About
Objects outlive owners. Their stories should too.
Provenance Story is a guide to recording and sharing the history of valuable things — art, memorabilia, heirlooms and collectibles — using QR codes and NFC chips.
We are part of Prove Anything, whose mission is to make claims about the physical world verifiable. The technology behind every story here is SmartLinks, which gives each physical object its own connected digital identity.
What we believe
- Provenance belongs with the object, not in a drawer.
- Anyone should be able to check a story — not just experts.
- Owners should control what is public and what is private.
- Tags must never harm the object they protect.

Give your collection a digital identity
SmartLinks connects physical objects to a living digital record — one identity per item, readable by QR or NFC, with ownership history, documents and media that travel with it.
