# Meet ORIGYN ORIGYN creates powerful digital certificates that prove authenticity, provenance and ownership of valuable assets. Every digital certificate is stored fully on the IC blockchain, resulting in the most secure, transparent and incorruptible certificate of its kind. These certificates are also exceptionally robust and customizable, housing data, images, documents, multimedia, marketplaces and even entire applications. The mission of ORIGYN Foundation is to build trust in what’s most valuable. In order to fulfill this mission, we develop tools and solutions on an open, decentralized Web3 platform—known as the ORIGYN Protocol—which is designed to protect valuable assets, including both luxury and manufactured goods, precious metals, artwork, IP and natively digital assets. ### Building Trust Through Immutable Technology ORIGYN delivers an unrivaled open protocol that supports extraordinarily rich digital certificates capable of housing data, images, documents, multimedia and entire applications—issued and fully secured on the Internet Computer, which is the fastest and greenest blockchain in existence. This open trust protocol includes a broad suite of solutions and technologies built by the ORIGYN ecosystem to protect physical and digital assets and reduce industry frictions through Web3 tools focused on increasing transparency, data sovereignty and consumer trust. The ORIGYN Protocol, which hosts all of the tools and solutions developed by ORIGYN, operates entirely “on-chain.” All of the underpinning technology, including its uniquely capable digital certificate, is destined for open-source status. This means industry leaders who join the ORIGYN ecosystem may inspect the underlying platform’s codebase to ascertain what can and cannot be done with their data and trust that this data cannot be tampered with or misused. No other solution in the market today has achieved the feat of 100% “on-chain” certification and storage. Indeed, other platforms offload portions of their data and infrastructure to third-party intermediaries who leave consumers and businesses vulnerable to data corruption, loss and misuse. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
