CoinVoice has recently learned that, according to (Fortune), the blockchain content verification platform OpenOrigins has completed a $4.5 million seed round of financing, led by Galaxy Interactive. The blockchain technology developed by the company can verify the authenticity of digital content such as photos and videos in real-time, and it has already partnered with leading UK media production company ITN.
The company plans to use the new funding to expand its commercial team and to extend its business into the Indian and American markets. Meanwhile, OpenOrigins will also launch a marketplace platform to help news organizations authorize AI training for their verification data.
Manny Ahmed, founder of OpenOrigins and a PhD from Cambridge University, stated that the company's uniqueness lies in its ability to verify real-time content as well as certify historical content. This technology records content verification information on the Hyperledger blockchain, providing content authenticity assurance across multiple fields including news media, insurance companies, and online dating platforms.
