Model Release and Likeness Consent
Last updated: 22 August 2026
This Model Release and Likeness Consent Agreement (the “Release”) is entered into between Mirai Talent Inc., a Delaware corporation (File Number 10680377) with its registered office at 2810 North Church Street, Wilmington, DE 19802, USA, trading as Mirai (“Mirai,” “we,” “us”), and the individual who applies to be a Talent on our platform (“you,” “Talent”). It governs how we use your photographs and likeness as reference inputs to AI image generation, and to fulfil commercial bookings from brands (each a “Client”).
By submitting your application, you accept every term below. If you do not agree with any part of this Release, do not submit an application and do not upload your photographs.
In plain English
- You upload your photos. We curate a small set of them into a “canonical kit” — the reference images we pass to a third-party AI generator every time a brand commissions a shot of you. Your photos are not used to train any AI model. Nothing about your likeness is baked into model weights; your images are simply visual references at the moment of each generation.
- You approve every image before it is delivered to a brand. Without your approval, nothing is licensed.
- You earn 80 percent of every licence fee. Mirai keeps 20 percent for the platform, infrastructure, and production.
- You can withdraw consent at any time with 72 hours’ notice. New generations stop. Images already approved and already licensed stay valid for the term the brand paid for, because we cannot recall them from the wild.
- You confirm you are at least eighteen years old and that the photos you upload are of yourself and legally yours to share.
1. Grant of Licence
You grant Mirai a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-bearing, limited licence to use, reproduce, modify, adapt, combine, and display your photographs, video recordings, voice recordings, likeness, name, and biographical details (together, the “Likeness Materials”) solely for the purposes described in this Release. This licence is sublicensable only (a) to service providers that process your Likeness Materials on Mirai’s behalf under confidentiality and data-processing obligations, and (b) to Clients, strictly through the paid licences described in Section 6 — never otherwise. The permitted purposes are: storing a curated set of your photographs as your canonical reference kit, together with any intro and movement recordings you submit; passing those reference materials to the approved third-party AI generation engines (for still images OpenAI’s GPT Image 2, Google’s Nano Banana 2, ByteDance’s Seedream 5.0 Pro Edit, Black Forest Labs’s FLUX.2 [pro] Edit; and for video ByteDance’s Seedance 2.5 Reference to Video, all accessed via fal.ai) at the moment a Client commissions content; generating images and other media featuring your Likeness; delivering that content to Clients who have paid a licence fee; displaying your profile on the Mirai roster; and operating the Mirai platform (the “Platform”); and featuring approved images of your Likeness in Mirai’s own marketing as described in Section 2b, which you may withdraw from at any time. Your photographs are not used to train, fine-tune, or otherwise create derivative AI model weights.
2. How We Use Your Photos, Videos, and Voice
We use the materials you submit for the following distinct purposes:
- Reference inputs at the time of generation. A curated subset of your photos (your “canonical kit” — a head-and-shoulders headshot, a 45-degree angle, a profile, an expressive shot, and half-body and full-body shots) is stored in our infrastructure and passed as visual references to the AI generator every time a Client commissions an image of you. Your photos are never used to train, fine-tune, or otherwise create AI model weights. We do not sell your photographs to third parties, and we do not contribute them to general-purpose AI training datasets.
- Third-party processors. Your reference materials are transmitted, at the moment of each generation, to fal.ai (the routing layer between Mirai and the AI generation engines) and through it to the approved engine handling that request. The approved engines are for still images OpenAI’s GPT Image 2, Google’s Nano Banana 2, ByteDance’s Seedream 5.0 Pro Edit, Black Forest Labs’s FLUX.2 [pro] Edit; and for video ByteDance’s Seedance 2.5 Reference to Video. Each is admitted under the same standard: identity comes only from your reference kit, the provider prohibits sexually explicit content under its own usage policy, inputs are not used for training, and no persistent copy of your likeness is retained. ByteDance is headquartered in China. fal.ai stores generations briefly for delivery and does not train on them. This list is exhaustive: an engine meeting the same standard may be added after we tell you first, and any weakening of the standard itself requires your fresh consent before your Likeness is sent to it.
