Irys is the only provenance layer. It enables users to scale permanent data and precisely attribute its origin. By tracing and verifying where data comes from, Irys paves the way to incorporate accountability into all information.

Bundlr has evolved into Irys, symbolizing our commitment to being a strong provenance layer and a witness for humanity. Learn more about our mission, vision, and network principles in this blog post.

Arweave enables permanent onchain data, which is a core component of strong provenance. Arweave offers a sustainable and perpetual endowment, allowing users and developers to store data for at least 200 years. With Arweave, valuable information, apps, and history are preserved indefinitely, preventing any rewriting of the past.

When you upload data to Irys, it is stamped with a millisecond-accurate timestamp, attribution, and authorship details before being passed to Arweave where it is stored permanently. For more details, see our docs.
