The Content Authenticity Initiative (CAI) is a cross-industry community founded in 2019 by Adobe, The New York Times, and Twitter to combat digital misinformation and provide a verifiable layer of trust for online content. With a rapidly growing membership of over 4,000, the CAI brings together technology companies, media organizations, and civil society to develop open-source tools and standards that promote transparency and give creators credit for their work.
The primary service of the CAI is the development and promotion of Content Credentials, an open-source technology that functions like a "nutrition label" for digital media. This system allows creators to attach secure, tamper-evident metadata to their content, creating a verifiable record of its origin, authorship, and edit history. This provenance data is cryptographically signed and remains with the content as it is shared and modified. The technical specifications for Content Credentials are developed by the Coalition for Content Provenance and Authenticity (C2PA), a standards development organization co-founded by Adobe.
