Every signal read is consistent with the house’s production for this model. Stamp, stitching and hardware agree with the registry for the stated year.
How a record is made
First, the item
is photographed
The owner photographs the item in the Trucheck app: the whole piece, its stamps, its hardware and its code.
Then a specialist
examines it
A specialist in the item’s category reads every photograph against nine signals and the house’s registry. Tools measure; the specialist decides.
The finding
is recorded
Authentic, suspect or counterfeit. The specialist’s finding, the signals and the date are fixed under one code.
Then anyone
can open it
The code travels with the item: on the certificate, the PDF and the listing. Whoever holds it reads the same record, without an account.

No account needed. The same record for everyone who holds the code.
A person makes
every finding.
On Trucheck, software measures and people decide. Specialists who know each house examine every item, and the record states their finding.
Specialists by category
Bags and leather, watches and jewellery are each examined by specialists in that category. An item goes to someone who knows its house, its years and the copies made of it.
Tools measure, people decide
AI-assisted tools read stitch spacing, stamp depth and serial formats faster than the eye. They point to what deserves a closer look. They never sign a finding.
No guessing
When the photographs cannot settle it, the specialist records the item as suspect, says what was missing and recommends an in-person inspection.
Three findings
Only an authentic finding is issued as a certificate. Every other finding is recorded as exactly what it is, and the record says so first.

What sellers and buyers ask
What is a Trucheck code?
A Trucheck code is a six-character identifier in the format TC-XXXX-X printed on every certificate of authentication. It points to the report issued for a specific item.
Where do I find my certificate ID?
The code appears on the certificate PDF, in the Trucheck app, and on any link the seller has shared. It is the only piece of information required to open the report.
How does Trucheck authenticate a luxury item?
Every item is examined by a specialist in its category. The specialist reads the submitted images against nine independent signals — lot code, stitching, hardware stamping, packaging finish, hologram layer, microfiber texture, weight, edge paint, and interior debossing — and the manufacturer's authoritative registry. AI-assisted tools help with measurement; the finding is always the specialist's.
What do Authentic, Suspect, and Counterfeit mean?
Authentic confirms a full match against the registry and all nine signals. Suspect indicates that one or more signals are ambiguous and an in-person examination is recommended. Counterfeit means at least one signal falls outside the manufacturer's known tolerances.
Is Trucheck affiliated with the luxury houses it authenticates?
No. Trucheck is independent and not affiliated with any brand. A certificate records an advisory expert opinion based on the images submitted, not a brand-issued guarantee.
How long does a verification take?
Most certificates are issued within twenty seconds of upload. Categories that require a second pass — vintage watches, hand-finished leathers — may take longer.
Can a certificate be shared with a buyer?
Yes. Every certificate has a direct URL that opens without an account. Sellers commonly include it in listings on Vestiaire Collective, Grailed, and Chrono24.
