Before you ship or raise, know the answer. Apex Vanguard investigates the licenses inside your AI system and any IP exposure — and tells you, in writing, whether you're clear to sell.
AI IP licensing & strategy consulting — $400 / hour
It's the question that stops deals and spooks investors. Open-source model licenses, training-data rights, third-party dependencies, and patent exposure all hide in a modern AI stack. We find what's there — and what it means for you.
AI-augmented analysis of every layer where a license or an IP claim can live.
What models, fine-tunes, and weights you depend on — and whether their licenses (Apache, MIT, Llama, OpenRAIL, commercial) actually permit your use and resale.
Where your data and any third-party datasets come from, and whether you have the rights to train on and commercialize them.
A full bill-of-materials scan — copyleft (GPL/AGPL) traps, attribution duties, and license incompatibilities across your dependency tree.
Whether your system reads on known patents, and where you have freedom-to-operate risk — using our USPTO + prior-art research engine.
The bottom line: are you clear to sell, and under what terms — plus exactly what to fix before you do.
How to license, swap, or design around each issue — and how to turn your own IP into a licensable, defensible asset.
Senior AI-IP consultants, augmented by Apex Vanguard's own research AI — so you get depth fast.
