Digital Rights Management (dDRM)

Elacity’s dDRM (Decentralized Digital Rights Management) enables sovereign ownership and trading of digital assets without intermediaries.

The Three Pillars

1. Protect

Encrypt your assets so AI cannot scrape them for free.

─────────────────────────────────────────
Central servers              Your hardware
Company controls             You control
Can be revoked               Mathematically yours

Your content is mathematically invisible without an Access Token.

2. Automate

Embed “Rights Logic” that forces AI agents and individuals to pay you instantly.

  • No manual invoicing
  • No chasing payments
  • No payment processors

Smart contracts enforce licensing automatically.

3. Settle

Bypass banks and platforms. Revenue hits your wallet in seconds.

  • No “Net-30” days
  • No intermediaries
  • No platform fees (beyond gas)
