That's a problem if it's your business.</p> <p>Licensing logic, proprietary algorithms, API workflows, monetization systems — if it runs in JavaScript, it ships as source. Minification doesn't protect it. Standard obfuscation tools can be reversed using publicly available tools.</p> <p>We built PrimeVeil to change that.</p> <p>PrimeVeil is a JavaScript code protection platform for developers and teams who take their IP seriously. Upload your file and get back output that is genuinely resistant to reverse engineering — not just harder to read.</p> <p>The proof is public: We have an open $150 deobfuscation challenge at <a href="https://primeveil.com/challenge" rel="noopener noreferrer">primeveil.com/challenge</a>.</p> <p>It hasn't been claimed.</p> <p>Zero successful breaks on any current PrimeVeil output. No working deobfuscator exists in public. We put money on it because we believe it.</p> <p>If you're shipping JavaScript that contains logic worth protecting — licensing, authentication, business rules, algorithms — PrimeVeil was built for you.</p> <p>Free tier available. No credit card required.</p> <p>→ <a href="//primeveil.com">primeveil.com</a> → <a href="//primeveil.com/challenge">primeveil.com/challenge</a></p> <p>Covalence Systems builds security tooling for developers.