- New generation techniques require renewed consent. If Mirai changes its image-generation approach in any way that would use your photographs differently from the reference-input mechanism described above — including any form of fine-tuning, model training, or creation of derivative AI model weights — we will obtain your fresh written consent before applying that approach to your Likeness.
- Video and voice references. If you submit them during onboarding, your movement clips are used as motion references for video generation, and your intro recording is used as the voice reference that keeps your voice consistent in content featuring you. They serve your AI likeness only — they are never used in anyone else’s content and never sold or shared as standalone assets.
- Your likeness model stays private to you. Any identity model Mirai builds from your reference materials (including any per-model weights or embeddings) is used solely to generate your own approved images. It is never pooled into a shared or general-purpose model, never used to train models for anyone else, and never sold or shared. The AI generators process your reference materials to produce an output; Mirai uses these API services under terms that state customer inputs are not used to train general models, subject to each provider's documented retention, safety and legal-obligation practices.
- Voice model — the one narrow exception, with your separate consent. If you submitted an intro recording and agreed to voice use at signing, Mirai may create a voice model from that recording, used solely so that your voice stays consistent in content featuring you that you have approved. Your voice model is never used to voice anyone else’s likeness or content, is never sold, shared, or licensed as a standalone asset, and is deleted — together with the recordings it was built from — when you revoke under Section 8.
- Character sheet. Mirai maintains a structured, human-readable profile of your appearance and delivery (for example: hair colour, build, speaking-pace notes) together with pointers to your reference materials, used to keep content of you consistent across generations. It is a written description, not AI model weights, and it is deleted on revocation. Apart from this profile, your reference photographs, and your submitted recordings — all deleted per Section 8 — Mirai retains no data about your likeness.
- Portfolio and marketing. A selected subset of your photos, chosen by you during the application process, is displayed on your public Talent profile so Clients can discover and book you.
2a. Biometric and Surveillance Exclusion
Mirai does not use your photographs or likeness for biometric identification, facial recognition, identity verification, authentication systems, surveillance, profiling, or law-enforcement purposes. Your reference photographs are used exclusively to guide AI imagery generation in response to Client commissions — nothing else. Mirai does not knowingly supply your Likeness Materials to any third party for identification or surveillance purposes, and will not do so without separate explicit written consent from you. This section survives termination or revocation of this Release.
2b. How Mirai Promotes You (Withdrawable)
As part of this Release, Mirai may feature approved images of your Likeness in its own marketing — the Mirai website, social media accounts, press materials, and investor or partner presentations. This is the shop window that gets you discovered and booked, and it is disclosed plainly as its own clause in the signing ceremony. It is also always withdrawable: you can step out of Mirai’s marketing at any time, and doing so changes nothing else — your profile, bookings, and earnings work exactly the same.
- Approved images only. Marketing use draws only from images you approved (or that were licensed under a consent you signed) — never from drafts, rejected frames, or your raw reference photos.
- Same boundaries as everywhere else. Your exclusion categories (Section 7) apply in full, your body and silhouette are never altered, and marketing use never implies a personal testimonial or endorsement by you.
- Withdraw anytime. Email legal@miraitalent.ai and this permission ends going forward: no new marketing uses of your Likeness, and existing Mirai posts featuring you are removed within 14 days of your request.
3. How Your Likeness Is Used for Brands
When a Client commissions imagery featuring your Likeness, Mirai generates draft images using the AI generator using your canonical kit photographs as visual references. Every generated image enters a draft state and requires your explicit approval before it may be licensed. You may reject any image for any reason. Once approved, the image is released to the Client under the terms of their licence, which specifies the permitted format (Digital or Print + OOH), territory (currently Global), duration (6 months, 12 months, 24 months, or 10 years), and exclusivity (non-exclusive or category-exclusive). You will see the exact licence terms before approving.
