Beta · Stage 2 — Operational Pilot  ·  AVA is live in pilot form. The complete coherent version arrives with Stage 3 — Public Launch — including registry, full MAIA cross-attestation, and the live verification portal.
The Origin Protocol  ·  AI Verified Accreditation

AI gave everyone the power to create.
AVA gives everyone the power to be recognized.

The recognition layer for the AI-empowered creator. Multi-model verification. Evidence-based. Cryptographically anchored. Designed for the creators the existing systems would never find.

MAIA Multi-Model Attestation · Live 2 vendor families live · Stage 3 will add Gemini and open-source frontier models
First Precedent · Crunchbase #2 globally · May 2026 Algorithmic validation of the kind of case AVA exists to identify — free tier, no PR agency, no submission service.
The Thesis

The Two Asymmetries

AI changed one half of the equation. The other half is what AVA exists to change.

Solved · 2022–2024

Access to creation

A researcher in Tehran can run analyses that, ten years ago, required a Stanford lab. A founder in Lagos can design systems that required a Y Combinator cohort. AI removed the infrastructure barrier to producing serious work, anywhere in the world.

Unsolved · Until now

Access to recognition

But accelerators, journals, festivals, and prize committees still gatekeep through the old privilege networks. The talent that AI has unleashed is invisible — because the systems that used to discover talent were never built for a world where talent comes from everywhere.

The Mechanism

Six Phases. No Shortcuts.

Every verification follows the same six phases in the same order. Default outcome is rejection. Evidence shifts it to issuance.

1

Claim Intake

State your claim precisely. The auditor restates it and breaks it into testable sub-claims.

2

Evidence Collection

Submit supporting documents. Every file is hashed (SHA-256) and timestamped.

3

Five-Layer Analysis

Authenticity · Originality · Technical Validity · Timeline · Consistency.

4

Mandatory Challenge

Devil's-Advocate phase. The auditor actively searches for reasons to reject. Not skippable.

5

Weighted Scoring

Five weighted criteria. Each score carries explicit reasoning. Public rubric.

6

Certificate or Rejection

Certificate at ≥60. Formal rejection below. Full transcript attached as Proof-of-Conversation.

Three Categories

Recognition for What You Built

Certificates are organized by what is being attested, not by who is applying.

ML

Master Level Accreditation

A complete framework, methodology, or multi-module ecosystem. The applicant is the architect of a coherent body of work that spans years and integrates multiple disciplines.

For: creators of full systems and frameworks.

PS

Protocol Specification

A foundational technical contribution — a rule-set, standard, or specification that other systems can build on. Includes adoption evidence and reference implementations.

For: authors of specs and standards.

OD

Origin Declaration

Proof of first creation. Anchors priority over a specific idea, design, or invention against a verified, dated evidence chain. The strictest evidentiary discipline of all categories.

For: creators establishing temporal precedence.

Multi-Model Attestation

Start Your Verification

AVA is multi-model by design. Run your verification against either vendor — or both — and let MAIA cross-attest. Vendor diversity is the structural mechanism that resists capture.

C

Verify with Claude (Anthropic)

The skeptical-investigator auditor running on Claude Sonnet 4.5+. Full six-phase protocol enforced.

● Live · Beta
G

Verify with ChatGPT (OpenAI)

The original AVA Certificate Master GPT. Six-phase protocol, transcript attached as Proof-of-Conversation.

● Live

The recognition system the AI era requires does not yet exist.

This is the specification for the one that should. Read the full pitch — or begin a verification now.
