Openlicense AI is a licensing platform that connects content owners with AI companies. We enable ethically sourced AI.
Current Status
Platform is live. Partnered with Perkins Coie, a top US legal firm with AI law expertise, for development of the legal licensing framework. Big data is coming from one of the major image hosting platforms. The core IP is protected.
Problem or Opportunity
Generative AI need massive amounts of high-quality data which most often happens to be under copyright or other forms of IP protection. AI companies have no choice but to take legal and reputational risks by scraping internet. Content owners are deeply frustrated with such practices. Currently there are no scalable means that would allow them to participate in the distribution of value created by the generative AI technology.
Solution (product or service)
We combine internet scraping with a sophisticated legal framework giving the content owners scalable means for licensing of their content to AI companies and providing them with equitable rewards. More relevant and popular content receives more royalties - very similar monetization dynamics to traditional monetization.
Business model
Commission on royalty transactions.
