ORIGO is where your work remembers where it came from. Register it in one move. Say who can build on it and what share stays yours if it ever earns. Your face, your voice, your footage: you say yes, and you can take that yes back.
This is your studio. Register what you make, say what people may do with it, wire your accounts once, and make it law where you live.
FlowMe will walk you through your next step, hands-on.
Music, video, photos, a script, a 3D model, a song somebody sang in your kitchen. Same spine for all of it.
Your file is fingerprinted here, in your browser. We keep the fingerprint. You keep the file.
LiveKeep it, or put it in the pool. Pool it and the licence holds 10% of anything a derived work earns for you, on whichever rail it earns on.
LiveA face, a voice, somebody's house, a piece of music. They answer from their own phone, and they can take it back. Every cut built on it goes with them.
LivePulling it out of the pool writes the usage and the lineage in the same breath. A cut can never lose track of what it was made from.
LiveNothing here earns on its own. When a work does earn, the split is already written: the share climbs back up the graph to everyone it was made from. Ancestors can never take more than half, so whoever made the thing keeps the majority.
LiveThe certificate is evidence. A national registry is title. ORIGO fills the real government forms and hands you the envelope to send.
LivePaste a lyric, a title, a scene, a statement of authorship. Anything you made. It gets fingerprinted in this browser and written to the real registry with a certificate. The only thing that leaves your machine is the fingerprint.
Fingerprinted on your device
Everything people have opened up, with the licence attached and the way back to whoever shot it already wired. Pull a clip and the usage is written for you: nobody has to remember to give credit, and nobody has to chase anybody for it later.
Cut with it, remix it, translate it. Credit required. The licence holds 10% of anything your version earns for the person who shot it. A paid project needs its own conversation.
Same thing, and it can go into something that sells. Same credit, same 10% written down. The clip only reaches this shelf because its owner put it here.
Registered, fingerprinted, anchored, credited to you, and nobody can build on it. Keeping it costs you nothing. That is what makes the other two an offer instead of a toll gate.
Ranked by how close a work sits to what you are building: the same source first, then the people already in your split, then the project, then the medium. Every suggestion says why it came up, so you can argue with it.
This is a calculator over a split somebody declared, not a payment. Put a number in and watch it break apart: everyone in the split takes their share, then every work this one was built from takes the cut its licence asked for, all the way up. Ancestors can never take more than half: whoever made the thing keeps the majority.
ORIGO is a registry. It is not a broker, a platform that sells your work, or an investment of any kind. Registering is free and what it gives you is a record of ownership and a royalty path: who is owed what share, if and when the work earns. ORIGO never holds your money and cannot make anything earn.
ORIGO cannot make anything earn. What it can do is sit underneath the places where work already changes hands in our own flow, so that when something does earn, the split runs on the real number instead of on somebody's memory.
Event drops. Every clip somebody hands in is fingerprinted and registered to them, and an editor cutting with it pulls it out of the pool, which is what writes the lineage.
Ebooks, courses, masterclasses and sessions. A voice can register her offering as a work, say which pieces from the pool she built it with, and a sale of it is written against that certificate.
A shop we did not build can report a sale against a certificate, and the same arithmetic runs on it. ORIGO does not have to be the shop, and it never is the bank.
Numbers on this page come from the registry as it is right now, not from a slide. Where something is built but nobody has used it yet, it says so.
If a payout happens on a rail that uses FlowShare, it leaves through Stripe or Mercado Pago into an account somebody already has, without anyone touching a wallet or learning a new word.
A split contract on Base behind a Safe. Whatever lands there is withdrawn by each person directly. ORIGO holds no balance and no key on either rail: we do the arithmetic, the money is never ours.
A licence says what anyone may do with the FILE. It says nothing about the people inside it. Ask them here and they answer from their own session, so the record says they agreed rather than that somebody said they did. And they can take it back at any time, which is the part that makes it consent at all.
Nobody had to be asked, or everybody answered. It can go out.
It can still be pulled into something free. It cannot go into anything that sells until they reply.
Refused, withdrawn, or the grant ran out. Nothing pulls it, and every cut already built on it is blocked with it.
Licence, split, lineage, clearances and proofs in one file anyone can read and archive next to yours. It is generated the moment you ask for it, never stored: if somebody withdrew their face this morning, the contract says so this morning.
Under the Berne Convention copyright is yours the moment you make the thing, in every one of the 180-odd countries that signed it. Nobody has to grant it and no office can withhold it. What a national registry adds is evidence a court will accept, and in one country the right to sue at all. So the honest answer is that these paths are not equally hard, and one of them does not exist.
The hardest of the three that are real, and the one ORIGO does for you. INDARELÍN, the online portal, has been suspended since February 2026, so it goes by email now, with a handwritten signature and a bank payment. ORIGO fills the official RPDA-01 from your profile and assembles the whole envelope.
Your profile and your work fill the real RPDA-01, and the pseudonym annex, ready for you to read.
Print it, sign it by hand, scan it. INDAUTOR wants a handwritten signature on a work.
The federal fee through e5cinco, online or at a counter, with the hoja de ayuda ORIGO includes.
ORIGO drafts it to registro.obras@cultura.gob.mx with every document attached. You press send.
Simpler than México, and it matters more. Since Fourth Estate v. Wall-Street.com (Supreme Court, 2019) a US court will not hear an infringement claim until the Office has actually granted the registration, not merely received the application. The Court noted the average processing time was around seven months, so this is the one worth doing before you need it rather than after.
