We’re a non-profit trying to get a fairer deal for human creators.

Our mission

There is a divide emerging between two types of generative AI companies: those who get the consent of training data providers, and those who don’t, claiming they have no legal obligation to do so.

We believe there are many consumers and companies who would prefer to work with generative AI companies who train on data provided with the consent of its creators.

Fairly Trained exists to make it clear which companies take a more consent-based approach to training, and are therefore treating creators more fairly.

Our certifications

Our first certification is our Licensed Model (L) certification for AI providers. We plan to add more certifications over time.

The L certification can be obtained for any generative AI model that doesn’t use any copyrighted work without a license.

For more information on requirements for Licensed Model certification, see here.
