Proven.lol is a centralized service for creating timestamped digital ownership proofs of online assets such as URLs and domains. It is designed for casual use rather than cryptographic rigor, explicitly distinguishing itself from tools like Keybase or Keyoxide by emphasizing simplicity and fun over serious identity verification. The process begins when a user claims ownership of a resource, after which the service supplies a unique verification snippet that must be placed on the target page or as a DNS record.
Verification occurs in one of two supported ways. For any URL, the snippet is added directly to the page content. For domain ownership claims, the snippet is inserted as a TXT record. Once placed, the user notifies proven.lol, which then scans the location to confirm the snippet's presence. Successful validation produces a permanent, timestamped proof. The service operates as an opinionated, centralized platform and carries a "dot lol" branding to underscore its lighthearted intent.
It is delivered as a web-based component of the omg.lol platform. Access requires an omg.lol membership, with pricing subject to an announced increase on August 1 and an option to purchase additional time at the current rate beforehand. No monthly fees are charged for the proofs feature itself, and it avoids any involvement with cryptocurrency, blockchains, or NFTs.
In the Other productivity space, Omg takes a focused approach. Easily proving ownership of websites, domains, and other online assets without complex cryptography. Omg is a consumer product aimed at internet users and creators. It is available for free. Omg is available on the web.
Behind Omg is omg.lol, and it first shipped in 2022. Among its 3 catalogued features are Page Verification, DNS Verification, and Timestamped Proofs.
