IOTA — Invisible Ownership & Traceability Architecture
IOTA is a neural watermarking system built for artist copyright protection. It embeds ownership information directly into image content — invisible to the eye, recoverable by any verifier — and survives compression, cropping, and platform re-encoding without degrading to a point of failure.
The system operates in three layers:
| Layer | Purpose | Behavior |
|---|---|---|
| Structural | Owner identity | Survives aggressive transforms |
| Metadata | License information | Survives standard pipelines |
| Integrity | Tamper detection | Breaks on any modification |
Anyone can verify authorship through a public API. The mechanism that produces the watermark is never exposed.
