What does Versos do?
Versos helps video libraries and studios license their archives for AI training. It connects to existing cloud storage such as S3 or Cloudflare, analyzes assets at file and frame level, adds searchable metadata and assembles datasets by content type, format, duration, resolution, language and aspect ratio. It then delivers datasets to the licensee's storage and tracks provenance and exclusions through to revenue settlement.
“Versos has fundamentally upgraded how we process and prepare our library for AI Data Training distribution.”
How much do AI companies pay for video?
Versos reports in a blog post that OpenAI pays $1 to $4 per minute for directly licensed video and that Adobe pays about $3 per minute. The post cites no source for these rates, so treat them as indicative. Versos does not publish its own fees, revenue share, exclusivity or payment timing.
Who is Versos a good fit for?
Versos suits owners of large video libraries who want to keep content in their own storage. Video carries layered rights in music, performances and trademarks, which our video and audio licensing guide and our page for media companies and video archives cover.
