AcreSeal

The Grid-Safety Network of Record

311 tells a city a pothole exists. AcreSeal binds a landowner's report to the specific pole it concerns and seals both in one tamper-evident chain — the civic reporting layer and the compliance system of record, fused.

Illustrative example — synthetic data, no real report or landowner

Each link is a SHA-256 hash of its payload plus the previous link's hash. Change any earlier element and every hash after it changes — the break is detectable by anyone, without access to AcreSeal's internal systems. On real records this is independently checkable at /verify.

Why this is one product, not two

Civic reporting alone

Tells a utility a concern exists — but not against which asset, and with no tamper-evident proof.

Inspection software alone

Tracks the utility's own crews — but has no public ingress for what the public sees between inspections.

AcreSeal — fused

Binds the public report to the physical asset and seals both in one independently verifiable chain of custody.