Generated images are synthetic works produced by an AI system from reference photographs — they are not photographs of you, and Clients are prohibited from representing them as real photographs of a specific individual. The AI system may render your likeness with variations in expression, pose, styling, hair, background, or environment. By approving an image, you confirm that the representation is acceptable to you in the context of the described licence; you do not warrant that the image is indistinguishable from a real photograph or that it accurately depicts any specific attribute of your real-world appearance beyond your general likeness.
3a. Virtual Casting
Before commissioning a campaign, a vetted campaign partner or enterprise Client may want to see how you look in the context of their brief — the AI-era version of a casting or go-see. If you are being considered for a specific engagement, Mirai may share a small casting reference set (up to three images from your canonical kit) with that named partner, and the partner may generate a limited number of casting images of you solely to decide whether to book you. Casting works under strict limits:
- Never published. Casting images are working material for the partner’s casting team only. They are never published, licensed, delivered to end clients, or shared beyond that team, and they carry none of the rights of a licensed image.
- Same protections as everything else. Your images are never used to train any AI model and no reusable model of your identity may be created (Section 2); your body and silhouette are never altered; and your exclusion categories (Section 7) apply to casting images exactly as they do to licensed work.
- Deleted if you are not booked. If you are not selected within fourteen (14) days, the partner must delete your casting reference set and every casting image, and certify that deletion on request. You may ask us to confirm deletion at any time.
- Unpaid, like a traditional casting. Virtual casting carries no fee (rate of pay: US $0). If you are selected, your engagement — including your guaranteed fee — is set out in a separate written campaign consent that you sign before any campaign use of your Likeness. Casting never substitutes for that consent, and no campaign image of you can be created or used without it.
- You can opt out. You may revoke your virtual casting consent at any time with 72 hours’ notice, using the same mechanism as Section 8. Revocation stops future castings and does not affect any engagement you have separately consented to.
4. Payment Terms
You receive eighty percent (80%) of every licence fee paid by a Client in connection with your Likeness. Mirai retains twenty percent (20%) to cover platform infrastructure, AI compute, payment processing, and production operations. Payments are processed through Stripe Connect. You may request payout on demand once you have cleared the minimum threshold; otherwise payouts are issued weekly. Taxes, withholdings, and any fees charged by your local banking or payment providers are your responsibility. Mirai will furnish the reporting reasonably required for you to declare your earnings in your jurisdiction.
5. Exclusivity and Non-Exclusivity
Unless you and Mirai agree otherwise in writing, your engagement with Mirai is non-exclusive — you are free to work with other agencies, platforms, brands, and employers. Mirai offers three distinct, separately-agreed forms of exclusivity. No single label is used for all three, and they are never interchangeable:
- Asset exclusivity. A specific approved image is not licensed to a competitor for the agreed term. It does not restrict any other Mirai asset of you or your work anywhere else.
- Campaign exclusivity. Mirai will not license substantially similar assets of you to a named competitor set for the term. It does not restrict your modelling work outside Mirai.
- Talent category exclusivity. You agree not to work with competitors in a defined category — which may include your traditional modelling work — for the term. This is the most restrictive form. It is never applied by default and is only ever entered by a separate signed contract that specifies the category, named competitors where possible, territory, channels, duration, whether it covers Mirai only or all modelling work, whether it affects pre-existing bookings, your compensation, and the conflict process. A self-serve licence never creates talent category exclusivity.
6. Scope of Brand Usage
Clients may only use images of your Likeness within the parameters of the licence they purchased. Licences on Mirai are structured across four dimensions:
- Format. Digital (the Client's own web and e-commerce, organic and paid social, paid digital advertising, email and CRM, third-party retailer and marketplace listings, and digital OOH; broadcast, connected-TV and cinema require a separate licence) or Print + OOH (magazines, packaging, billboards, transit, in-store).
