No usable source links are available for this idea. Its signal notes and scores need independent verification.

Problem

Solo creators and small design agencies (2-5 people) spend 30 minutes to 2 hours per image verifying whether AI-generated images used in ads, product packaging, and social media content infringe on existing copyrights or violate portrait rights of real individuals. Legal disputes can result in damages of 5-50 million won (~$3,750-$37,500), and cases of content takedowns and account suspensions due to unverified image usage are trending upward monthly.

Solution

(1) Reverse image search + similarity scoring to assess infringement risk when AI-generated images are uploaded, (2) Face detection cross-referenced against a real-person database, (3) Instant 3-tier commercial use verdict: 'Safe / Caution / Risk', (4) Usage history management for automatic generation of good-faith evidence in post-dispute scenarios.

Target: Solo creators, 2-10 person design agencies, and marketing agencies commercially using AI image generation tools
