Creator Agreement

AgentsOfAI is a curated marketplace for top-quality, commercial-grade AI-generated stock — images and video. Before you upload, here’s exactly what we accept, what we don’t, and what you’re promising. Please read to the end.

Content Policy

What we accept

• AI-generated images and video, from any tool (Midjourney, Veo, Kling, Sora, Stable Diffusion, Nano Banana — whatever you use). AI is the whole point here — the tool you used is a proud tag. Tell buyers what you used: add it to your tags (e.g. tool:Midjourney). Not required, but strongly encouraged — buyers filter and search by tool, so tagged work gets found.
• Work you have the right to sell. You made it (your prompts, your outputs, your edits) or you otherwise hold the rights. Don’t upload someone else’s work.
• Commercial-quality work a buyer would pay to license.

What we reject — quality bar

We keep the bar high so buyers trust the catalog. We reject:

• Broken AI output — malformed or mutilated anatomy (extra/missing fingers, distorted hands or faces), garbled or nonsense text, obvious glitches and artifacts.
• Low technical quality — heavy compression, noise, blur, or anything below our minimum resolution.
• Near-duplicate spam — don’t flood the catalog with many near-identical variations of the same generation.
• Misleading metadata — titles, descriptions, or tags that don’t match the asset.

What we reject — content rules (prohibited)

• Sexual or explicit content — a hard no. No pornography, no explicit nudity, no sexually explicit material of any kind. (This is automatically scanned on every upload, and it protects our payment processing — card processors are strict, and platforms that allowed it have lost card payments.)
• Minors in sexual, suggestive, or exploitative content — zero tolerance. Child sexual abuse material is a report-to-authorities offense — we report it to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC), as U.S. law requires. Non-sexual content that happens to include children — a family scene, kids playing — is fine.
• Real, identifiable people without the right to use their likeness — no deepfakes of real individuals or public figures, and identifiable real people need a model/property release. AI-generated fictional people are fine.
• Copyrighted characters, brands, logos, or trademarks you don’t have rights to.
• Hate, graphic violence/gore, or harassment.
• Anything else that’s illegal — for example fraud, threats, incitement, or instructions for weapons or drugs. We can’t list every unlawful thing, so we don’t try: if it’s illegal, it’s out, and we make the close calls.

What you promise (in plain terms)

• You have the rights to everything you upload, and it doesn’t infringe anyone’s copyright, trademark, or likeness.
• Your content is genuinely AI-generated. Don’t upload real photographs or camera footage and pass them off as AI — this is an AI-only catalog, and real footage of real people carries privacy and likeness problems we don’t accept.
• If a claim arises from your content, you stand behind it (you indemnify us — see Creator Terms, Section 4).

How we enforce this

• Automated screening on every upload — each upload is cleared, held for review, or rejected before publication.
• Community reporting — any user can report content; reported content may be hidden automatically pending manual review.
• Three-strike system — a removal for a policy violation adds a strike to your account, whether the violation is an asset, a comment, or a message. Strikes 1 and 2: the content is removed and you’re warned. Strike 3: your account is banned and your published work is delisted.
• DMCA / copyright takedowns — a valid takedown removes the content and counts as a strike. Repeat infringers lose their accounts — that is our repeat-infringer policy under the DMCA.
• Appeals — if we reject something you believe is fine, you can appeal (except where the law requires us to act without notice, e.g. illegal-content reports).

Creator Terms

TL;DR (plain language; not a substitute for the full text)

• You keep your rights. You give us a non-exclusive license to host, watermark, preview, and sell your content under our buyer Content License. You can sell the same content elsewhere.
• You promise your uploads are your own AI-generated work, that you complied with your AI tools’ terms, and that they don’t rip off anyone’s IP, trademark, or likeness. If a claim comes from your content, you cover it (indemnification).
• You set your prices within the Platform’s floors and ceiling (Section 6) and earn 65% of every sale (platform 30%; processing fee 5%).
• Your earnings accrue as a balance we hold for you, then transfer to your Stripe account after a hold of at least 60 days.
• Payouts are monthly once your balance reaches your chosen threshold ($5 minimum and default), and you bear the small Stripe payout fee.
• All sales are final for buyers — no refunds on downloaded assets. If a buyer’s bank reverses a charge anyway, that sale’s earnings and the chargeback fee are deducted from your balance.
• Every upload is screened automatically, the community can report published work, and moderators review the queue.
• Violations earn strikes, and three strikes closes the account permanently; DMCA takedowns count as strikes. You can appeal a rejection once per asset.
• Buyers get a usage license, not copyright — because purely AI-generated work generally has none under current US law. Don’t promise buyers exclusivity; the platform doesn’t either.

