# LaunchPillow > LaunchPillow is the open provenance layer for human creative authority — a cryptographic registry and knowledge graph that places every enrolled creator inside the AI era's search surface, permanently and platform-independently. LaunchPillow is a provenance infrastructure company that issues each enrolled creator a machine-readable identity node: a W3C DID v1.1 document, a W3C VC 2.0 Verifiable Credential, and a Schema.org JSON-LD profile published on the open web and queryable by every AI system that indexes structured data. The node is not a social profile. It is a typed entity in a growing knowledge graph, connected to 55,000 peer-reviewed research papers, 1,100+ information verticals, and every other enrolled creator through weighted, provenance-traced edges. The cryptographic substrate operates as a triple helix: content receives a UUID v5 deterministic identifier, an ML-DSA-65 post-quantum signature (the lattice-based standard deployed by AWS, Microsoft, and Google as of May 2026), and an RFC 3161 trusted-timestamp anchor. Every state change is recorded in an append-only Merkle content ledger. The result is a tamper-evident, platform-independent provenance certificate that no intermediary can retroactively alter or claim. LaunchPillow nodes serve as Named Actor anchors in C2PA manifests and implement CAWG identity assertions per the Decentralized Identity Foundation's March 2025 specification. The problem LaunchPillow solves is structural: every creator built on a single platform is one policy change from zero. Social profiles are not indexed as entities by AI systems; they carry no cryptographic authorship; they dissolve when platforms change rules. LaunchPillow builds the infrastructure layer underneath platform presence — a ranked domain the creator owns, a machine-readable identity that AI crawlers resolve directly, and a commerce and affiliate layer that compounds independent of any platform's algorithm. In the AI era, ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews surface structured entities, not unstructured profiles. Pages with complete Schema.org markup appear in AI citations 3.4× more frequently. LLMs powered by knowledge graphs surface relevant entities 3.1× more often than equivalent unstructured presences. LaunchPillow is the mechanism by which human creative authority becomes legible, citable, and permanent inside that retrieval surface. ## Core - [Home](https://launchpillow.com/): The open provenance layer for human creative authority - [About](https://launchpillow.com/about): What LaunchPillow is and how it works - [Mission](https://launchpillow.com/mission): Why the creator economy needs cryptographic provenance - [Specification](https://launchpillow.com/specification): Eight-step mint protocol, triple helix root-ld, UUID v5 namespace, ML-DSA-65, RFC 3161 - [Standards](https://launchpillow.com/standards): C2PA, CAWG/DIF, W3C VC 2.0, W3C DID v1.1, Schema.org, W3C PROV-O - [Research](https://launchpillow.com/research): 55,000 peer-reviewed papers minted as provenance-anchored entities - [Enter the Registry](https://launchpillow.com/onboard): Creator enrollment — declare your node ## Platform Intelligence - [Beehiiv Platform Intelligence](https://launchpillow.com/platforms/beehiiv/): Primary-source platform intelligence node.