Literary, performing arts, visual arts, motion pictures, photographs, or other digital content. copyright.gov/registration
$45 for one work by one author, not made for hire. $65 for the standard application. The fee schedule is the only thing to trust on price.
The file itself. Your ORIGO certificate is not a substitute, but it is what proves the date while you wait.
Fully online through the SEL platform, and cheaper online than in person: S/ 90.10 for a literary work (code 203000704) or an artistic one (code 203000715), against S/ 238.10 at a counter. Pay first at pagalo.pe, keep the receipt, then fill the form and attach the work. Up to 120 working days. ORIGO does not fill these forms yet.
The Dirección Nacional de Derecho de Autor charges nothing. Register at registroenlinea.gov.co and it is reviewed by hand in about 15 working days. Online filing is for Colombian nationals; anyone else files in person. ORIGO does not fill these forms yet.
The same answer as the EU, and gov.uk says it plainly: there is no UK copyright register. The IPO handles patents, trade marks and designs. Protection is automatic, with no application and no fee. What you may need is proof of the date, which is the job your certificate already does.
Each of these has a real registry, and Brasil splits by work type across different authorities. None of their fees or portals has been confirmed from a primary source yet, so none of them is described here. A number nobody checked is worse than a gap.
Voluntary deposit through TAD, the country's remote-procedures portal. Being mapped so the same one move works for an Argentine creator.
No EU-wide copyright registration exists. EUIPO runs trademarks and designs, not copyright, and there is no unified EU copyright title. Your work is protected automatically in all 27 member states. A few countries keep a voluntary national register, useful only as dated evidence, which is the job your ORIGO certificate already does.
WIPO does not register copyright and has no copyright database. It runs the treaties the national offices sit under. WIPO PROOF, its digital timestamp, was discontinued in January 2022; existing tokens stay valid. OpenTimestamps does that job here, for free.
In every signatory country the right exists from the moment of creation and registration cannot be made a condition of it. What you are ever missing is proof of the date, and a cheap independent one is exactly what the Bitcoin timestamp on your certificate is.
This part is built for one craft, so the rest of you can skip it without missing anything. Registering proves you made the song. Getting it heard means a distributor, a streaming profile, a PRO, a way to be paid. FlowMe walks you through each one, and the split you declared here travels with the release.
A checklist that lives on your device. FlowMe shows you where to sign up, what to claim, and how the split you declared here travels with the release, so a credit does not go missing on the way.
ORIGO is a registry with an interface, not a site you have to publish through. Everything on this page is these calls, and nothing is private to us: the same ones run from a browser, a server, a Cloudflare Worker or a Deno edge function, because the client is plain fetch with no dependencies.
import { createOrigo, hashFile } from '@flowbond/origo';
const origo = createOrigo(); // acts as the signed-in person
// say a thing exists and who it belongs to. the bytes never leave the device
await origo.register({ title, contentHash: await hashFile(file), medium: 'video',
license: { tier: 'pool_free', upstream_bps: 1000 } });
// take something out of the pool. throws if the licence does not allow it
const asset = await origo.pull(certId, { commercial: true });
// build on it. lineage is required, so a cut cannot lose its sources
await origo.derive({ title, contentHash, parents: [{ cert_id: asset.cert_id }] });
// ask the people in it. they answer from their own session, and can withdraw
await origo.requestPermission({ certId, kind: 'likeness', grantor: { handle } });
// tell the registry something happened. replays are idempotent
await origo.report({ certId, event: 'sale', amountMinor, currency, externalRef });
// who is owed what, if it earned that. moves nothing
await origo.settlePreview(certId, amountMinor, 'USD');
// the whole rights position as one document a festival can read
await origo.agreement(certId);
// what to reach for next, along the path you are already on
await origo.suggest({ certId });
// everything about one work: licence, split, ancestors, proofs, in one trip
await origo.resolve(certId);The schema is not exposed to PostgREST. Every one of these goes through a function that checks who is asking, and a signed-in caller is always attributed to themselves, so nobody can register as somebody else. A server may act for a person but has to name them.
Nobody who makes something pays to register it, to licence it, to ask a permission, or to hold a certificate. Not a trial, not a tier. ORIGO is worth something only when there is enough in it to build on, and charging the person who puts the work in is the surest way to make sure there never is.
FlowStudio, Voces and whatever comes next do not each invent their own answer to who made this, what may be done with it, and who is owed what. They call the same nine. A product connects with one column, one ownership check and one RPC.
Filing into a national registry is real work: forms, a handwritten signature, a bank payment, an envelope. Doing that for somebody is a service and could carry a price one day. Knowing your work is yours never will.
Picking one chain for everything would have meant doing one of these jobs badly. Proof of existence has to be free and permanent, and money has to be cheap to move and easy to withdraw. Those are not the same chain.
Only the SHA-256 digest leaves. Public calendars batch thousands of them into one transaction and pay that fee themselves, so there is no wallet, no key and no cost here, ever. The receipt is checkable by anyone against any Bitcoin node, offline, without trusting us.
When somebody wants an on-chain rail, the split is written into a 0xSplits contract controlled by a Safe. Revenue lands on the split address and each person withdraws directly: ORIGO holds no balance and no key. The contracts are public and already there, ours are not deployed.
Both addresses were checked on Base mainnet on 18 September 2026 and both hold code. No treasury has been created for any project yet, so nothing has ever been paid through this rail.
