Buyers often have no idea. They think they're supporting Indigenous artists and their communities when in fact, their money rarely reaches the people behind the work. Without a way to verify authenticity, good intentions can still lead to exploitation.
Every artwork deserves
a permanent record
Fading certificates, mislaid gallery receipts, and handwritten letters have long been the fragile threads connecting art to its story. Authentic Indigenous changes that.
Seamlessly migrate certificates and documentation into a permanent, blockchain-secured digital record — accessible from your phone, anywhere in the world.
Rescue Ageing Documents
Convert fading certificates, gallery letters, and receipts into permanent digital proof that can never fade, tear, or be lost.
Instant Ownership Verification
Verify ownership in seconds by tapping our tamper-proof NFC tag affixed to your artwork. No paperwork. No waiting.
Estate Planning Simplified
All your valuable artworks catalogued securely and accessible via our mobile app — potentially making estate planning easier for your family.
Enable Artist Royalties
Enable royalties for the First Nations artist on every resale on the Authentical platform.

Estimating the True Loss
If we conservatively assume:
-
Indigenous art market at A$500 million/year
-
80% of related souvenir market is counterfeit
-
Only 10% of Aboriginal artwork market was similarly impacted
Then the potential lost earnings for creators could be:
A$500 million × 10% × 80% = A$40 million/year
Over a 10-year span, that exceeds A$400 million that should have gone back to the communities and creators
Considering global demand and the decades Indigenous artists have faced misappropriation, the figure easily reaches into billion-dollar losses cumulatively. AI change what comes next.
