Helping content rights owners across the globe unlock new revenue streams while contributing responsibly to AI development. We bring transparency and commercial clarity to a rapidly evolving AI landscape.
Why Protege

Ethical by Design

We operate with built-in safeguards that scale: structured licensing, clear data provenance, and privacy-by-default standards across all data sources.

Governance-Level Trust

We bring clear standards, documented controls, and rigor shaped by operating in highly regulated environments. Our experience with highly sensitive data such as medical records informs how we approach complex content across industries.

At the Forefront of AI Licensing

We work directly with leading foundation model labs to define sustainable licensing standards for AI. By structuring agreements that align model builders and rights holders, we unlock opportunities that previously stalled.

End-to-End AI Data Fulfillment

From face-masking and precision clipping to quality control and cross source dataset construction, we handle the full complexity of preparing video for AI training. Our cataloged and indexed content enables streamlined selection and rapid deployment, often fulfilling active opportunities in under a month.

Aggregation That Drives Repeat Value

By combining content across 150+ global providers, we construct datasets that power multiple AI buyers and evolving model use cases. Partners benefit from repeat deal inclusion and incremental revenue without standing up a dedicated AI business unit.

Advancing Responsible Innovation

We serve as connective tissue between rights holders, leading AI companies, and researchers shaping the future of video. Partners participate in frontier innovation and monetization in a way that is ethical, commercially sound, and capital efficient.
