Content protection for the AI era

Find where your content
resurfaces in AI.

Theia AR creates a semantic fingerprint of your work and checks AI outputs for meaningful matches — so publishers and rights holders can document possible reuse and decide when to license, investigate, or enforce.

“AR” means Asset Registry — a system of record for the content you own. Powered by Parsifer’s semantic-fingerprinting technology.

Why it matters

Your catalog is your moat. AI erodes it quietly.

Frontier models are a channel through which your proprietary content — articles, images, research, music, training material — can leak outward and become part of consensus knowledge that anyone can access. The first step to protecting it is knowing where it shows up.

Unlicensed reuse

Your work can appear in AI answers with no attribution, no license, and no referral back to you.

No line of sight

Most rights holders have no practical way to check whether their material is surfacing inside AI systems.

No record to act on

Deciding whether to license, investigate, or enforce requires evidence you can point to. Today that evidence doesn’t exist.

How it works

A registry for your assets, and a lens on AI

Theia AR is built on Parsifer’s patent-pending semantic-fingerprinting technology. It follows a four-step process to identify, track, and document your assets.

1

Semantic fingerprint

We analyze a sample of your work to generate a semantic fingerprint — a distinctive signature of its style and substance, stored with metadata about the source.

2

Policy & rules

Your access rules and any relevant regulatory guidance are captured alongside the fingerprint, so controls travel with the asset.

3

Check & track

Theia AR checks AI outputs for material that is semantically similar to your protected content, and tracks matches over time.

4

Audit trail

Every check is recorded — what was compared, when, and the result — giving you a documented record to act on.

What a match means: Theia AR flags outputs that are semantically similar to your source material, providing a starting point for investigation. A match indicates similarity worth looking into — it does not by itself prove how or when a model acquired the material.

Who it's for

Built for publishers and rights holders

If your business depends on a catalog of valuable content, Theia AR helps you keep sight of it. Three quick questions:

  • Does proprietary content play an important role in your work?
  • Is that content protected IP or a source of revenue?
  • Would it matter if an AI system reproduced it?

Publishers

News, research, and professional publishers protecting catalogs from unlicensed reuse and lost referral traffic.

Rights holders

Studios, labels, and agencies managing large libraries of licensable creative work.

Independent creators

Authors, analysts, and consultants whose reports and original work are their livelihood.

About

Founded by a compliance-surveillance and NLP specialist

Theia AR was founded by Sharon L. Bolding, PhD. At Citi, she led the team that built an AI platform for compliance surveillance, including a risk model spanning 42 languages. Her background is in natural-language processing, machine learning, and data-driven product strategy.

She holds a PhD in Linguistics (University of British Columbia) and has co-founded multiple companies. Theia AR applies that expertise to a focused problem: helping rights holders see, and document, where their content meets AI.
