SAUSALITO, Calif.—CopyMotion has launched a service designed to automatically locate and remove copyrighted videos from adult tube sites. The service, CopyMotion Adult, uses proprietary computer vision technology to find videos based on how the video content appears to the human eye. This type of technology has existed for years in the mainstream industry but has only recently become available to the adult industry. CopyMotion claims that visual matching is the future because other methods are too failure prone and only scratch the surface.
"Finding your videos is often the trickiest part." said Matthew Nolan, CEO of CopyMotion. "Copyright owners may locate a few videos using text searches but uploaders quickly learn how to name uploads to evade this method. You also find a lot of content with the original logos cropped out or obscured by new website addresses. Our technology easily handles all these cases."
The video copyright protection service features an email alert system to notify copyright owners when their content is found. There also is an incident tracking and resolution system that helps remove infringing content with a few clicks. CopyMotion leads the industry with twenty-five tube sites scanned and that list is growing.
"That's what's really unique about CopyMotion,” Nolan said. “We’ve brought the cost of this technology down to where it's affordable to everyone in the adult industry, not just the largest studios. This is absolutely key to having a real impact and turning the tide on copyright infringement.
"With tube sites we are seeing what happens when bandwidth, storage, and hosting limitations begin to fade away," He added. "I think the future online landscape will require that content producers embrace some sort of copyright protection solution to safeguard their livelihoods. We've seen it in mainstream movie and television industries. They've continued to prosper by making it easier and safer to purchase content rather than to pirate it."
