RESUMESCAN PROVerified Resume badge

PVAIO_BADGE

One <script> tag. Every candidate who hands you a PVAIO-signed resume gets a verifiable green check on your careers page. No API keys, no CORS, no backend.

STATES

Valid ledger, strict-mode policy

Valid ledger, normal-mode policy (default)

Valid ledger, permissive-mode policy

Root not found — nobody claims this resume

Ledger exists but signature is invalid

60-second embed

1. Drop once on your careers page

<script src="https://octodrives.com/api/badge/embed.js" defer></script>

2. Wherever you list a verified candidate

<span data-pvaio-root="PASTE_MERKLE_ROOT_HERE"></span>

The span turns into a clickable badge linking to /verify/<root>. You can add data-pvaio-label="Senior Eng" to override the left side. Dynamic content (SPA, list virtualization) works automatically — we watch for new matching elements.

Markdown / GitHub README

direct SVG URL

![PVAIO verified](https://octodrives.com/api/badge/PASTE_MERKLE_ROOT_HERE)

Works from any Markdown renderer. The SVG is cached at the CDN for 1 week per root — when a candidate regenerates their optimization (new root) they get a new badge URL.

Machine-readable JSON

GET /api/badge/<root>?format=json

{
  "state": "verified",
  "policyMode": "strict",
  "fabricatedCount": 0,
  "verifyUrl": "https://octodrives.com/verify/<root>",
  "label": "resume",
  "pillText": "PVAIO strict",
  "pillColor": "#15803d"
}

ATS integrations can use this to surface PVAIO verdicts natively without parsing SVG. The full cryptographic envelope (signature, merkleRoot, resumeHash, jobHash) is available at /api/optimized/verify?root=<root>.

The badge is cryptographic, not cosmetic. It turns green only when the candidate's exported PDF/DOCX carries a Merkle root that rebuilds correctly and whose HMAC signature validates under this deployment's signing key. Tampering invalidates the badge immediately; regenerating under a new policy produces a different Merkle root and therefore a different badge.