1. Acceptance and Versioning

These Terms (this “Agreement”) are between you (the “Creator”) and (the “Platform,” operator of AgentsOfAI.art, with its principal place of business at ). You accept them once, before your first upload, by electronic signature (typed full name and date). Your acceptance — including the document version, signature, timestamp, and IP address — is recorded. If this Agreement changes materially, you must re-accept the new version before continuing to upload; prior acceptance records are preserved. This Agreement supplements the Terms of Service, which govern everyone’s use of the Platform and apply to you as well.

2. Your Content and the License You Grant Us

You retain all rights you hold in the content you upload (“Content”). You grant the Platform a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license for the duration of hosting to:

1. Store, reproduce, transcode, resize, and watermark the Content, and generate previews, thumbnails, and animated previews;
2. Publicly display and distribute the Content and previews on the Platform, its feeds, search results, and marketing surfaces for the Platform;
3. Process the Content through automated systems for moderation, search indexing, similarity detection, and AI-content labeling;
4. Sell licenses to the Content to buyers on the terms of the Platform’s Content License, in exchange for the revenue share in Section 6.

This license is non-exclusive: you may license or sell the same Content anywhere else. Licenses already sold to buyers are perpetual and survive removal of the Content or termination of this Agreement.

3. Representations and Warranties

Each time you upload, you represent and warrant — to the Platform and to each buyer of a license to your Content, each of whom may rely on and enforce these warranties — that:

1. AI-generated: the Content was created by you using AI generation tools; it is not a photograph or recording of the real world presented as such, and not another person’s work re-uploaded.
2. Ownership/control: you own all rights in the Content or otherwise control rights sufficient to grant the licenses in this Agreement, including the right to authorize commercial use by buyers.
3. Tool terms: you created the Content in compliance with the terms of service of the AI tools used, on a plan/tier that permits commercial use of outputs, and your tool tags accurately identify the tools used.
4. No third-party violations: the Content does not, to your knowledge, infringe any third-party copyright, trademark, trade dress, or right of privacy or publicity. You did not prompt for or deliberately generate: copyrighted characters, logos, or trademarks; or the likeness of any real person without their documented consent (which you will produce on request).
5. No prohibited content: the Content contains no sexually explicit material, realistic graphic violence, hate speech or symbols, disinformation-style fabrications of real events, or other content prohibited by the Terms of Service.
6. Accurate metadata: titles, descriptions, keywords, and pricing are accurate and not misleading, and the Content is labeled as AI-generated (the Platform applies AI-content labels site-wide and per asset to satisfy disclosure laws such as the EU AI Act and US state AI-transparency laws; you agree not to circumvent them).

4. Indemnification

You will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the Platform, its officers, employees, and agents from and against any claims, damages, penalties, and reasonable attorneys’ fees arising out of: (a) your Content or its sale or licensed use; (b) breach of your representations and warranties; (c) your violation of law or third-party rights. The Platform may assume control of the defense at your expense; you will not settle any claim imposing obligations on the Platform without its consent. This obligation survives removal of Content and termination of this Agreement.

5. Moderation, Strikes, and Removal

You acknowledge and agree that:

• Automated screening: every upload is automatically screened against the Platform’s content standards before publication and may be auto-approved, held for manual review, or rejected. Community members can report published Content; reported Content may be hidden automatically pending moderator review.
• Appeals: if your asset is rejected, you may appeal once per asset from your dashboard; a moderator decision on appeal is final (you may upload a modified version as a new asset).
• Three-strike system: policy violations result in strikes. Strikes 1 and 2: content removed + warning; repeated violations may additionally place your uploads under heightened review. Strike 3: permanent account suspension, with your remaining balance handled per Section 8 and your identity added to a re-registration ban list. Strikes are counted cumulatively. DMCA takedowns count as strikes.
• Platform discretion: the Platform may remove Content or restrict accounts at any time to comply with law, respond to credible complaints, protect users, or preserve its payment-processing relationships — with or without a strike.
• Ban evasion: re-uploading removed or banned Content, or returning after a ban under a new identity, is prohibited and grounds for immediate termination.

