Rebelle 7.2 introduces the integration of an innovative new digital rights management service Wacom Yuify. As of today, you can protect your digital artworks, prove authorship, and manage usage rights with just a few clicks directly through Rebelle.
In the ever-evolving world of digital art and with the rise of AI tools, protecting and claiming ownership of your creations has become more important than ever. As artists transition from traditional canvases to digital mediums, the question of how to safeguard their intellectual property remains critical. We are thrilled to announce that Rebelle is one of the first software to integrate Yuify to help claim ownership of your artwork. Our goal is to ensure that your creative efforts are recognized and protected in the digital space as soon as the image is exported from Rebelle.
What is Yuify?
Yuify [ ̍ʝuːi.fai] is a blockchain-based solution designed by Wacom to help artists and creators assert ownership of their digital works. By leveraging the power of blockchain technology, Yuify provides a secure, tamper-proof method for registering and verifying the authenticity of digital art. This technology ensures that once your artwork is registered, it cannot be altered or duplicated without your consent, providing peace of mind and protecting your rights as a creator.
Wacom Yuify is a free service currently in its open beta stage available in the US, the European Union, plus the UK, Switzerland, and Norway, which works to protect paintings, photography, and other 2D artworks created in Rebelle 7, Adobe Photoshop, and Clip Studio Paint.
* Update November 15, 2024: Yuify beta is now available globally. Restrictions may still apply on countries with export sanctions issued by the UN, USA, EU, and Japan.
