Provenance
Where Authenticity Begins
The foundation layer.
Every protected watch or handbag carries a Digital Certificate from creation. A single tap brings its origin and ownership trail into view.
It brings the kind of confidence that used to take paperwork, phone calls and records you may no longer have.
From the moment the watch or handbag leaves the maker, its record begins. Provenance keeps an ownership trail that paper alone rarely preserves.

Sentinel
Protection That Responds When You Need It
Everything in Provenance, with location reporting when the owner asks for it.
Sentinel is aimed at pieces with a higher risk of theft, such as a bag that could be taken from a car.
With Sentinel, activating Protection Mode in the app is designed to start location reporting as well as the stolen flag every edition carries. Location goes to the owner only, and only while Protection Mode is on.
During normal ownership, location is not tracked.
Sentinel is in development.

Guardian

The Shado Module
Made To Stay Out Of The Way.
A watch or handbag should never feel like a gadget. Shado checks the certificate, protects the handover, and leaves the luxury experience intact. The module sits outside the movement. It asks nothing of the mechanics and stays out of view during normal use.
The Shado App
The Owner’s Side Of Shado.
Use the app to verify, transfer, add an Inscription, or activate Protection Mode if something goes wrong. Control stays with the owner. The certificate remains with what they own.
-
01
Its Record, In Your Hand.
Each watch or handbag has its own page, with its Tughra, history and Inscription.
-
02
Tap To Verify.
Hold your phone to the piece. The registry answers in seconds.
-
03
Located If It’s Taken.
Protection Mode flags it stolen and, on Sentinel and Guardian, shows where it was last seen.
Coming soon to iOS and Android
Everyday assurance
Present When It Counts.
Most days, all you need is a quick check. If the watch or handbag goes missing, you can activate protection from the same place.
