Andrew Cluev for Ecode

Your code can stay private. Keep evidence of your work.

Not every project belongs in a public repository.

You might be building a product, working under a confidentiality agreement, or simply not ready to share.

You can still keep a dated record of your code.

I'm part of the team behind Ecode, a free service for creating evidence to support code authorship without uploading the source.

How it works

Ecode calculates your file's SHA-256 fingerprint on your device. It combines database registration, a trusted RFC 3161 timestamp, and a Polygon blockchain record.

You receive a certificate with a QR code for verification. The source code stays with you.

Keep the full picture

Save the registered file and certificate alongside your development history. A timestamp records when a fingerprint existed. Your working files and history add context about who created the code.

No card. No subscription. Registration is free.

Register your code with Ecode
