Copydefend turns copyright enforcement into a layer of data and measurable outcomes for the economy.
Copydefend is a Russian LegalTech team in the field of copyright enforcement. We build practice on data and measurable outcomes, grounded in globally accepted standards for the protection of copyright and intellectual property.
Our work makes the defense of creative labor predictable and accessible to rightsholders at any scale.
Our principles and values
Copyright protection across any jurisdiction
Creative labor and intellectual property are protected regardless of country or platform. We work to the same standards that apply globally.
Human in the loop as a standard
We use human-centered AI for deep analytics on data. This oversight aligns with the EU AI Act requirements for control over AI systems.
Openness of processes and data
We support transparency of data and approaches at every level and treat it as a core element of global business. Personal data is handled responsibly; anonymized market statistics are shared with researchers and the press.
Corporate Social Responsibility
How our principles translate into action: supporting independent creators, open data, and industry research.

Copyright protection should not be a privilege reserved for large rightsholders. I’m building Copydefend so that creators at any scale can defend their work — to the same standards the industry holds. Not faster for the sake of speed, nor cheaper for the sake of price — but predictable: with a clear process and a measurable outcome.