6. Pricing, Revenue Share, and Payments

• You set your prices, within Platform limits: price floors of $0.10 per image and $1.00 per video, a $999 per-asset ceiling, and minimum resolution/duration rules at upload. A blank price gets the per-type default ($1 image / $10 video), not the floor. Buyer checkout carries a $15 order minimum — smaller totals are paid via prepaid credits — which does not change your per-asset price or your 65% share.
• Revenue split: 65% to you, 30% to the Platform, 5% processing fee. The split is computed in the Platform’s ledger; your share transfers to you after the payout hold below.
• Stripe Connect: no Stripe setup is required to list or sell — your earnings accrue as a balance the Platform holds for you. To withdraw, you complete a one-time Stripe Connect (Express) onboarding (identity verification / KYC and tax forms W-9 / W-8BEN) — at withdrawal, or sooner if you prefer, but never forced up front. Stripe — not the Platform — collects and stores your banking and tax identity. US creators receive any IRS information returns required for their earnings (e.g., Form 1099) through Stripe.
• Fund custody: buyer payments settle to the Platform’s Stripe balance (the Platform is merchant of record), and your earnings accrue as a balance the Platform holds for you until a payout run transfers them via Stripe Connect Separate Charges & Transfers after the hold below. Buyer-paid credits are prepaid credit the Platform holds (they never expire and are non-refundable except to the extent required by law — the standard stock-marketplace model).
• Payouts: each sale’s earnings are held at least 60 days, and no more than 120 days where fraud or dispute risk requires it (a buyer can dispute a card charge for up to roughly 120 days, and the hold may run as long as the dispute window where risk requires — never more than 120 days), after which they become payable. The Platform pays out monthly once your balance reaches your payout threshold — you choose it, $5 minimum and default; below that it rolls over. You bear the Stripe payout fee — a small per-payout charge plus Stripe’s flat ~$2 active-account fee in months you are paid — both shown on your earnings page before you withdraw, and never marked up. If you expect small balances, consider setting a higher payout threshold so fees stay a small fraction of each payout.

7. Refunds, Chargebacks, and Disputes

All purchases of digital assets are final and non-refundable; buyers acknowledge they previewed the full content before purchase. However, buyers may initiate involuntary chargebacks with their bank. If a buyer’s payment is reversed, the earnings you received from that sale, plus the card network’s chargeback fee, are deducted from your account balance (the Platform absorbs its own share of the reversal). If your balance is insufficient, the Platform may recover the amount from your future earnings.

8. Account Closure and Termination

• You leave: you may delete your account any time (30-day grace period). Your assets are unpublished immediately and files deleted after the grace period. Your remaining earned balance is paid out through our closure process — the monthly payout threshold does not apply on closure, so you can collect what you earned (complete Stripe onboarding to receive it). Any balance you never claim is handled under the unclaimed-earnings policy: after 12 months of inactivity we send a notice, and balances that remain unclaimed are then handled in accordance with applicable unclaimed-property (escheat) law.
• We terminate (3rd strike or manual ban): your assets are unpublished, your Stripe connected account is deactivated for new payouts, and your remaining balance is handled per the closure policy above, except where withholding is required by law or by Stripe (e.g., open disputes or fraud).
• Buyer licenses already sold survive in all cases. Sections 3, 4, 7, and 9 survive termination.

9. Copyright Status of AI Content; No Exclusivity Promises

You acknowledge that under current US law, purely AI-generated works are generally not protected by copyright, and that the Platform sells buyers a contractual usage license backed by your warranties — not copyright ownership or exclusivity. You agree not to represent to buyers, on or off the Platform, that Platform purchases convey copyright or exclusive rights.

10. Relationship; General

You are an independent contractor, not an employee, agent, or partner of the Platform. Nothing here is exclusive — the Platform lists other creators, and you may sell elsewhere. You are responsible for your own income taxes. This Agreement is governed by the laws of the State of New Mexico, with disputes handled as set out in the Terms of Service. If any provision is unenforceable, the remainder stands.

Electronic signature at acceptance: Typed full name + date, recorded with document version, timestamp, IP address, and user agent.
