Under construction · v0.4 internal build
We follow the meaning, not the copy.
Finding a verbatim copy is easy. The hard part is tying a rewritten, translated, cropped or reformatted piece back to the same original work. Semantic Copyright is building the monitoring layer for exactly that — across text, image and audio.
The matching engine and the crawler are running. The dashboard and reporting layer are next.
In progress
Four pieces we are finishing before launch
-
Matching engine
We fingerprint a work by what it means rather than by the words it uses. A summary, a paraphrase or a translation still resolves back to the same source.
-
Crawler network
News sites, blogs, publishing platforms and open archives are swept on a schedule. New matches land in your queue with their evidence already attached.
-
Evidence file
Every finding is stored with a screenshot, an archive link, timestamps and the reason it matched. We hand over a file, not an accusation — in a shape your counsel can use as is.
-
Takedown workflow
Platform notices, host correspondence and DMCA requests are tracked in one place. Which notice went where, and what stage it is at, stays visible.
“You write a piece once. The internet republishes it a hundred times under other names. The job is tracing it back in a way that holds up.” Semantic Copyright — founding note
Stay posted
Hear about it the day we open
We have not built a newsletter yet — it is on the same list as everything else. Until then email is the shortest path: send us a line with “Notify me” in the subject and we will come back to you at launch.
If you are a rights holder with something live right now — work republished without permission, credit stripped, a takedown being ignored — we can look at the beta list. A short description of the situation is enough.
