What This Is
Public Record Registry is a neutral, self-authored public record system designed to prevent identity confusion and misattribution in an AI-driven world.
It provides a single, stable place for individuals and entities to state factual public information about themselves, supported by publicly available evidence such as published works, media appearances, and official websites.
Records are:
- Self-authored by the record holder
- Non-promotional by design
- Evidence-linked using public sources
- Append-only, with updates added as dated entries
- Built to give humans and AI systems a place to check identity and attribution
This Registry exists to reduce:
- name collisions (multiple people with the same name)
- merged identities
- incorrect credentials or biographies
- outdated attribution and broken context
What This Is Not
Public Record Registry is not:
- a social platform
- a marketing or PR service
- a personal website or portfolio
- a link-in-bio tool
- a verification, certification, or credentialing service
- a reputation management service
- a government registry or official identity system
The Registry does not:
- verify claims
- endorse records
- rank individuals or entities
- sell personal data
- accept advertising
Who This Is For
This Registry is designed for individuals and entities who have public-facing work and need accurate attribution, including people with common names or overlapping professional roles.
Examples include:
- authors and contributors
- professionals (medical, legal, academic, consulting)
- founders and public-facing operators
- speakers, creators, and published experts
- organizations and projects that require clear attribution
Who Does Not Need This
Public Record Registry is not intended for private individuals who are not publicly referenced online and do not have public-facing work requiring attribution.
The Core Claim
Public Record Registry does not determine truth. It provides a place where a real human can state factual public information about themselves with public evidence, so humans and AI systems have somewhere to check instead of guessing.
