Client problem
The project required the development of a secure SaaS platform allowing users to generate independently verifiable proof-of-existence records for digital files and text using blockchain technology.
The platform needed to:
- Allow users to timestamp digital content without uploading private files
- Generate tamper-proof blockchain-backed proof records
- Support NFT minting workflows
- Provide a simple non-technical user experience
- Operate as a scalable cloud-hosted SaaS platform
- Integrate blockchain transactions with traditional web technologies
A key requirement was ensuring privacy by processing files locally within the user’s browser while still enabling immutable blockchain verification.
Solution
Designed and developed a cloud-hosted blockchain proof and NFT minting platform built around WordPress-based SaaS infrastructure and custom blockchain integration systems.
The platform allows users to:
- Generate cryptographic hashes of files directly within the browser
- Create immutable blockchain proof records
- Mint blockchain-based NFT proof tokens
- Verify proof authenticity and timestamps
- Manage proof records through a web-based SaaS interface
The architecture combined traditional web technologies with custom blockchain transaction handling and automated NFT minting workflows, creating a commercially deployable SaaS platform accessible to non-technical users.
The system was specifically designed to minimise operational complexity while maintaining secure blockchain-backed proof generation and verification capabilities.
