Quick Answer

Reader trust in media is at historic lows. AI-generated articles are eroding confidence further. Humanums lets journalists attach verifiable proof that their reporting was written by a human, giving readers and editors a trust signal that goes beyond the byline.

Attach a verification badge to published articles so readers can confirm human authorship with one click.
Give editors a behavioral audit trail for contributor submissions without running unreliable AI detectors.
Differentiate original reporting from AI-assisted content with portable, cryptographically signed proof.

Rebuild reader trust with verifiable proof

Readers increasingly question whether articles are AI-generated. A byline used to be enough. Now it is not. Humanums adds a verification layer: a badge readers can click to see the behavioral evidence behind the article.

Protect contributor integrity at scale

Newsrooms accepting freelance or contributor content face a new vetting challenge. Running detector tools on submissions creates friction and inaccurate results. With Humanums, contributors certify their own work and submit the verification link alongside the draft.

Meet emerging editorial standards

Major publishers and press associations are developing AI disclosure policies. Behavioral certification gives newsrooms a concrete mechanism to comply: verifiable, auditable, and attached to the content itself.

Frequently asked questions

Can journalists use their own writing tools?+

Currently Humanums captures signals in its built-in editor. Chrome extension support for external platforms is coming.

What if a journalist uses AI for research but writes the article?+

That is fine. Humanums verifies the writing process, not the research. Using AI to gather information does not affect certification of original prose.

Can newsrooms verify certificates in bulk?+

Yes, every certificate has a public verification URL. API access for bulk verification is available on the Publisher plan.
