Credtent connects AI companies with gated, credible training data in a unified marketplace for rights holders, data providers, and AI developers, bringing AI and Creativity together: ethically, legally, and profitably.
Credtent is neutral licensing infrastructure that connects AI companies with rights-cleared, provenance-verified training data, and connects rights holders with a marketplace to license or opt out their work. It sits between content creators and the AI companies that train on their content, handling provenance, contracts, compliance, usage tracking, and royalties. Credtent does not compete with either side, which is why both sides can use it as a neutral registry.
Credtent serves two sides of the AI economy: the rights holders who create content and the AI companies that train on it. For rights holders (publishers, studios, labels, archives, and data providers), it offers a marketplace to license catalogs or opt out entirely. For AI companies, it offers rights-cleared, provenance-verified content with compliance documentation. Credtent is the neutral infrastructure layer between them and competes with neither side.
Publishers, studios, labels, archives, and data providers: list your catalog once and earn on every licensed use. We handle discovery, deal terms, compliance, and royalty distribution.
True today: Licenses include the rights the contracting holders warranted, a named manifest, and a disclosure pack your counsel can use for EU AI Act Art. 53 and CA AB 2013 filings. Those statutes still bind the developer. Indemnity, if any, is only as written in the signed license.
Past use: We can structure a going-forward license and a covenant not to sue over past use from the rights holders who sign, limited to the named works. Neither one binds a rights holder who did not sign, and neither one satisfies the developer's regulatory obligations.

A licensing market is forming because nearly every AI model now faces negotiation, litigation, or regulation over the content it trained on. That creates structural demand for neutral, legal, scalable licensing infrastructure, and an opportunity for rights holders to be paid for content used in AI training. Credtent builds the rails for this market across publishing and text, film and audiovisual, and music, data, and specialized archives.
Books, news, academic, reference: the largest category of high-signal training data on earth.
Underlicensed, legally exposed, and newly critical as video models scale.
Catalog-rich, licensing-mature, actively seeking AI-appropriate deal structures.
Credtent is a multimodal creative registry where rights holders register work across text, audio, video, image, and data, then make it available for AI training or opt it out. It lets rights holders monetize through standardized licensing and usage tracking; it supports creators by delivering a free industry-wide opt-out notice to AI companies, following up on it, and, for subscribers to Opt-Out Premium for Rights Holders, enrolling their works in periodic AI model audits; and it verifies content with provenance tagging and Creative Origin certification, giving auditors a clear chain of custody.
Turn catalogs into recurring licensing revenue. Credtent pays royalties every quarter, and under its standard terms, 85% of revenue goes to creatives, rights holders, and data providers.
Credtent delivers a free industry-wide opt-out notice to AI companies, follows up at 30, 60, and 90 days, and keeps a dated record of every notice, response, and follow-up. Anti-plagiarism licensing terms protect both rights holders and AI licensees from downstream exposure.
Credtent tags content for provenance and offers Creative Origin certification. Together they reduce AI hallucinations, combat deepfakes, and give audiences (and auditors) a clear chain of custody.
Credtent works in three steps. First, rights holders list and certify: they upload catalog metadata, verify ownership, set licensing terms, and Credtent adds provenance tags and Creative Origin certification. Second, AI companies negotiate and license pre-cleared content under standardized terms, with contracts and a disclosure pack. Third, Credtent tracks usage across every licensee and distributes royalties to rights holders on a quarterly cadence.

Writers, musicians, illustrators, filmmakers: Credtent was founded to give you a voice in how AI trains on your work. The opt-out costs nothing, and Credtent does not plan to charge for the free opt-out.
