About Us

Kelp.Digital is a small and ambitious tech startup working to empower content creators and transform the multimedia marketplace. Our current focus is on resolving numerous issues with content attribution and copyright protection.

The project is partly funded by the European Commission initiative and supported by the Web3 Foundation. We are open source.

About the project

The web application that we have is used to obtain the copyright and ownership statement using the https://anagolay.dev processes and stores it on the chain. The app communicates with the GraphQL server through the Apollo GraphQL client, web-workers for blockchain communication and image processing.

The web application is built using the latest ReactJS and Grommet.
