Fair compensation and credit for content owners in the age of AI
ATTRIBUTION TECHNOLOGY FOR GENERATIVE AI
August 6, 2024
ProRata invents generative AI attribution technology to compensate and credit content owners while facilitating fairness and fact
Bill Gross, the inventor of search pay-per-click, invents AI pay-per-use
VISION
Our mission is to ensure that publishers and creators are fairly credited and compensated by generative AIs.
RECENT PRESS
ProRata in the news
THE PROBLEM
By crawling and repackaging copyrighted material without proper credit or compensation, AI poses an existential threat to content owners.
Creators aren’t getting proper credit for the value of their work.
Content owners aren’t sharing in the financial upside of generative AI.
Publishers are losing web traffic as users turn away from traditional search links.
To enable AI pay-per-use, we’ve invented technology that can analyze a generative response and fairly attribute each source of contributing content.
Creators must receive full attribution whenever their work is used by AIs.
Content owners must receive a share of the income their material generates.
Publishers and creators must be promoted, not hidden from view.
Multi-dimensional attribution algorithms determine fractional contribution of content used to generate a response.
Multi-modal applications cover generative text, images, music, and video.
Available as-a-service, scaleable for both small and large gen-AI systems.

“There is an urgent need and opportunity to align the incentives of AI platforms and publishers in the interests of quality journalism, the reader and respect for intellectual property. ProRata’s approach – identifying source material and sharing resulting revenues between technology companies that use it and publishers that create it – can help develop a healthier and fairer information ecosystem that encourages accurate and authoritative journalism and rightly rewards those who produce it.”

“ProRata is working to solve one of the most important issues in AI: how can LLMs properly credit and compensate the publishers of the work they depend on. With this partnership, we are working with them to establish first principles for media and AI – in a way that values, respects, and protects the exceptional talent and intense work of journalists and creators. We hope to see this approach to permissions, content controls, clear attribution, and fair value become the industry norm.”
