Likeness rights infrastructure

Register the rights.
License the
likeness.

Browse real licensed talent. Generate campaign imagery inside Studio — no commitment upfront. Clear the licence when you're ready to publish.

For Talent & Rights Controllers

Permission, on your terms.

Register your likeness, set the scope you'll license under, and decide which packages you allow. Approve, decline or review every request that arrives. Get paid through Stripe Connect. Nothing moves until you say yes.

For Buyers & Studios

Cleared likeness, defensible by design.

License real humans through structured permission packages. Each cleared use produces a signed, transaction-specific Clearance SID tied to scope, payment and expiry — defensible, auditable, and verifiable long after the campaign ships.

Access to the Registry is invitation and application-based, by intention.

The clearance loop

How clearance moves.

01

Register and verify.

Talent registers a likeness, accepts the Somata Standard Terms, and completes a verification call with admin to confirm identity and authority.

02

Define permissions.

Talent or Rights Controller picks the Instant Clear packages they will allow, sets scope per category, and configures pricing per use.

03

Clearance request and SID issuance.

A Buyer submits a structured Clearance Request. It is evaluated against your permissions, and a transaction-specific signed Clearance SID is issued.

04

Try before you clear.

Generate campaign-ready images of any listed talent inside Somata Studio — free to explore. When the output is right, clear the licence and publish. Every output is logged against a signed Licence Record.

The core artefact

Every cleared use,
a signed record.

Every cleared use produces a Clearance SID — a signed, versioned, transaction-specific permission record. It references the Somata Standard Terms, ties to a specific Buyer, Studio, Campaign, permitted scope and expiry, and remains independently verifiable long after the campaign ships.

Try before you clear

Explore freely. Publish when it's right.

Generate against any listed talent inside Studio at no cost. A Clearance SID is only required at the point of publication — not to explore, not to iterate.

Registry access

Access to the register is by application.

Registry is in private operation. Talent and Rights Controllers apply on one path; Buyers and Studios on another. Each application is reviewed against the Somata Standard Terms before access is granted.
