About Us

COPY-IDENT

At COPY-IDENT, our mission is to provide user-friendly tools for image copyright monitoring and enforcement, helping every content creator discover their stolen images online, protect their online photos, and assert their rights easily and safely. Our turnkey solutions provide effortless evidence collection for IP cases, automated screen shot evidence, and legaltech for copyright enforcement.

Our goal is to alleviate concerning legal and financial circumstances by offering options that are both sustainable and user-friendly. Copyright enforcement for photographers has historically only been available to those with privileged access to personalized AI image monitoring and pricey photo copyright protection legal services. COPY-IDENT remedies this, however, with a reverse image search for photographers, inexpensive copyright infringement detection - including a free tier [as an option for freelancers?], coupled with industry leading commission-based image rights enforcement.

What’s more, we assume all costs associated with legal proceedings. Only in the event that we recover revenue from image theft does COPY-IDENT retain a commission.

This Is How We’ll Enforce Your Image Rights

There’s no risk and no advance payment.

Rights-Clearing

Our enforcement partners reach out to the image user for rights clearance. Once a license can be provided we close the case - if not, the claim will be enforced.

Compensation / Post Settlements

If our post-licensing offer is unsuccessful, then we’ll demand payment of compensation from the image user within the scope of commercial debt collection.

Out-Of-Court Settlement

If the infringing party still doesn’t respond to our requests, then one of our legal partners will send them a formal written reminder to pay the claim for damages.

Legal Enforcement

If all these actions are unsuccessful, then our partner attorneys will bring your claims to court.

Fair approach

No risk, no hidden fees!

Monitoring up to 500 pictures with our highest-accuracy image finder is free. And our enforcement services are always free for you – we only receive a commission if you get paid.

You keep 55% of any compensation or post-licensing fees and we have you covered for all legal steps we might take on your behalf.

Of course, billing is completely automatic to save you valuable time. You never have to pay in advance.

Superior Service

In Comparison

Without Help

On your own it is almost impossible to find all copyright infringements on the internet. You will only find infringements after tedious and extensive searching. In legal proceedings, you can lose without expert knowledge – even if you are in the right.

With COPY-IDENT

You stay in control of your case through the entire process, from the initial image search to legal enforcement. Our team does all the hard work for you.

With Your Own Lawyer

A lawyer knows the legal procedures, but cannot process & monitor hundreds of cases simultaneously like an IT system. If you lose, you usually bear the costs of the case and the lawyer. If you win, you may upset a potential client.

Fair approach

No financial or legal risk

Monitoring up to 500 pictures with our highest-accuracy image finder is free. And our enforcement services are always free for you – we only receive a commission if you get paid.
