Free Assessment
Under current U.S. law, work-made-for-hire doctrine doesn't apply to AI-generated output. If your team uses AI to create content, code, or designs, you may have less IP protection than you think.
Under current U.S. copyright law, work-made-for-hire doctrine does not apply to AI-generated output. The D.C. Circuit confirmed in 2025 that AI cannot be an author, employee, or party to a contract. We score how well your documentation, filing practices, and data controls protect your AI-assisted work product.
Do you have a written AI policy that addresses IP ownership? Do your employment and contractor agreements cover AI-generated work product? Most companies haven't updated their agreements — leaving ownership of employee AI output in a legal gray area. Board members increasingly need to understand these risks as part of their governance and fiduciary responsibilities.
Copyright protection requires evidence of human creative contribution. If your team doesn't document which parts of AI-assisted outputs reflect human judgment, you can't defend a copyright claim. We assess how ready your documentation practices are.
Enterprise AI tools, team accounts, and free-tier tools have very different terms for IP ownership and data retention. Are your employees using tools with terms you haven't reviewed? Do your vendor agreements protect your proprietary data and trade secrets?