- Duration. 6 months, 12 months, 24 months, or 10 years (the maximum term — perpetual grants are not offered).
- Territory. Global (expanded regions may be added).
- Exclusivity. Non-exclusive (the same image can be licensed to other brands) or asset-exclusive (that specific image is not licensed to a competitor for the term). Campaign and talent category exclusivity are separate signed contracts — see Section 5.
Clients are contractually prohibited from using images outside the scope of their licence, from sublicensing or reselling images as standalone assets, from depicting you in contexts that are defamatory, sexually explicit, misleading, or harmful, and from using your Likeness to generate political endorsements, religious endorsements, or health or financial claims without explicit additional consent.
Your appearance in an asset does not constitute a personal testimonial, endorsement, recommendation, statement of actual use, or representation of personal experience. A Client may not present it as any of those unless you separately approve that use in writing.
6a. What Clients May and May Not Do to Licensed Images
Once you approve an image and a Client licenses it, the Client may make the following modifications within the scope of their licence:
- Crop, resize, and adjust framing for different placements (web, print, billboard, social).
- Adjust colour, brightness, contrast, and tone curves to match brand guidelines or print specs.
- Composite the image into ad layouts, magazine spreads, and packaging artwork.
- Add text, logos, product overlays, and standard brand typography.
Clients are contractually prohibited from:
- Defamatory, sexually explicit, misleading, or context-distorting modifications.
- Using the licensed image as input to any AI generation system, including image-to-image models, LoRA training, or any other process that produces new images from yours.
- Re-generating new variants or alternate shots of you. New imagery requires a new generation and a new licence.
- Selling, sublicensing, or transferring the image to third parties as a standalone asset.
- Using your Likeness for political endorsements, religious endorsements, or health or financial claims without explicit additional consent from you.
Your approval covers only the specific delivered asset as reviewed by you at the point of approval. Any material modification made to a licensed image by a Client after delivery — including alterations to body, face, context, background, or overlaid copy that would change how the image would reasonably be understood — voids the protections afforded by your approval under this Release and transfers full responsibility for the modified asset to the Client. Mirai bears no liability for modifications made outside the Platform after delivery and will cooperate with any enforcement action you bring against a Client who makes such modifications.
6b. What You Earn — Per-Image Ranges
Mirai pays you 80% of every licence fee. The fee a Client pays per image depends on two choices — format and duration. The ranges below reflect the realistic ends of those choices (6 months at the low end, 10 years at the high end).
- Digital, per image — Client pays $50–$175. You receive $40–$140.
- Print + OOH, per image — Client pays $120–$420. You receive $96–$336.
Category-exclusivity (locking you to one brand in a category) is handled as a separate custom-quoted contract, not a multiplier on per-image fees. Custom contracts pay more — see Section 6d.
6c. What You Earn — Per-Clip Video Ranges
Motion clips are licensed as their own asset, not bundled with the source image. You also earn 80% of every video licence fee. Format options are Digital or Digital + OOH (digital out-of-home screens — billboards, transit, retail panels). Same duration multipliers as images.
- Digital, per clip — Client pays $75–$263. You receive $60–$210.
- Digital + OOH, per clip — Client pays $200–$700. You receive $160–$560.
Every video clip goes through the same per-clip approval flow you use for images. A Client cannot license a clip until you have signed off on it individually, even if they have already licensed the source image.
6d. What You Earn — Campaign Patterns
How many assets a Client books in one campaign varies. Indicative ranges below combine images and clips at typical campaign mixes; your actual earnings depend on what each Client chooses.
- Small DTC brand — typically 3–5 images per launch (paid social, email, product page heroes), sometimes one short clip. Your share: ~$150–$900.
- Boutique seasonal campaign — 10–20 images plus 2–4 clips, mixed Digital and Print + OOH at 12–24 months. Your share: ~$1,000–$8,000.
