Screenshots are not evidence.TrueSnap is different.
Screenshots taken in a regular browser can be tampered with in seconds, and without a way to prove their integrity they may not hold up as legal evidence. TrueSnap captures pages inside a tamper-resistant dedicated browser, builds a verifiable evidence package, and anchors its fingerprint on a tamper-proof blockchain — proving the content was collected exactly as-is in a controlled environment.

Why courts reject plain screenshots
Digital evidence needs integrity of origin, content, and time
No proof the page is unaltered
Anyone can open browser developer tools (F12) and rewrite the text, numbers, or images on a page in seconds. A screenshot of that altered view looks identical to the real one — so a tampered image can pass as 'evidence'. Ordinary capture apps and extensions can't really stop this.
No proof of when it was taken
The 'date created' on a file can be changed with just a few clicks. Without an independent record that anyone else can verify, it's hard to prove exactly when a screenshot was actually captured.
No proof of where it came from
Even if a screenshot looks right, you also need to show it really came from that website. Without a record of the address you visited, the data you received, and the security certificate involved, the source can't be objectively proven. TrueSnap saves all of that context together with the capture so the entire collection process can be explained.
TrueSnap preserves the original, exactly as-is
With multi-layer proof, origin · content · environment · time are all verified objectively
Origin & network integrity
The dedicated browser records every request and response made to the site, along with the TLS certificate verification result. External proxies and man-in-the-middle attempts are blocked automatically, so we can objectively show the page truly came from that website.
Content integrity
Every artifact — screenshot, page source, network log — gets its own SHA-256 fingerprint (hash). If any file is altered later, even by a single character, the fingerprint won't match, so tampering is detected immediately.
Environment & tool integrity
Developer tools that could be used to modify the page are completely disabled, and any tampering attempt is caught by built-in detection. The capture app itself is also verified at launch to confirm it hasn't been altered, ensuring the entire capture environment can be trusted.
Time & external attestation
The evidence fingerprint is anchored on a tamper-proof blockchain so a third party can objectively verify exactly when it existed. The user's interaction flow and environment information at the moment of capture are also recorded, and everything is bundled into a forensic certificate that's ready to submit to courts or internal review.

Screenshot vs TrueSnap
Built by an expert who knows what courts require
TrueSnap was designed by a certified forensic examiner who performs special forensic assessments for the Supreme Court. It's not just a capture tool — every feature was built from the ground up to meet the standards courts demand for digital evidence.
“For digital evidence to be admissible in court, you need to prove the authenticity of its origin, the integrity of its content, and an objective timestamp. Having worked on numerous forensic examination cases, I've seen firsthand why ordinary screenshots fall short — so I built a tool that structurally guarantees all three.”
Designed to court evidence standards
Structurally designed to satisfy the three requirements courts demand for digital evidence: authenticity of origin, content integrity, and time attestation.
Real forensic expertise built in
HAR network logging, TLS verification, DOM tampering detection — all defense layers are grounded in real-world forensic examination experience.
Backed by a certified examiner
From evidence collection to certificate issuance and blockchain anchoring, every step is personally reviewed and refined by a forensic professional.

Frequently Asked Questions
Plain screenshots are easy to fake with devtools. TrueSnap captures inside a dedicated browser with devtools structurally off, then writes HAR, per-file hashes, integrity logs, and a certificate to a local folder so you can explain and verify what was collected.
