universal, single-use digital asset. Its integration with the Hedera blockchain network enables Qples to offer brands a highly secure, transparent, and data-rich promotions solution.

Capture, by Numbers Protocol, is a Web3 camera application designed to combat digital fraud and establish verifiable provenance for photos and videos. It functions as the primary creation tool for the Numbers Protocol network, allowing users to generate digital media that is authentic, traceable, and secure from the moment of creation. The app is targeted at content creators, photographers, journalists, and anyone concerned with the integrity and ownership of their digital work in an age of AI-driven misinformation.

‍

When a user takes a photo or records a video with the Capture App, it automatically embeds the content with rich, tamper-proof metadata. This includes critical information such as the creator's identity, a secure timestamp, and geolocation data. This entire package is then registered on a blockchain, creating an immutable "birth certificate" for the asset. This process adheres to the C2PA (Coalition for Content Provenance and Authenticity) standard, ensuring a high degree of trust.

‍

This "Capture-secured" content provides a clear and verifiable history that travels with the asset, allowing anyone to confirm its origin and view any subsequent edits. Furthermore, the app provides a seamless, one-click process for users to mint their verified content as non-fungible tokens (NFTs) on various blockchains.
