Collections
Collections at /collections are a lightweight way to organize the anchors you care about into named folders, like playlists for your document proofs. They are separate from on-chain groups: collections are purely organizational, live only in your browser, and never touch the chain.
Collections vs. groups
Groups are an on-chain, multi-wallet construct: members share a contract record and anchor documents under one roof. Collections are the opposite end of the spectrum. They are private to your browser, hold any hashes you like (yours or anyone's), and are meant for sorting and sharing, not for shared authorship.
Creating a collection
On the collections page, choose New Collection, give it a name, an optional description, and pick one of eight colors and eight icons. The card's colored bar and icon make collections easy to tell apart at a glance.
Adding anchors
- By hash: paste a 64-character document hash, with an optional note.
- By file: drop a file and it is hashed locally in your browser, then the hash is added. The file never leaves your device.
- From My Anchors: connect your wallet to pull in your recent anchors with one click.
- From anywhere: the collect button (the folder icon) next to hashes on the verify, anchors, search, and feed pages adds a hash to one or more collections without leaving the page.
Working with a collection
Open a collection to rename it, edit its description, color, and icon, reorder items, add per-item notes, and remove items. Bulk actions cover the whole set: Verify All checks every hash on chain, Generate Report builds a formal verification report, and Export CSV downloads the list.
Sharing and importing
Use Share linkto produce a URL that carries the entire collection, encoded in the link itself. Anyone who opens it sees a read-only view with each hash's verification status and can import the collection into their own browser. You can also Export JSON and import that file from the collections page.
Where it is stored
Collections live only in your browser's local storage. There is no account and nothing is sent to a server: verification reads the public Hiro API directly, like the rest of the app. Clearing site data removes your collections, and they do not sync across devices. A shared link is the way to move a collection somewhere else.
