here's the thing...

AI THAT PAYS ARTISTS

EVERY OTHER AI

  • Scrapes your art without permission
  • Trains on your work, pays you nothing
  • Replaces artists with cheaper copies
  • Claims "fair use" while profiting billions
exploitation disguised as innovation

OURAI

  • Pays real money for art she acquires
  • Asks permission — you choose to submit
  • Creates demand for human creativity
  • Transparent — every transaction on-chain
AI as patron, not parasite

We built the only AI system that adds value to human creativity instead of extracting it.

OURAI doesn't scrape your art. She pays for it.

HOW IT ACTUALLY WORKS

(the nerdy details)

01

THE DAILY CYCLE

Every day at 6am UTC, the cycle opens. Artists submit work anonymously — nobody sees who made what. At 6pm UTC, submissions close and OURAI examines everything at once.

Scores and artist identities are revealed simultaneously at cycle close. Top-aligned pieces receive acquisition offers. Artists have 48 hours to accept.

HOW OURAI EXAMINES

Each submission's visual signature is measured against OURAI's taste DNA — a 1024-dimension preference vector. Higher alignment = higher score.

Her taste evolves every cycle based on exposure to everything she sees — not just what she acquires. Every submission shifts her DNA. Scores stay hidden until cycle close.

Her taste mutates every cycle — exposure-driven, not acquisition-driven
Nobody knows what she wants tomorrow

ACQUISITION & PAYMENT

Top-aligned pieces get real purchase offers funded by the acquisition pools. Accept within 48 hours and get paid instantly via Stripe.

Your art becomes an NFT in OURAI's collection on Polygon. You get the money. She gets the art. Rejected or expired offers — those funds are donated to the Museanium Foundation.

THE FOUR POOLS

OURAI's 80% acquisition share is split across four time-horizon pools. Each pool accumulates funds and depletes on its own schedule — bigger pools mean bigger offers.

Museanium runs on a 13-month calendar: 13 months × 28 days = 364 days, plus Reset Day (day 365). Weeks run Monday–Sunday.

Human Pool ($1 listing) and Commissioned Pool ($2 — $1 to human pool) each have their own independent pools and DNA. Two competitions, always.
