01 / WHAT IT BUILT
What the company did
ForceField built APIs for verification and real-time detection of fraud, spoofing, deepfakes and cyber attacks in streaming media. Its first product, HashMarq, verified content submissions and labeled them authentic with a badge, establishing a chain of custody through blockchain-based smart contracts that sign and hash media at the point of collection. Founded in 2021 in Red Bank, New Jersey by CEO MC Spano, it sold to enterprise trust-and-safety teams via API and SDK.
