Overview
Troveo AI connects video creators with AI companies needing authentic training content by licensing clips. Creators upload their videos; Troveo negotiates, licenses, and pays out (often instantly) with no upfront costs, and creators retain ownership; a Do Not Scrape registry protects rights. It differentiates itself by focusing on genuine creator-made video, straightforward agreements, built-in protection tools, and zero upfront cost. The goal is to help creators earn passive income from licensing while making it easy for AI firms to source training material.
