What is LiveAutographs?

Until now, if you wanted to meet, interact, ask a question or purchase an autographed item from a sports, film, music or television star, you had few options.

  • You could hope to win a contest
  • You could wait in long lines, backstage, or outside of a stadium or hotel and hope the celebrity passes by and maybe stops to talk to you
  • You could travel to a signing event, then stand in another long line to hopefully have the celebrity look up from the table as they autograph a piece of merchandise
  • You could buy from a dealer, who might or might not be reputable – but you would never be able to meet the celebrity or be assured the autograph was truly authentic
  • You could go online and buy an item over the internet, but again no guarantees that you won’t end up with a counterfeit product


LiveAutographs breaks the barrier between you and your favorite star or athlete!

LiveAutographs moves “meet & greets” and “autograph signings” into the homes of fans.  LiveAutographs removes the restrictions of time, travel and luck – allowing fans to ask questions, interact with their favorite artist, television or film star or athlete, while purchasing authentic autographed merchandise.   Fans from all over the world now have the opportunity to reach out to their favorite celebrity from the comfort of their own home.

Over a three-year period, FBI and IRS investigations reveal nationwide black market dealing in hundreds of millions of dollars
in counterfeit sports and celebrity memorabilia.
 

“As detailed in the Government charging documents, autograph sports and celebrity memorabilia is a $1 billion a year
market in the United States – Industry experts estimate that upwards of 50% (and perhaps as much as 90%)
of the items comprising this market are counterfeit.  Typically, the individuals who traffic in this black market obtain
memorabilia containing forged autographs of celebrities, which are then inaccurately certified as genuine.”

LiveAutographs enables fans to interact with their favorite celebrity, and… for the first time, our technology allows fans to witness the experience of the signing from their personal computer and be guaranteed they are receiving truly authentic autographed merchandise.  The signing will be captured on video and authenticated with a security-encrypted barcode on an accompanying DVD that will match the barcode on the signed memorabilia, protecting both the fan and the celebrity.