- Larger brand or agency campaign — 30–50+ images plus 5–10 clips, often Print + OOH on long durations. Your share: ~$10,000–$30,000+.
- Category-exclusivity contract — custom-quoted reservation locking you to one brand in a category for a fixed term. Pricing and your share are negotiated per contract.
No earnings are promised or guaranteed. The figures above are indicative ranges derived from Mirai’s current pricing structure and assumed booking patterns. Your actual income depends entirely on whether and how often Clients book you, at which licence scope, and on platform demand at the time. Past or projected platform performance is not a reliable indicator of future earnings, and Mirai makes no representation that you will earn any specific amount.
7. Exclusion Categories
You may specify, in your Talent settings, categories you do not wish your Likeness to be used for, for example alcohol, gambling, tobacco, cryptocurrency, adult products, pharmaceuticals, firearms, political campaigns, or religious campaigns. Mirai will refuse generation requests from Clients that fall within your exclusion categories. You may update your exclusions at any time. Updates apply to all future generations but do not retroactively revoke licences already purchased.
8. Right to Revoke Consent
You may revoke this Release at any time by emailing legal@miraitalent.ai or by using the withdrawal option in your Talent settings. Within seventy-two (72) hours of receipt of your notice, we will: (a) cease all new generation using your Likeness, including any use of your voice model; (b) pause your public Talent profile; and (c) delete your canonical kit reference photographs, your intro and movement recordings, your voice model, your character sheet, and any internal uploads of your materials from our infrastructure within thirty (30) days, subject to any legal retention obligations.
The following rules govern what happens to existing uses of your Likeness after revocation takes effect:
- Existing paid licences survive for their purchased term — never beyond their scope (format, duration, territory; maximum term ten years). Clients who have already paid for and received an approved image retain their rights for the full duration they paid for. You will continue to receive your 80% share of those licence fees.
- Live campaigns may continue through their licence duration. Campaigns already running at the time of revocation — including paid advertising, retail packaging in distribution, and scheduled social posts — may continue to run until the licensed duration expires. Clients may not launch new campaigns using your Likeness after the revocation effective date.
- Internal brand archives. Clients may retain licensed imagery in internal compliance archives for legal record-keeping purposes, provided those images are not published or used in new campaigns.
- New generations stop within seventy-two (72) hours of your revocation notice. No new images using your Likeness may be generated after the revocation effective date.
- Unlicensed draft assets are deleted from Mirai’s infrastructure within thirty (30) days of revocation. Drafts that were generated but never approved or licensed are not subject to client survival rights and will be purged.
9. Platform Takedown Rights
Mirai reserves the right to remove, suspend, or decline to generate any image that in its sole judgement: violates our Acceptable Use Policy; depicts minors, nudity, violence, or hate content; impersonates a real person other than you; misrepresents a factual event; violates applicable law; or materially harms your reputation or Mirai’s. We will use reasonable efforts to notify you of a takedown that affects imagery tied to your Likeness.
10. Your Representations
By submitting this Release, you represent and warrant that:
- you are at least eighteen (18) years of age;
- you are the person depicted in every photograph you upload;
- you have the legal right to submit those photographs to Mirai, including any rights held by photographers, agencies, or prior employers;
- no photograph you upload contains a minor, a third party without their consent, or content that violates applicable law;
- you are not subject to any exclusivity or image-rights agreement that would prevent you from granting the licences in this Release.
10a. Independent Contractor Status
You and Mirai are independent contractors. Nothing in this Release creates or implies any employment relationship, agency, partnership, joint venture, or fiduciary relationship between you and Mirai or any of its Clients. You are not guaranteed any minimum bookings, earnings, or level of platform activity. You are solely responsible for your own taxes, social security contributions, professional insurance, and any other obligations arising under the laws of your jurisdiction. Mirai will provide the reporting reasonably necessary for you to make your own tax declarations but will not withhold taxes on your behalf unless required to do so by applicable law.
