What It Is

GetProofAnchor is a web and social media evidence-capture tool. Its purpose is not to replace antivirus software, WAFs, or vulnerability protection, but to address the integrity of digital evidence: what state a web page existed in at a given time, and whether it was altered afterward. It can capture public URLs, and it can also use a Chrome extension to capture pages as actually seen by a logged-in user, generating a Proof ID and an Evidence ZIP.

Core Capabilities

At its core is a four-layer trust stack: each file inside the Evidence ZIP has a recorded SHA-256 hash; capture records are entered into an append-only hash chain; the chain head is anchored via Bitcoin OpenTimestamps; and a qualified eIDAS timestamp from SK ID Solutions is also used. The verifier reports Match or Modified, and can display layered integrity results. An evidence package may include screenshots, extracted content, page files, metadata, a manifest, timestamps, and blockchain anchoring materials, with support for third-party offline verification.

Pricing and Deployment

The text states that subscriptions start at €19/month, with a 7-day free trial, no contract, and cancellation allowed. Done-for-you forensic capture services start from €49, suitable for users who do not want to operate the tool themselves. Deployment is mainly via a SaaS dashboard and browser extension, supporting Chrome, Edge, and Opera. The documentation notes that capturing logged-in pages is available on the Business and Enterprise plans, but specific pricing is not disclosed.

Pros and Cons

Its main advantage is that it is more resistant to challenge than ordinary screenshots: evidence can be taken off-platform and verified without relying on a single vendor’s online service. The eIDAS timestamp is especially valuable for legal and compliance scenarios in the EU/EEA. The limitations are also clear: it verifies integrity, not the truthfulness of the content; it does not guarantee court admissibility; and there is limited information on security-platform integrations such as alert management, APIs, SIEM, and enterprise SSO.

Who It’s For and Access From China

It is suitable for legal, investigative, journalism, brand-protection, audit/compliance, and reputation-management teams, with use cases such as defamation, changes to terms, pricing commitments, deleted social media posts, and infringement takedowns. The text does not specify access status from mainland China. For payments, only card payment for the done-for-you forensic service is explicitly mentioned. If local litigation or regulatory matters are involved, users should also evaluate domestic alternatives such as electronic data preservation, notary offices, trusted timestamping, or judicial blockchain services.
