Loti AI

Facial recognition for non-consensual media protection

Overview

Loti AI provides facial recognition-driven privacy protection to help individuals check whether their intimate images or videos have been shared online without consent. Users upload a photo of themselves, and the service searches the internet to identify any matches of their private media, sending alerts if it finds published content and offering help to remove it. The product is offered as an affordable, subscription-based service that prioritizes ease of use and rapid response to privacy breaches. Compared with broader cybersecurity or image search tools, Loti AI focuses specifically on non-consensual intimate media and the accompanying takedown support, rather than a general surveillance or advertising-driven model. The company aims to give individuals a simple, reliable way to protect their online image and reclaim control over their private media.

Simplify's Take

What believers are saying

  • April 2026 Interchange targets AI licensing budgets, not just takedown spending.
  • January and March 2026 Underscore Talent deals validate creator and agency demand.
  • The $23 million total funding war chest supports hiring, partnerships, and scaling.

What critics are saying

  • Meta, TikTok, Instagram, and Facebook control enforcement channels that Loti depends on.
  • Resemble.ai, Vermillio, and Copytrack attack Loti's markets with broader or cheaper tooling.
  • If deepfake demand cools or platforms block integrations, Loti's consumer takedown model stalls.

What makes Loti AI unique

  • Loti's Watchtower combines facial, voice, and deepfake detection with automated takedowns.
  • Interchange, launched April 30, 2026, adds consented AI licensing and compensation infrastructure.
  • Underscore Talent partnership gives Loti agency-level distribution across global creator rosters.
