Founding research pilot

Voice claims, permissions and provenance for the AI era.

SoundTitle is exploring a dynamic record for how a person claims a relationship to a voice, grants a specific use, withdraws it, and proves what happened over time. It is inspired by public registries, but it is not a government title system and does not decide legal ownership.

Current release boundary

Register or sign in through the secure account portal. It stores login identities only. Voiceprint registration remains a research prototype: raw recordings and plaintext features stay in local memory, while the server receives a fixed-length AES-GCM encrypted template plus minimal protocol metadata. Existing-record lookup is read-only.

In an AI system, a voice is not merely an audio file. The durable asset is the changing record of identity claims, permissions, restrictions, revocation, use and payment around it.

The proposed model

A dynamic record, not a one-time certificate

SoundTitle separates evidence, current permissions and technical voice material so each can change under its own rules.

01

Claim and assurance

Record who made a claim and the level of evidence behind it: self-declared, identity checked, live consent checked, agent authority reviewed, or institutionally attested.

02

Current permission state

Represent who may use a voice, for which purpose, model, channel, territory and period—and what withdrawal means for future use and existing outputs.

03

Verifiable event history

Preserve an append-only history of claims, reviews, grants, uses, payments, disputes and revocations without placing raw audio or biometric templates in a public ledger.

Privacy architecture

Public proof should reveal as little as possible

R0 · Public record

Minimal registry facts

An opaque identifier, a narrowly defined record status and cryptographic evidence intended for public verification.

R1 · Restricted operations

Permission and audit detail

Scopes, counterparties, model versions, review evidence and operational audit data available only to authorized parties.

R2 · Biometric private

Audio and voice features

Recordings, embeddings, reversible features and key material isolated from public lookup, analytics and client caches.

Legal meaning

A SoundTitle record shows that a submission or event was recorded at a time. It is not a government registration and does not create, decide or guarantee copyright, performers' rights, personality rights or other property rights.
