Mission
Human Intelligence® is a system that protects and defends human creators and helps them to maintain the rights and ownership of their own creative work. If you believe in human creators, and you want to purchase, support and defend real human creators — we provide a whole suite of ways that you can help real human creators! We know the truth:
Humans create.
Machines merely imitate.
Story
The Problem
The Solution
We deliver an essential technical authentication layer that enables human creators to certifiably own their persona and their own work.
You can help by getting verified yourself as a real human supporter, and choose to stand up for human creators on social media and in person.
Look for the
Mark
When you are choosing creative work for pleasure, for profit or for personal pursuit, choose human work.
Here’s how you can tell if something is authentically Human – only genuine human work will be using the registered Humanright™
trademark. This mark guarantees that a work has been registered as human-made.
Choose Human Work — it matters!
Tools: Our Technological Edge
Chain of Creation™
Human Intelligence® tools focus on provenance: rather than “detecting” AI in published creative work after creation, we follow certain tell-tale signs unique to human origin. Our patent-pending systems don’t ingest actual human work at all – instead we examine the plume of activity each work carries with it, which helps us to reliably identify the chain of creation.™
Reliable Authentication
We deliver a proven layer of trust that reliably authenticates human work. Our proprietary method begins by locking down a creator’s biometrically-secured identity, verifying each creator as a natural person. Our system then analyzes work for specific markers that result from human creative processes. When we find these key attributes, we register the work as certified Human Intelligence® – i.e., work that we authenticate as having been actually created by a human being.
