For universities and research labs
A record of what researchers and students actually ran
Integrity questions come up later, when the original code is gone or changed.
What it helps with
Integrity offices
A sealed record of code and results when a question comes up.
Theses
Supervisors see that results came from the student's code.
Courses
See the runs and changes behind a programming assignment.
Research labs
Results stay tied to their code across projects, people and years.
How it works
Authors
Researchers and students run their work with kveritas and seal it.
Reviewers
Lab leads, supervisors, instructors and committees verify the report.
Lab leads, supervisors and committees can focus on the quality of the work, not on whether it ran.
Frequently asked questions
Does it prove the results are correct?+
No. It proves they came from the sealed code, unchanged. Judging the work stays with people.
Does it replace plagiarism tools?+
No. It shows what ran, not who wrote it.
Do authors have to share their data?+
No. The data is never read or uploaded.
What does verification cost?+
Nothing. It needs no account.
