C2PA View, a browser-based provenance inspector
Drop in an image, video, audio file, PDF, or C2PA sidecar to inspect its cryptographically signed Content Credentials.
Field notes
The tool processes files locally with the official C2PA reference implementation compiled to WebAssembly, rather than sending them to a service backend. It supports common image, video, audio, and document formats as well as detached .c2pa manifests. A built-in C2PA test-suite fixture demonstrates an amber result when the certificate is not on the published trust lists, while the accompanying explanations distinguish absent metadata from evidence of tampering.
