Licensing Protocol

Overview

Protect & manage your copyrights

Licensing

Managing copyrights

Licensing is the method used by businesses and individuals when requesting the use of copyrights owned by someone else. In most cases, middle-entities take up to 50% (or more) of the fees/ownership when a creator’s content is used by production companies i.e. games, movies and advertisements. Canistore’s Licensing protocol simplifies the process by facilitating agreements B2B/B2C

Copyrights

Protect & prove ownership

Canistore empowers creators to licence and securely store their content on the blockchain. This streamlined process not only includes timestamping for indisputable proof of ownership but also integrates a notice of rights. In jurisdictions where certification from a local copyrights office is mandatory, users have the option to upload and store their documentation alongside their media on the blockchain.

  • Protect ownership
  • Prove ownership on demand
  • Storage fully on chain

Community

Direct to consumer

Due to an outdated infrastructure monopolised by big tech, content creators find their following fragmented across multiple platforms. This situation directly impacts progress, as creators face challenges when migrating their hard-earned fanbase from one platform to another without losing followers via conversion rates. Canistore normalises the natural relationship between creator and community.
