An open standard for collaborative AI model building — where everyone who contributes earns their share. Open source meets royalties.
Partner With Us →Everyone who builds should benefit. The Data Royalty Standard creates methods for data contributors, model builders, and organizations to collaborate — and share in the value they create together.
Build models. Share royalties. Open standard. That's it.
Register your data contributions with a permanent, verifiable record of what you provided.
Work together to build AI models using standardized collaboration frameworks — from individuals to enterprise.
Every model gets a Model Card — a transparent record of who contributed what and how value is shared.
When models are used, royalties are distributed to everyone who helped build them. Automatically.
Whether you're an individual creator, a startup, an enterprise, or a compute provider — there's a collaboration model designed for you. From traditional agreements to cutting-edge infrastructure, DRS adapts to how you work.
Share data, curate datasets, or fill bounties. Start earning with zero barriers.
Negotiate deals, form co-ops, or build for clients using standardized frameworks.
Privacy-first collaboration for institutions with sensitive data and compliance requirements.
Open source and philanthropic models for research, education, and community benefit.
We don't just set standards — we invest in people. The Foundation funds data science education programs for underserved communities, creating pathways from learning to earning.
Students learn by doing. Graduates enter the workforce ready to contribute. The ecosystem grows stronger with every class.
DRS is infrastructure-agnostic. Whether you operate on traditional financial rails or blockchain — the standard adapts. We support multiple implementation paths.
We're forming founding partnerships and building something new.
Early collaborators shape the standard.
