Browser widget (Enterprise/Business)

In short: capture what you’re viewing in your browser and create a proof in a few clicks.

The widget is built for fast capture when content may change or disappear. It creates the same kind of tamper-evident proof record as the dashboard — just initiated directly from the page you’re viewing.

Tutorial Browser widget Enterprise Business ~5 min read
Quick overview

The widget lets you create a proof for the page you’re currently viewing. It’s available for Enterprise and Business plans.

1) Requirements
Plan + sign-in
2) Install
Add the extension
3) Capture
Create a proof
4) After capture
Proof ID + ZIP

Requirements

  • The browser widget is available for Enterprise and Business plans.
  • You need to be signed in (the widget uses your account permissions).
  • The page must be accessible in your browser (public URLs are the primary target).

Step 1 — Install the widget

Install the GetProofAnchor widget in your browser (Chrome-based browsers recommended). Once installed, pin it so it’s one click away.

Tip

If your organization uses managed browsers, ask IT to allow the extension and pin it by policy.

Step 2 — Create a proof from the page you’re viewing

Open the page you want to preserve, then:

  1. Click the GetProofAnchor widget icon.
  2. Select Capture this page (or similar action in your UI).
  3. Confirm capture (optional notes if your UI supports it).
  4. Wait for completion — you will receive a Proof ID.

The widget is designed for speed: it captures evidence directly from your browser context, which is useful when you need to preserve exactly what you saw.

Step 3 — After capture (Proof ID, Evidence ZIP, verification)

After capture, you can:

  • open the proof page via Proof ID
  • export an Evidence ZIP for archiving or sharing
  • verify later by Proof ID or by verifying the ZIP

Remember: any modification to exported Evidence ZIP contents (text, screenshot, files, structure) will fail verification, because integrity is checked against the SHA-256 manifest.

When to use widget vs dashboard

  • Use widget when you need “capture what I’m seeing right now” from the browser.
  • Use dashboard when you want a clean workflow (paste URL, manage proofs, export ZIPs).
