Why this is easy to accept

Confirm the same facts — continuously current and verifiable

When a power of attorney looks stale, you may request an agent’s certification (Tex. Est. Code §751.203): the agent’s own statement, sworn under penalty of perjury, that the power of attorney is in force and not revoked, the principal is alive and competent, and the agent acts within authority. A Certification of Current Authority is not that sworn statement — the agent’s signature carries the sworn weight. It’s a verification tool: a continuously-current, independently verifiable way to confirm the same facts that certification attests to — currency and verifiability, so you can promptly verify what you’re entitled to confirm. We confirm and verify; we don’t certify and we don’t compel.

Four steps

Verify it — no account, no call to the firm

1

Open the link, or scan the QR

It loads a public verification page. Nothing to install, no login, and no relationship with us required.

2

Read the plain result

You see, in plain language, whether the authority is genuine and in force:

✓ Verified — issued by [Firm], authority in force, scope: [X], not revoked, as of this moment.

A forgery, an altered scope, or a revoked authority cannot show “Verified.”

3

Know what’s behind that result

Five independent checks run in your browser against the public record:

Integritythe record’s contents are intact and unaltered.
Issuer signatureit was signed by the issuing firm’s key.
Key ↔ identitythat key matches the firm’s on-chain identity and the key the firm publishes in its own DNS — so a copycat can’t forge it.
Ownershipthe client owns the record on the public ledger.
Statusits current state — in force, suspended, revoked, or expired — read live.
4

Rely on it

The trust root is the firm’s own key, bound to the firm’s domain — not our endorsement; you trust the same firm you’d have called. Revocation propagates instantly to your check, everywhere. And because each record carries its own proof and is anchored to a public ledger, it keeps verifying even if the firm changes systems — or we cease to exist.

Be precise

What it asserts — and what it does not

It asserts
that the named firm issued this record, the named client owns it, the stated scope and effective conditions, and its current status — all on the public record.
It does not replace your process
it doesn’t perform your identity check of the person presenting it, or make your acceptance decision. Validity and scope are governed by the executed instrument and state law.
It never touches assets
the platform holds no client assets, accounts, or keys; the record proves who is authorized and works alongside your controls — it can’t move or seize anything.
Verified means firm-attested
everything on the certification is signed by the issuing firm; informational, not legal advice. Self-asserted information elsewhere in the system is labeled as such and never shown to you as verified.
What we’re asking

Use it to confirm the facts you’re entitled to verify

Let a verified Certification of Current Authority be how your team confirms the facts an agent’s §751.203 certification attests to — promptly and reliably, so a clean confirmation removes a §751.206 ground for delay and correspondingly reduces your §751.212 exposure. It doesn’t replace the agent’s sworn certification or your acceptance decision — it confirms, it doesn’t certify or compel. We’re glad to pilot it against your acceptance policy, walk your risk and legal teams through the verification and the revocation demonstration, and show you a record verifying with our servers switched off.
