Use cases

Typestamp is useful anywhere you need to verify that real effort went into a piece of writing - not just that a finished text exists.

Job applications

Hiring teams can ask candidates to write cover letters or short-answer responses through a reference link. The resulting proof shows the full keystroke history and time invested, making it easy to distinguish genuine engagement from a text dropped in from elsewhere.

Academic submissions

Students can submit essays and written assignments as Typestamp proofs. Instructors get a verifiable record of the writing process - including pace, pauses, pasted content, and edits. This is better than getting just the finished document.

Freelance work

Writers, journalists, and copywriters can attach a Typestamp proof to their deliverables to demonstrate that the content was typed out in full. This is useful when clients want evidence of the work behind the words, not just the words themselves.

Freelancers in platforms like Upwork or Fiverr can include Typestamp proofs in their proposals to stand out from other freelancers.

Contracts and legal documents

For situations where the composition of a written statement matters, a Typestamp proof provides a timestamped, auditable record that the text was produced keystroke by keystroke rather than pasted in.

Publishing and editorial

Editors and publications can use references to scope proofs to a specific assignment, ensuring that a submission represents effort directed at that piece and cannot be recycled from another context.

Social media written posts

Thought leaders can use Typestamp proofs to improve the credibility of their content on social media. If someone has made a provable effort in writing a piece of content, readers are more likely to read and trust it.

Manual cold outreach

Including a proof link in your manual cold outreach demonstrates to the recipient that you took the time to manually write a message for them. This would likely increase response rates.
