Today we’re excited to share something we’ve been quietly building:

Handshake

A simple way to prove someone was exactly where they said they were.

The problem hiding in plain sight

Auditors are expected to verify, firsthand, that processes, environments, and controls meet required standards. Being physically on-site isn’t optional — it’s fundamental.

But what happens when that trust is questioned?

When you can’t prove an audit was conducted on-site, the risks are real:

• Missed non-conformities
• Reduced audit quality
• Reputational damage
• Even suspicion of collusion

And this isn’t a fringe issue anymore — it’s happening more often than many realize.

Why old “proof” no longer works

For years, a quick photo at the audit kickoff and closing meetings was enough.

Not anymore.

With generative AI, images can be created, timestamps can be altered, and “proof” can be faked. At the same time, ghost audits and breeze audits are getting harder to ignore.

If trust is the foundation of certification, that foundation is under pressure.

A better way: Handshake

Handshake started as a feature inside ActiveCheck. But the problem was bigger than a feature — it needed a dedicated solution.

So we made it simple:

Scan.
Scan back.
Done.

That’s it.

A fast, reliable way to verify presence — without disrupting the audit process.

Don’t wait for trust to become the issue

We know certification bodies, schemes, and auditors are mission-driven. The work you do matters.

Handshake helps protect that work.

Because small gaps in verification can quickly become big questions of trust.

Try it for yourself

If you’re running audits, managing a scheme, or care about protecting the integrity of your process — now’s the time to take a look.
