PRC CertiCore™
Certification Framework for IRP Proofs
Hash, package, register, and verify proofs for documents, identity, and real-world assets — anchored on PRC Network and standardized under IRP.
What is CertiCore?
CertiCore is a framework and reference implementation that provides a consistent way to:
IRP defines the standards. CertiCore implements them.
Core Capabilities
Enterprise-grade proof infrastructure
Document Fingerprinting
Cryptographic hashes, canonicalization rules, and multi-file bundles (PDFs, images, metadata).
Proof Packaging
Standardized proof format (IRP structure), versioned schemas, includes issuer + subject + standard.
How CertiCore Works
From document to verifiable proof in 5 steps
Prepare
Issuer collects documents + metadata
Actors & Trust Model
Understanding the roles and responsibilities in the proof ecosystem
Issuer
Accredited entity issuing proofs (registry, bank, developer)
Important Clarity
CertiCore verifies cryptographic integrity and registry status.
CertiCore does not "declare legal truth" by itself — it proves integrity + issuance provenance.
This distinction is critical for regulatory clarity and institutional adoption.
Standards Compatibility (IRP)
CertiCore implements IRP standards — currently focused on IRP-1xx and IRP-2xx (DeedLock), with additional series planned.
IRP-1xx Core & Identity
Foundational standards for identity proofs, document certification, and KYC workflows.
View IRP-1xx StandardsIRP-2xx Real Estate (DeedLock)
Property title standards including IRP-210 DeedLock Title Security for real estate assets.
View DeedLock StandardsFull standards text is published on IRP Registry. CertiCore provides the technical implementation and verification infrastructure for the IRP standards your applications rely on.
Integrations Across the PRC Ecosystem
CertiCore connects seamlessly with all PRC Network products
Developer Interfaces
APIs and SDKs for integrating proof verification and issuance
Verify API
availableValidate proof status and integrity using proofId. Returns standard, issuer, subject, timestamps, and on-chain anchor metadata.
Issuer API
plannedIssuer workflows for creating proof packages, registering anchors, and managing revocations in a controlled manner.
SDK (Client & Server)
plannedHelpers for hashing, canonicalization, proof formatting, local verification, and integration shortcuts.
Where CertiCore Is Used
Real-world applications across industries
Solutions Built on CertiCore
Industry-specific applications can use CertiCore to generate proof packages that conform to IRP standards and remain independently verifiable.
RealProof
Property certificates & due-diligence packs (IRP-2xx)
A property-focused solution that packages title evidence and disclosures into tamper-evident proofs that can be verified by buyers, banks, auditors, and regulators.
Maps to IRP: Implements IRP-2xx (DeedLock) proof packaging + verification workflows for real-estate evidence.

Asset certification for gold, vehicles, commodities (future IRP series)
A broader certification suite for physical and financial assets—designed to produce verifiable proof packages across multiple asset classes.
Maps to IRP: Designed to implement future IRP standards (e.g., IRP-4xx commodities/assets) for consistent issuance, status, and verification.
Visit assetproof.ioNote: These are solution layers built on top of CertiCore. IRP remains the neutral standards layer; CertiCore provides the implementation and verification infrastructure.
Compliance & Governance
Built for institutional environments and regulatory clarity
Versioned Proof Formats
All proof packages include clear version identifiers, enabling predictable parsing and backwards compatibility.
Predictable Verification Rules
Verification logic follows documented standards with no hidden parameters or proprietary black boxes.
Issuer Accreditation Concept
Tiered issuer model allows for different trust levels and verification requirements based on issuer credentials.
Auditability via On-chain Anchor
Every proof registration creates an immutable audit trail on PRC Network with cryptographic timestamps.
Important Legal Context: CertiCore provides cryptographic verification and registry status; legal interpretation depends on jurisdiction and underlying issuer authority. CertiCore is infrastructure for proof integrity, not legal adjudication.
Implement IRP Proofs with CertiCore
Whether You're a registry, financial institution, developer platform, or real estate firm, CertiCore gives you production-grade proof infrastructure built on open standards.
