How to monetise AI-generated content

Create work with a clear use

AI media is more useful when it is art-directed for a recognisable need rather than produced as an undifferentiated batch. A coherent concept, deliberate composition, and room for text or cropping can make an asset more practical.

Inspect every output at full size. Correct malformed details, inconsistent lighting, unreadable text, temporal flicker, and other generation artefacts before submission.

Label provenance honestly

FlexFootage separates AI images and AI video from conventional photography and footage. Always choose the correct media type and describe the result without implying that synthetic people, places, or events are real.

Use generation tools and source material whose terms allow the intended distribution. Do not imitate protected characters, logos, living artists, or identifiable people in ways that create rights or deception risks.

• Disclose that the asset is AI-generated.
• Use accurate subject and style tags rather than prompt fragments.
• Keep records of the tool and workflow used to create important work.

Earn through responsible discovery

AI media can participate in the same rewarded unlock model as other eligible FlexFootage content. Visitors see clear provenance before choosing an asset, and verified provider earnings are attributed to the creator.

Responsible labelling is not a disadvantage: it helps users select media that fits their policies and builds confidence in the creator’s portfolio.
