Verified UGC photo campaigns

User-generated content campaigns usually trust screenshots, hashtags, or manual review queues. That breaks at scale and invites fraud. Synquesta’s verified photo flow adds a per-participant verification code that must appear physically in the frame, optional reference imagery to confirm the right product or pack shot, and AI evaluation against a written brief.

The result is UGC you can show advertisers as a live pipeline: brief in → photo with code → scored outcome → reward from escrow—without an agency re-tagging hundreds of submissions.

Real marketing parallels

• FMCG & retail — “Show the product in action” with a packaging reference photo; clean UGC for social ads without a studio shoot.
• Fashion & lifestyle — “Outfit of the day” with a branded sticker or handwritten code visible; builds lookbook-style content from real customers.
• Tech & builders — “Show your setup” desk tours with a handwritten code; high share rate in dev communities (battlestation culture).
• Light proof-of-purchase — receipt or packaging in frame plus a verification code as a demo for future cashback mechanics.

Why brands use it

• Code-in-frame proves the photo was taken for this campaign, not recycled from a stock library or generator.
• Reference images anchor product identity when the brief requires a specific SKU or pack.
• Public task text and scoring rubric are set before play; participants know what “good” looks like.
• Top submissions can share a performance-weighted pool—useful for ranked UGC contests.

Campaign sketch

Write a clear photo brief (what must appear besides the verification code), add an optional reference product image, and set your scoring scale. Participants request their personal code, write it on paper, shoot one clear photo, upload it, and submit. The judge checks brief compliance, code visibility, reference presence when configured, and common AI-edit signals.

Start with a symbolic reward pool to demo mechanics to stakeholders, then scale token escrow once legal and treasury workflows are ready.