11. Indemnification
Mirai indemnifies you. Mirai will defend, indemnify, and hold you harmless against any third-party claim, action, demand, or proceeding (including reasonable legal fees) arising from: (a) a Client’s use of a licensed image outside the scope of their paid licence; (b) any defamatory, sexually explicit, misleading, or otherwise prohibited modification of a licensed image by a Client; (c) Mirai’s own breach of this Release; or (d) any unauthorised disclosure or sale of your Likeness Materials by Mirai or its sub-processors. Mirai will conduct the defence at its own cost, will keep you reasonably informed, and will not settle any claim that imposes liability or admits fault on your behalf without your prior written consent.
You indemnify Mirai. You agree to indemnify and hold Mirai harmless from any third-party claim arising from a breach of the representations in Section 10, including claims brought by photographers, agencies, or other rights-holders concerning the photographs you submitted.
Caps and procedure. Each party must give the other prompt written notice of any claim covered by this Section, in any event within thirty (30) days of becoming aware of it. Neither party will be liable to the other for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages.
This Release prevails for Talent. Where this Release and Mirai’s general Terms of Service conflict, this Release governs your relationship with Mirai and prevails. In particular: (a) the limitation of liability in Terms §12, including the USD 100 cap, does not apply to Mirai’s obligations to you under this Release, and never limits Mirai’s liability for unauthorised use, disclosure, or sale of your Likeness, a personal-data or security breach, or a failure to obtain a required approval; and (b) the indemnity in Terms §13, including §13(b) (Clients’ misuse of generated imagery), does not apply to you. Your only indemnity obligation is the narrow one stated above in this Section 11. Nothing in the general Terms reduces your non-waivable statutory rights (including the New York Fashion Workers Act, the GDPR, and applicable rights of publicity).
12. Data Protection
Mirai processes your Likeness Materials in accordance with our Privacy Policy. Your reference photographs are encrypted at rest. Access is limited to authorised Mirai operators and to the third-party AI generators (currently fal.ai, OpenAI, and Google) at the moment of each generation. You may exercise your data rights (access, export, deletion, rectification) at any time. For residents of jurisdictions with mandatory data-protection regimes (UK GDPR, EU GDPR, California CCPA/CPRA, and equivalents), the corresponding rights and notice obligations apply alongside this Release.
13. Governing Law
This Release is governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, U.S.A., without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules, except that nothing in this Release waives any non-waivable right you have under the mandatory law of your jurisdiction of residence, including the New York Fashion Workers Act, the California right of publicity, the UK and EU GDPR, and equivalent mandatory protections in your country of residence (including Australia and the UAE).
Dispute resolution. Before filing any legal action, the parties will first attempt to resolve any dispute by good-faith written correspondence within thirty (30) days of either party giving notice of the dispute. If unresolved after that period, the dispute will be referred to and finally resolved by binding arbitration administered by the Singapore International Arbitration Centre (SIAC) under its rules in force at the time of submission. The seat of arbitration will be Singapore, a neutral venue whose awards are enforceable in over 170 countries under the New York Convention; the tribunal will consist of one arbitrator, and the language will be English. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may seek urgent injunctive relief in a court of competent jurisdiction.
Consumer carve-out. Nothing in this Section limits any mandatory rights you have as a consumer in your jurisdiction of residence, and any mandatory consumer-protection law that requires a different forum or procedure will prevail to the extent of that requirement.
14. Changes to this Release
We may update this Release. Material changes will be emailed to you at least thirty (30) days before they take effect. If you do not accept a change, you may revoke consent as described in Section 8. Continued use of the Platform after the effective date constitutes acceptance of the revised Release.
15. Acceptance
By submitting an application to Mirai and by ticking the required consent boxes at submission, you agree to this Release, you confirm that you are at least eighteen years old, and you acknowledge that a timestamped record of your acceptance will be stored with your application.
