Assent

Anyone's face can go into an AI ad in seconds usually without consent and without payment. Assent makes consent the first step of every AI-generated image. Creators license their likeness to brands for specific uses at a per-image price. A Muse Spark agent plans each shot and refuses banned ones with a plain-language reason the model proposes, the code decides. Muse Image renders only from the creator's consented, encrypted reference photos, which are opened only after the safety check passes. SAM 3.1 then runs a consent gate on every image: exactly one person, and it must be the licensed creator, or the image is blocked and nothing is charged. Every delivered image carries a visible AI label, a C2PA content credential and a KMS-signed receipt anyone can verify. Creators are paid per render and can revoke at any time, stopping new renders immediately. Results: 22/22 eval cases every banned brief refused (including four written to beat keyword filters), every consent case caught at ~50 s and ~$0.03 per image, live at the URL in the README. Judge access: the README's "Test it in 5 minutes" section explains the demo accounts (synthetic creator only no real faces).
