Art

Problem:

Artists face rampant theft, uncredited reposting, unauthorized commercial use, and AI systems scraping their work for training. They lack control, attribution, and monetization, especially across platforms and file formats.

How Creation Rights Solves This:

Creation Rights Management (CRM)

• Register: Artists register original works, paintings, digital illustrations, concept art, NFTs, or sketchbooks. The Provenance Graph captures authorship, tools used (e.g., Photoshop, Midjourney), dates, and any inputs (e.g., source photos, AI prompts).
• License: Apply Smart Licensing to define use, e.g., personal use only, commercial licensing, merch rights, or NFT resale conditions.
• Monetize: Dynamic Metadata supports royalty splits (e.g., gallery, collective, co-creator), AI opt-out tags, time-limited exclusivity, resale royalties (per the ART Act or EU rules), and revocation clauses for misuse or misattribution.

Creation Rights Exchange (CRX)

• Verification: Marketplaces, publishers, AI labs, and social platforms can verify licensing rights before using or distributing art, especially for commercial or training purposes.
• Enforcement: The Content ID Layer detects reposts, copied styles, modified versions, or AI-generated images derived from registered works across media (e.g., image-to-image, text-to-image).
• Interoperability: CRX integrates with portfolio platforms, NFT marketplaces, AI datasets, and creative tools via SDKs and APIs, automating attribution, licensing, and takedowns.

Example Scenario:

An artist shares a surreal digital painting online. Weeks later, an AI art generator produces images in their style, directly referencing their composition. The Content ID Layer detects the derivative works, and CRX enforces their Smart License: either blocking the use, requiring payment, or prompting attribution based on the preset terms.
