Deep-tech studio · Sweden

We build tools that make the truth provable — sealing reality at the source, and making it simple to verify.

WHAT WE DO

Proof, built into the moment of capture

We work on the same problem from three angles: making a record, proving it's real, and putting it where it matters.

01

Forensic capture

Sealing reality at the source — so a recording can't be quietly doctored after the fact.

02

Cryptographic verification

Proving a file is the unaltered original, with checks anyone can independently reproduce.

03

Accountability tooling

Getting provable evidence into the hands of journalists, courts, and watchdogs.

LVSR Systems is our first product. It won't be our last.

PROJECTS

What we're building right now

Working prototype
Flagship

LVSR Systems ↗

The Hub — a sealed evidence unit that mounts on the drones organisations already fly. Footage is encrypted and signed the instant it's captured, with an unbroken cryptographic chain of custody from the field to the courtroom. We don't build drones; we make any drone's footage provable.

More to come

Forensics and provenance leave a lot of unsolved problems. LVSR is where we start — not where we stop.

CURRENT STATUS

Where we actually are

No vapourware theatre. Here's the honest state of play — green is done, amber is in motion, grey is next.

THE PLAN

Short range, long range

Build the proof first, prove it works, then scale it. We don't build drones — we make any drone's footage provable.

Short range · next 12 months

Make it real and show it

  • Finish the Hub: hardened software in a sealed, printed enclosure.
  • First sealed capture in real flight — filmed, verified, published.
  • Integrate with Pixhawk / ArduPilot fleets others already fly.
  • Engage Almi and apply for early innovation funding (Vinnova).
  • Line up the first partner and a friendly pilot user.
Long range · 1–5 years

Become the proof standard

  • Productise the authenticity-audit registry and certificates.
  • A Hub on every fleet — police, inspection, accountability.
  • Integrate with established drone and sensor platforms.
  • Become the provenance layer courts and newsrooms recognise — C2PA-compatible.
  • Grow Livsro Group beyond LVSR into adjacent forensic tooling.
WHO'S BEHIND IT

The company is the point — you don't have to read any of this. But if you're curious who's behind the keyboard, spin the cube.
