Stop Deepfakes—Launch the GeoMoments Verification App

Donation protected
I’m Julian Gomez and I’m building GeoMoments, a mobile app that lets anyone capture photos, video, or audio, stamps them with time, GPS, and device ID, then stores an immutable hash on blockchain. The result? A simple way for the world to prove what’s real—and call out deepfakes and misinformation instantly. We’re raising funds to finish development, launch a public beta, and keep the core verification service free for citizen storytellers.

4. The Full Story

A. The Problem
Deepfakes are everywhere. AI tools can generate realistic but fake images, videos, even audio in minutes.

Misinformation spreads faster than facts. False posts gain traction before journalists or platforms can fact-check.

No easy proof. Everyday witnesses and reporters lack a tamper-proof way to show exactly when and where footage was captured.

B. Our Solution – GeoMoments
Capture: Shoot photos, video, or audio—right in the app.

Stamp: We embed precise GPS coordinates, timestamp, and device signature.

Hash & Anchor: The data’s hash goes to a public blockchain—unalterable, censorship-resistant.

Verify: Anyone can tap a map pin or QR to confirm authenticity in seconds.

Expose Deepfakes: If a video claims to be from yesterday in Kyiv, but no GeoMoment exists (or metadata is spoofed), the community can flag it instantly.

C. Impact

Journalists & NGOs: Authenticate on-the-ground footage—faster than a newsroom can yell “fact-check.”

Civic Safety: During disasters or protests, emergency teams can rely on verified posts.

Everyday Users: Protect your credibility, build a track record of truthful reporting, maybe even earn tips.

D. Funding Breakdown
Use of Funds Amount % of Goal
Final dev & QA (deepfake-detection API hooks) $20,000 40%

7. FAQ Highlights

Is this a charity? No. We’re a mission-driven startup; donations are not tax-deductible.

How does blockchain help? The media hash is stored on chain—any tampering changes the hash, breaking verification.

Will you sell my data? Never. GeoMoments keeps only the hash; your original file stays on your phone.
