REG registeredowner.info Ownership register

The papers travel with the thing.

Everything a registered object carries, and the documents besides — with a handover that moves them to the next owner instead of leaving them in your filing cabinet and their glovebox.

01 Certificate

A register of record for property that came with paperwork

Every entry is dated on receipt, chained to the entry before it, and held under a two-sided transfer that neither party can move alone. The documents are encrypted individually and released only to the owner of record.

Documents, encrypted individually

Each document is sealed under its own key, and that key is wrapped by a hardware-backed key that never leaves the vault.

A custody log that shows tampering

Each event is chained to its predecessor. Editing an old entry, removing one, or backdating one breaks the chain visibly rather than silently.

Two-factor, not optional

A text message proves you hold a number. That is enough to publish a contact page and is not enough to open a folder of somebody's titles.

02 Schedule of charges

$29per registered object, per five years. Transfers $10 each.

What each register costs, and what it is for

One account covers all three. Nothing renews by itself — at five years you decide again, and until you do the page keeps answering.

03 Custody and security

How the documents are held

Stated precisely, because the alternative is a reassuring sentence that turns out to mean nothing.

MeasureHow it is doneWhat that means for you
Encryption at restAES-256-GCM, a separate key for every document, each wrapped by RSA-OAEP-256 inside a managed vaultThe wrapping key never leaves the vault, so a copied storage account yields nothing
Who can decryptThe owner of record, and the service acting on their behalfNot the storage account and not a stolen backup. Key rotation re-wraps rather than orphaning a document
End-to-end encryptedNo — and we would rather say so here than be discovered saying it laterHanding documents to the next owner requires that we can read them. Anyone offering both is describing something that does not exist
Custody logHash-chained and append-only; every event carries the hash of the one before itEditing, deleting, reordering or backdating an entry breaks the chain visibly
Access proofTwo-factor on the account, required at this tier and not at the othersA telephone number alone is never enough to open stored documents

The custody log evidences what was held and when. It does not establish legal title, and no entry here changes what any government register believes.

04 Transfer

The handover, in order

Money changes hands when the object does. $10 per transfer, and only on completion.

  1. You offer the transferNaming the recipient. The record, its photographs, its documents and its history are listed in the offer so both sides see the same thing.
  2. They acceptNeither side can move the record alone, and neither can quietly reverse it afterwards. An offer nobody accepts lapses on its own after thirty days.
  3. The register updatesThe documents and the custody history become theirs. Your contact details come off the record in the same step.
  4. The chain records itThe transfer is written as a chained event, so the next owner inherits a history that shows every hand the object passed through.

05 Limits

What this register is, precisely

The name invites a larger claim than the product makes, so here is the smaller, true one.

Registering a vehicle here does not affect your state's DMV. A transfer in this register is not a legal conveyance. What you get is a dated, tamper-evident account of what was held and when, and a way to hand the paperwork over without emailing scans around.

We do not adjudicate ownership. In a dispute we can show the custody log and who held the record at each point. We hold nothing in escrow and take no side.

Possession of the telephone number still governs the slug. Documents stored here never override a failed possession proof — that rule is what keeps the whole register from being talked out of somebody's hands.

06 Disclosure

A public page, or a private relay

Chosen per record, and changeable after something has already gone missing.

Public

The page shows what you put on it — a name, an email, a number. Nothing is displayed that you did not enter yourself.

Private

The page shows a message form and nothing else: not your name, not your number, not whether the record belongs to anybody at all.

You decide the reply

The finder's message reaches you. You choose whether to answer, by email or by text, and whether to offer a reward. They learn nothing about you unless you tell them.
