YOUR ART.
YOUR PROOF.
YOUR TERMS.
Wing embeds invisible proof of origin directly into your artwork. No watermark. No certificate. The art itself is the proof.

The problem
Someone stole your art. You can prove you made it — but can you prove the copy is a copy?
DMCA takedowns take weeks. Visible watermarks ruin your composition. Reverse image search is unreliable. And when two identical images exist online, platforms cannot tell which is the original.
Wing changes this. It embeds provenance into the luminance of your artwork — invisible to the eye, but irrefutable when scanned. The proof travels with the art, not beside it.
The protocol
Embed. Publish. Trace.
Three steps between creating your art and owning your proof.
Upload
Drop your high-res export. PNG, JPEG, or TIFF. Wing maps your luminance space and identifies optimal embedding regions — no configuration needed.
Embed
Provenance data is modulated into the image itself. No separate file. No visible change. Your name, the date, and a unique ID travel inside the pixels.
Share
Post your Wing version everywhere. If it is reposted, cropped, or shared without credit — one phone scan reveals you as the creator.
The moment
Point your phone.
See the proof.
When someone scans a Wing-protected artwork, the provenance appears: your name, the creation date, and a unique provenance ID. No app required. The proof is embedded in the light of the image itself.

Built for How Artists Actually Work
Whether you post on Instagram or ship limited editions, Wing fits your workflow.
Social Media Theft Protection
Post your full-quality work on Instagram, Twitter, and ArtStation. If it's reposted without credit, one scan reveals you as the original creator. No watermark. No cropping defense needed.
Print Studio Provenance
Generate unique provenance for every print in an edition. Each physical copy carries its own invisible proof -- edition number, artist, studio. Collectors verify with a phone.
Leak Tracing
Like canary tokens for art. Each share gets a unique embedded ID. If your work appears where it shouldn't, trace it back to the exact source. Know who leaked it.
Edition Management
Upload once, generate hundreds of uniquely-marked copies. Track which edition number shipped to which buyer. When print #47/200 appears on eBay, you know if it's real.

Artists Who Have the Proof
From independent illustrators to print studios to marketplace moderators.
“I had 87 screenshots in a folder called 'stolen.' Now I have proof embedded in every piece I post. The first time I scanned my own work and saw my name appear -- that changed everything.”
Mika Tanaka
Digital Illustrator, Independent
“We produce 200-print limited editions for 15 artists a year. Wing gives each print unique, invisible provenance. Our collectors scan them. Our artists trust us. It elevated the entire studio.”
Daniel Reeves
Owner, Spoke Light Press
“I review 40 art theft disputes a day. Both sides claim ownership, and I had no way to know. With Wing provenance, I scan the image and the creator's name appears in seconds. Dispute over.”
Sana Malik
Trust & Safety Lead, ArtHive Marketplace
