Can a photo prove what happened?
A photo can document useful visual information, but what it establishes depends on context, origin, timing and the question being asked.
Keptara helps preserve and organize context. It does not make a universal legal or factual guarantee about a photo.
What matters
- Wide context views help explain close details
- Original files can preserve more information than screenshots
- Related documents and messages may strengthen context
- A clear timeline can make the record easier to understand
Keptara’s position
Keptara is designed to preserve useful context and make records easier to understand. It does not claim universal legal admissibility, determine blame, or automatically declare media true or fake.
