Everything owners ask us

We find the right buyers for your footage, prepare your library for them, handle every exchange and bring each offer to you. You decide and you sign. We are paid a commission only when you are paid.

Companies developing AI video and multimodal models, usually through specialist licensing platforms. Every deal is made under a contract that sets how the footage may be used.

We approach the specialist platforms that license footage to AI developers, and choose for each library based on its subjects, formats and the terms on offer. We tell you which platform before any introduction, and never share your material with one you have not approved.

Scraping takes content without permission or payment. Licensing is the opposite: it is your choice, you are paid, and you approve the terms before anything is used.

Real-world footage with clear rights: wildlife and nature, aerial, underwater, timelapse, documentary, people in motion, interviews with signed releases, and animation. Raw rushes and outtakes count too. See the footage buyers ask for.

Yes. Speech and audio collections, such as radio, podcast and dubbing archives, can also interest AI developers, including in French, Arabic and Darija. Tell us what you hold.

There is no fixed minimum. Larger libraries are easier to place, but small specialist collections, such as rare species or underwater footage, can still interest buyers. Tell us what you have and we will be straight with you.

Yes. A licence gives a buyer the right to use footage for AI training under agreed terms. Ownership and copyright stay with you.

You do, directly with the platform. We cannot sign on your behalf, and nothing is offered to anyone without your approval.

A licence for AI training gives the right to train models on the footage, for the period and volume it sets, in return for a fixed fee or a share of revenue. You can ask to exclude showing or reselling your clips, anyone’s likeness, and any collections you want to keep back. See what a licence covers.

Yes. You choose which subjects, years or collections are offered, and you can ask for exclusions in each licence.

That depends on the terms of each licence, which you review before signing. Licences can be non-exclusive, and you can keep any footage out of a deal.

Not necessarily. Some stock agreements are exclusive, and some already cover AI licensing. We go through your existing agreements with you first, so that nothing you sign conflicts with them.

Buyers usually need a signed release for anyone recognisable. We go through what you hold before anything is offered, and footage without releases can often be left out.

We only share material you approve, with the platforms you approve. You can ask a platform for a non-disclosure agreement before sending anything.

A percentage of what you receive from each deal we introduce: from 15% down to 6% as deals get larger. See our commission. If nothing sells, you owe nothing.

None. No retainer, no set-up fee and no charge for our time. If nothing sells, you owe nothing.

It depends on the footage, its rights and the terms of each licence. Public reports put rates between $60 and $240 an hour of footage, but many deals pay less. Try our estimate for a quick range, and after the first call we give you an honest view of what to expect.

Each platform pays on its own schedule, which you see before you sign. Payment can take several months after you deliver your files.

The platform pays you directly. We then invoice our commission on what you received. We never hold your money.

We take your library to the next suitable platform. Rejections cost you nothing.

You can approach platforms yourself. We take all of it off your hands, from first contact to signed deal: comparing platforms, preparing your library for review, the paperwork, the back-and-forth, and any rejections along the way. None of it costs you anything. You pay us only once you have been paid, and you still review and sign every deal yourself.

Getting set up with a platform can take a few weeks, depending on how organised your archive is. Deals and payments can then take months and follow each platform’s own schedule, which you see before you sign. See every step.

English and French, by email, phone and video call.

No. We work entirely by email, phone and video call, with owners anywhere in the world.

No. We don’t give legal advice, and for a large deal we recommend independent legal advice before you sign.
