Everything you need to know about Credify and how it works.
Recruiters get dozens of CVs per role. Many have seen fake AI-generated resumes and inflated credentials, so they're skeptical of everyone. Your real CV gets lumped in with the rest. Credify gives you proof: a cryptographic seal and a QR/link that says 'this is genuine.' Recruiters can verify in one tap, you stand out before they've read a line. It's not about replacing your CV. It's about making yours the one they trust.
Credify seals your documents, CV, diplomas, certificates, with a unique cryptographic hash (SHA-256). Once sealed, any change to the file breaks the seal. You get a QR code and shareable link. When someone scans or clicks it, they see all your documents verified: genuine, unmodified, and attributed to you.
Yes. Every CV is run through our AI detection system before approval. If we detect AI-generated content, we flag it and won't seal the document. When you see Approved, that means it passed both human review and AI detection.
Your documents are reviewed by our team as part of the approval process, this is how we verify they're genuine and human-written. After approval, only the cryptographic fingerprint is stored. Document content is not retained after review.
A hash is like a unique fingerprint for a file. Change a single word in your CV and the fingerprint changes completely. This means if someone tries to edit a sealed document, even slightly, the seal breaks and the verification page will flag it. It's the same technology used in banking and blockchain.
When 72% of recruiters have encountered fake CVs, verified proof becomes a priority, not a nice-to-have. A QR or link takes one tap. No login, no friction. They see your documents, the seal, and the timestamp. It answers the question they're already asking: 'Is this real?' If your CV has it and others don't, you're already ahead.
They're taken to your Credify verification page where they see all your sealed documents listed with their verification status. Each document shows as "Verified", with the seal timestamp. No login required on their end. It just works.
Yes, this is included in your £4.99 package. Every scan is logged with the city, country, and exact time. You'll see a live analytics feed in your dashboard showing which applications are getting attention.
Anywhere you share your credentials: paste the link into your CV next to your contact details, add it to your cover letter, include it in your LinkedIn profile summary, or add it to your email signature. Wherever a recruiter looks, the proof is one click away.
PDF, JPEG, PNG, and WebP (up to 10MB per file). PDFs are recommended for CVs and diplomas for the best presentation.
No. £4.99, once. You seal up to 10 documents, get your QR and link, and access your scan analytics for 1 year. Renew anytime when you need to extend. No monthly fee.
If you update your CV you'll need to re-seal the new version, the old hash no longer matches the new file (which is the whole point). You revoke the old document in your dashboard (it stays in your verification history as revoked) and add the updated one. Your QR link stays the same. Documents are never deleted, only revoked, so recruiters always see the full audit trail.
No. The verification page is public, any recruiter can open your link or scan your QR without signing up for anything. That's intentional: zero friction for them means they'll actually check it.
We review every document before sealing. Fake, forged, or misleading information, including AI-generated content, is detected and rejected. If your document doesn't pass, you'll be notified and can re-upload a genuine version. Don't waste your money: only submit credentials you can back up. Submissions with fabricated information will not be sealed.
After you pay and seal your first CV, an expert recruiter, someone who reviews CVs for a living, gives you feedback on structure, wording, and how hiring managers perceive it. It's a one-time review included in your £4.99. You'll see the feedback in your dashboard within a few days, with concrete tips to improve. One per account.
