WDY CERTIFIED · SUBMIT

Drop. Check. Send. Nothing uploads.

Drop your files — your browser computes the SHA-256 fingerprints on your own device, fills the form for you, and shows the record live. Check it, press send, done. All files are fingerprint-only — originals and scans never leave your computer.

① Drop the files (one or many)  →  ② Review the auto-filled record  →  click Send to WDY — that's the whole thing.

⚡ Preferred — submit with your AI assistantone-line install · Claude Code / Hermes / Codex / Cursor

Hand any line below to your AI assistant — paste it into the chat, or run it in a terminal. It installs the skill and submits for you; fingerprints are computed locally and originals never leave your machine. No AI assistant? Use the drop zone below — the result is identical.

① Any local AI assistant — paste into its chat (recommended)
Install this skill and use it to certify my file: https://wdy.org/skills/wdy-provenance-submit/SKILL.md
② Hermes — one command
hermes skills install https://wdy.org/skills/wdy-provenance-submit/SKILL.md
③ Claude Code / Codex / Cursor — one terminal line (into a local skills directory)
mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills/wdy-provenance-submit && curl -fsSL -o ~/.claude/skills/wdy-provenance-submit/SKILL.md https://wdy.org/skills/wdy-provenance-submit/SKILL.md
④ Then just say
Certify this file: ./my-micro-drama_master.mp4

For locally-executing assistants (file access + network): Claude Code, Hermes, Codex, Cursor, WorkBuddy… Browser-only chat AIs: just use the drop zone below. The skill ships the submission spec and wording guardrails — your assistant won't overpromise on WDY's behalf. View the skill file.

Prefer offline?

Download this page as a single file — it runs on any computer, no internet needed for fingerprinting. Only the final send step needs a connection — or copy the live record below into your own email and send it yourself. The record preview appears as soon as you drop a file.

Review the details

* required; everything else is pre-filled with sensible defaults. All fields on the left flow into the JSON on the right.

The master carries a visible on-screen AI label in a prominent position (NRTA Order No. 16 Art. 34). Required for AI/hybrid — the tool refuses without it.
Implicit metadata marking is present in the delivered file.
The metadata above is accurate and I hold or represent the rights in this work.

Clicking send delivers the manifest JSON and every file's fingerprint as email content to the submit endpoint on this domain — wdy.org/api/submit — which delivers it straight to hello@wdy.org — no attachments, no uploads. Originals never leave you: the fingerprints of your rights documents are part of the record, so "this is that exact contract" can be proven later. WDY reviews within 5 business days and emails your verify link and record number. Pilot period: free for the first 10 partner titles (by written confirmation). Otherwise pay-per-record: first record $1 per account, then $4.9/record — see the pricing card. If the channel is unavailable, your email app opens instead (content auto-copied).

Live record preview

Updates as you edit — this is exactly what WDY receives: a few KB of metadata and fingerprints, no media. Click the box to copy the record.

💡 You can also copy this entire preview into your own email client and send it to hello@wdy.org (subject CERTIFIED) — every field on the left is already inside, so the result is exactly the same.

✓ Submission delivered to WDY

Receipt · your manifest has reached hello@wdy.org. What happens next:

  1. WDY reviews the record (≤ 5 business days): fields, fingerprints, disclosures; we may ask for supporting documents by email;
  2. After review, you receive the record number (WDY-2026-XXXX) and the permanent public verify-page link;
  3. Once live, anyone can re-verify offline with file + record + public key — no trust in WDY required.

Keep this page and do not submit twice. To add material, just reply to the confirmation email.

How fast will hashing be on my computer?

It depends on your CPU and disk — rough reference points (Chrome on a typical laptop):

File sizeRecent machine (modern CPU, SSD)Older machine (2015-era CPU, HDD)
50 MB (script, poster)1–2 s2–5 s
300 MB (one episode)5–12 s15–40 s
2 GB (season master)35–90 s2–5 min

Memory use stays constant (4 MB slices), so large masters are safe on 4 GB machines. Heavy background tasks (video editing, antivirus scans) slow it down. Very large files can also use the CLI: python wdy_certify.py issue FILE --title T --type video --mode hybrid --ai-ratio 0.35 --record-id WDY-2026-000N --key YOUR.key
