AI Authentication Framework Accessible to Resellers

Valued & Vaulted is powered by advanced AI authentication technology, enabling approved luxury resellers to complete their own authentications directly within the BAO platform.

• AI-driven authentication for luxury handbags, trainers, and accessories
• Resellers authenticate items in-house using guided digital capture
• No specialist hardware required operates via standard mobile devices
• Consistent, scalable authentication across locations and teams

Authentication is delivered within a Birmingham Assay Office-designed framework, ensuring consistency, traceability, and trust at scale.

NFC Collect Cards – Proof That Travels With the Item

Each authenticated item can be issued with a Valued & Vaulted NFC Collect Card, sold with the product:

• Secure NFC card uniquely linked to the item
• Tap‑to‑verify authenticity via mobile phone
• Confirms Birmingham Assay Office authentication and digital record
• Transfers with the item if resold or gifted

This creates a physical‑digital bridge, ensuring authenticity remains attached to the item throughout its lifecycle.

The Digital Vault – Luxury Ownership Reimagined

Customers purchasing authenticated items gain access to their personal Digital Vault, where they can:

• Securely store authenticated luxury items
• Track current market value over time
