## Use cases

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="Character licensing" %}
A studio owns the rights to a popular character.

They register it on Dominium with programmable terms:

* $10,000 for game usage
* $50,000 for film usage
* 5% revenue share for merchandise

A licensee discovers the character in the marketplace.

They pay the fee on-chain.

They receive an NFT license that proves usage rights.

Royalties stream automatically when revenue is reported.
{% endtab %}

{% tab title="AI training data" %}
A photographer has 50,000 high-quality images.

They register the dataset on Dominium.

They restrict usage to AI training inside TEE enclaves.

An AI company stakes to access the marketplace.

They license the dataset.

Training runs inside a Phala secure enclave.

The original images never leave the enclave.

Only allowed outputs leave.

Payments settle automatically.
{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Enterprise IP portfolio" %}
A Fortune 500 company has 10,000 patents sitting unused.

They bulk-register the portfolio on Dominium.

They publish tiered pricing.

Other companies can now discover and license patents programmatically.

Deals that took months now complete in minutes.

The enterprise converts “dark IP” into revenue.
