Attestiv Named Official Deepfake Detector of Utah Tech Week

We are excited to share that Attestiv has been selected as the Official Deepfake Detector of Utah Tech Week—a statewide celebration of startups, builders, and the future of innovation. Learn more about the event (and the full schedule) here: https://www.utahtechweek.com/

Why this matters

Deepfakes and manipulated media are no longer just an internet novelty—they’re a real-world risk for businesses, newsrooms, insurers, financial services, and virtually any organization that depends on digital trust. As AI-generated content becomes easier to create and harder to spot, verifying authenticity isn’t optional anymore.

That’s where Attestiv comes in.

What Attestiv does

Attestiv helps organizations analyze photos, videos, and documents for signs of manipulation or AI generation—through both an easy-to-use UI and scalable APIs. Whether you’re fighting fraud, protecting a brand, or validating media before it spreads, our platform is built to help teams make faster, more confident decisions.

See you at Utah Tech Week (and grab the swag)

If you’re attending Utah Tech Week, come say hello. And yes—we’re also giving away our limited-run “Deepfake Brew” drink coasters (designed to spark conversations about authenticity in the AI era). Swing by and grab one while supplies last.
