Problem
Content creators face the ongoing challenge of unauthorized use and theft of their digital content, leading to lost revenue and diminished control over their intellectual property. Existing methods often fail to provide a tamper-proof record of ownership and provenance, making it difficult to enforce copyrights and reclaim earnings.
Solution
Trips offers a blockchain-based IP registry and protection service that empowers creators to secure and manage their digital assets. The platform's "Stamp & Store" technology creates tamper-proof digital files, or TCIs, that record copyrights on an immutable ledger, establishing a clear and verifiable record of content ownership. By connecting their content platforms to Trips, creators can automatically generate these TCIs for existing and future uploads, ensuring continuous IP protection. Trips also provides tools to track content usage, manage IP assets, and access support for infringement escalations, enabling creators to reclaim lost revenues and prevent future unauthorized exploitation.
Target Audience
Trips primarily targets content creators on platforms like YouTube and TikTok who are seeking to protect their intellectual property, track content usage, and monetize their work effectively.
