License Your Content
in the AI Age

Every document you sign embeds machine-readable licensing terms. AI companies discover your terms automatically. You control scraping, RAG, and training - separately. Powered by C2PA and built on content provenance infrastructure.

Three Tiers, Three Use Cases

Control AI access to your content at three distinct levels, each aligned to how AI companies actually use content.

Bronze

Crawling & Scraping

Controls broad read-only access: search indexing, price comparisons, web archiving, and general AI data collection.

  • Web crawlers (Googlebot, GPTBot)
  • Training data collection
  • RSS / feed aggregation
  • robots.txt-aligned signals

Silver

RAG & Retrieval

Controls AI-powered search and retrieval-augmented generation pipelines: the largest current use case.

  • RAG grounding data
  • Real-time AI search
  • Perplexity, SearchGPT, Bing AI
  • Enterprise AI assistants

Gold

Training & Fine-tuning

Controls use of your content for AI model training and fine-tuning, the highest-value licensing category.

  • LLM pre-training datasets
  • Fine-tuning & RLHF
  • Model evaluation benchmarks
  • Synthetic data generation

How It Works

From your first signed document to a machine-readable rights infrastructure in four steps.

Sign

Publish content with Encypher. Every document gets a C2PA 2.3-compliant signature with your rights_resolution_url embedded in the manifest.

Publish Profile

Set your Bronze / Silver / Gold terms once. They apply to all signed content automatically.

AI Discovers

AI crawlers resolve the rights URL and receive W3C ODRL-compatible terms in RSL 1.0 format, machine-readable, no manual review required.

License or Notice

As AI companies adopt provenance checking, compliant ones license through the coalition. Non-compliant use is documented to support a formal infringement notice.

Enforcement

Strengthen the Case for
Willful Infringement

AI companies can no longer claim ignorance. When your rights profile is embedded in every signed document, using your content without a license is knowingly ignoring machine-readable terms.

You can issue notice at any time; Encypher's notice package (coming soon) assembles the evidence record: a tamper-evident record of when you published the content and that your machine-readable terms were available.

  • Immutable notice with tamper-evident evidence chain
  • Delivery confirmation and timestamped proof of receipt
  • Documentation of marked content in their pipeline
  • Chain-of-custody from signing through detection

Formal Notice Package

Coming Soon

Issued to a specific AI company. Contact sales to discuss early access.

  • Cryptographically-backed notice letter
  • Verification API access instructions for recipient
  • Evidence of marked content in training pipeline

Evidence Package

Coming Soon

Complete litigation-support package for any infringement claim. Contact sales to discuss early access.

  • Merkle tree proofs: sentence-level provenance
  • Chain-of-custody documentation
  • Tamper-evident manifest records
  • Formal notice delivery records
  • Timeline reconstruction
  • Cryptographic verification instructions for counsel
  • Export in standard litigation support formats

Evidence for Counsel

Evidence Packages
in Minutes

The evidence package (coming soon) will assemble a complete litigation-support record for any infringement claim. Merkle proofs establish sentence-level provenance from the moment of signing, and every event in the chain is cryptographically linked and independently verifiable.

Revenue model: You keep 100% of your licensing revenue; AI companies pay Encypher a separate verification fee. Coalition membership is opt-in via a separate agreement, and Encypher-brokered coalition deals share a portion with Encypher, with exact terms in your coalition agreement. Learn about the Coalition.

For AI Companies

Access machine-readable licensing terms for every Encypher-signed publisher. Build your provenance infrastructure once. Stay compliant across the entire ecosystem.

Quote Integrity API

Verify AI attribution accuracy before publishing. Prove whether a cited quote is accurate, approximate, or hallucinated.

RSL 1.0 & W3C ODRL Compatible

GET /public/rights/organization/{id} returns RSL 1.0 XML and W3C ODRL-compatible JSON. Drop into existing rights infrastructure without format conversion.

Coalition Licensing

Single agreement covers all coalition publishers. Structured licensing at scale, not 1:1 negotiations.
