Before a first date
You do not need to make a big accusation to ask for a little more context. Send a ProofPing before you meet: they record a 10-second live selfie saying a word you choose, and the response expires in an hour.
Step 1
Choose the current-response prompt, then make it easy to send.
Step 2
They record a 10-second live selfie saying the chosen word. No account needed.
They record a 10-second live selfie saying a chosen word. You receive a timestamp and city-level context where available. No recipient account. Expires in one hour.

A simple pre-meetup ritual
Pick a simple word before you send the link. It gives the response a clear, current prompt.
They record a 10-second selfie video saying the word. They do not need to create an account.
Use the timestamp and city-level context as one small input before your next step. The result expires in one hour.
A note you can send
ProofPing is designed to make a reasonable boundary feel normal—not accusatory.
“Quick ask before we meet: can you do a ProofPing? It’s a 10-second live selfie saying a word I choose, just so I can get a current response before we make plans.”
If a friend is planning a similar meetup, forward the wording—not anyone's response or private details.
Useful context, not certainty
ProofPing does not verify identity, run a background check, prove a listing is legitimate, or guarantee anyone's safety.
A short, specific request is often easier to understand than a vague demand to “prove” something. Choosing a word turns the moment into a shared pre-meetup step and gives you a recent response to consider.
Send the link while you are still deciding on a time or place. Pick a word, explain that the response is brief and expires in one hour, then review the timestamp and city-level context alongside the rest of your plans.
It shows that someone sent a current 10-second response to your chosen word. It does not establish a legal identity, confirm every detail they have shared, or guarantee how a meetup will go.
Choose a public place, tell someone you trust where you are going, and keep control of your transportation. A ProofPing is one small checkpoint, not a replacement for your own judgment.
Questions, answered
No. It is a short current-response check, not identity verification, a background check, or a safety guarantee.
The person receiving the request does not need to create an account to record the response.
The response expires automatically after one hour.
Keep it simple: explain that it is a short, current response before you finalize plans. The message above gives you wording you can adapt.
Choose a word. Get a current 10-second response with timestamp and city-level context. It disappears in an hour.
