Next Net launched the Standardized Agentic Intelligence Ledger (SAIL), a framework built with Sundial Media & Technology Group and running on NVIDIA's computing platform, to let AI systems access and pay for content from ESSENCE, Refinery29, AFROPUNK and Beautycon. The announcement was made in New York. SAIL aims to establish a scalable framework for how AI systems access, attribute, and compensate premium content creators and publishers, and is described as a CoMP/RSL-Compatible Transaction, Receipt, and Market Intelligence Layer for AI content rights. Franklin Rios, chief executive of Next Net, stated, "The AI economy now needs practical frameworks for fair and transparent content access." Kirk McDonald, chief executive of Sundial Media & Technology Group, said, "As AI continues to reshape the discovery and distribution of content, publishers need greater transparency and control over the accessibility, attribution, and monetization of that content." The pricing or revenue-share percentages were not disclosed, nor the identities of any AI companies that have agreed to draw on SAIL-managed content.
