San Francisco, September 10, 2025 — Redflag AI today announced a formal Content License Agreement with YouTube, expanding their partnership to combat piracy and strengthen monetization opportunities for creators. 

This partnership not only strengthens monetization for creators but also provides rights holders with robust tools to protect their intellectual property across YouTube’s 2.7 billion monthly users. By reclaiming revenue that would otherwise be lost to piracy, Redflag is positioned to offer creators the most competitive revenue share available on the market.

The collaboration provides:

• Unmatched detection accuracy :  Redflag’s Cyclops platform uses advanced fingerprinting and AI analysis to identify even partial or altered uploads.
  
  
• Real-time enforcement:  Unauthorized streams and uploads are flagged and acted on within moments, minimizing revenue loss and reputational harm.
  
  
• Transparent insights:  Rights holders receive actionable data on how and where their content is being used, turning hidden piracy activity into measurable value.
  

“Piracy has long undermined creators and content owners, but speed and precision are changing the game,” said Max Eisendrath, CEO of Redflag AI. “By integrating Cyclops with YouTube’s Content ID, we are not only protecting creators’ rights, but also ensuring they can reclaim lost opportunities for both revenue and audience growth. Rights protection is no longer just defense, it’s a business strategy.”

The stakes are high: the U.S. Chamber of Commerce estimates piracy drains $2.3 trillion from the global economy annually (2024). As AI-generated media makes infringing content harder to detect, tools like Cyclops ensure creators stay one step ahead.

“With this agreement, we’re reframing rights management as a proactive engine of growth,” Eisendrath added. “Our mission is to give creators and media companies confidence that their content can thrive securely in a digital ecosystem that is only growing more complex.”
