How Bill Gross and Tony Robbins’s ProRata is Empowering Creators to Take Control

AI is revolutionizing the world, but it’s also creating a significant problem for publishers, artists, and creators. Have you ever wondered how much of your content is being used by AI without your consent or compensation? It’s happening more often than you might think.

Tony Robbins and Bill Gross—the visionary who created the pay-per-click model that Google still uses today—have launched ProRata, an AI platform designed to ensure that creators are fairly compensated for the content AI uses.

Does this sound like a massive shift from the current landscape where AI often takes content without any compensation?

Curious to know more? Click here to see how ProRata is changing the game for creators everywhere.
