The SEC's recordkeeping rule names no platform. It covers every channel, and AI is the newest one. If you can't produce your team's AI activity, and prove it hasn't been altered, that's a recordkeeping violation, and as CCO, you're on the hook for it.
You're rolling out AI across every department, and your team now does real work in ChatGPT, Copilot, and Claude. None of it is captured the way Rule 17a-4 requires. Then you get audited, and your firm is staring down costly fines.
This is that blind spot, closed. Every AI interaction is sealed with cryptographic proof the instant it happens: a live, independently verifiable log you can hand a regulator, who can confirm it's the unaltered original without taking your word for it.
1,248 sealed records · independently verifiable · ready for your examiner
Sample data, shown live. Verae timestamps and seals every record the instant it changes, without ever seeing the contents, which stay in your own storage. In production, it seals up to 10,000 records per second.
Conventional recordkeeping tools — Smarsh, Global Relay, Theta Lake, Bloomberg Vault, Proofpoint — keep your records in WORM storage: immutable by policy, not by proof. Verae seals every record with cryptographic proof anyone can verify.
Comparison reflects conventional WORM-based archiving; capabilities vary by vendor and change over time.
He invented cryptographic timestamping in 1991: the science that lets you prove a record hasn't been altered, and the foundation under every blockchain since. Verae is what he's currently building: that proof, made simple enough for a compliance team and precise enough for an SEC exam.

Your people work across the AI tools they already use. Verae sits underneath all of it, sealing every action with cryptographic proof the moment it happens, into one tamper-proof record that stays in your own storage, never ours, that a regulator can verify without trusting any vendor, and that's shown only to the parties you authorize.
Every change your team makes, in every tool, is sealed the instant it happens, and stays in a DataCube you control. Nothing to log, nothing to remember.
Scattered activity becomes one tamper-proof record for the whole business, sealed by Verae and kept in your own storage.
Any record can be independently verified as the unaltered original (by you or a regulator, without trusting a vendor) and shown only to the parties you authorize.
Verae seals every interaction your team has with AI into a tamper-proof, time-stamped record. When the SEC asks, you don't just produce it. You prove it's the unaltered original, independently, without a regulator having to trust your archive or take your word for it.
Ordinary archives promise nothing was altered: a storage setting a vendor configured. Verae gives you cryptographic proof, sealed the instant a record is made. It cannot be edited, deleted, fabricated, or back-dated, not by AI, an insider, or even you.
A regulator can confirm any record is the unaltered original independently. No need to trust Verae, your archive, or your word, and the proof holds even if you switch vendors. Books-and-records and failure-to-produce findings become impossible to pin on you.
The AI tools and chats your recordkeeping never captured, sealed automatically. The work you can't produce today becomes work you can produce on demand.
When the SEC or FINRA comes calling, you hand over independently verifiable records, not internal logs an examiner can pick apart.
The security and archiving tools you run today store your records — they don't cryptographically seal them, and none were designed for AI. Verae is built for exactly this: immutable, independently verifiable proof for every AI interaction.
One integration across the systems and channels you already use. No rebuild, no migration.
Each record is cryptographically sealed the moment it's made. Invisible to your team, automatic, always on.
When an examiner, auditor, or regulator asks, generate an independently verifiable record in seconds.
Hoping your team is on top of it won't survive an exam.
You're rolling out AI across every department. In 2026, regulators want proof, not policies: evidence you can produce and verify, not a document that says you meant to. In 15 minutes, we'll show you how Verae turns every AI interaction into exactly that.
Verae is patent-pending timestamping technology from the co-inventor of blockchain. You connect it with one API call. Underneath, it does something no off-the-shelf blockchain can.
Verae connects into the systems your team already runs, with no migration, no rebuild, and no blockchain to manage. Each record stays in your own storage; the only thing that ever reaches Verae is its fingerprint. We never see the data itself.
# Seal a record: only its fingerprint leaves your systems POST https://api.verae.com/v1/seal { "fingerprint": "sha256:9f4a…e7b1", # hashed in your system "source": "your-system" } # the record never leaves your DataCube → 200 OK { "status": "sealed", "immutable": true }
Your records live in a DataCube™, stored wherever you choose, on infrastructure you control. Verae never sees what's inside. It seals only the cryptographic fingerprint onto a private blockchain: the science Stuart Haber invented in 1991, rebuilt for the enterprise, with post-quantum cryptography. The result isn't a vendor's promise that nothing changed. It's mathematical proof, verifiable by anyone, that survives a vendor breach, a migration, or a dispute, without ever revealing the contents.
