Most founders think “I bought it, so I own it.” Not quite. The fastest way to tank your valuation—or let a contractor walk off with your code—is skipping the IP basics. In my new video, I break down (tactically, not theory): - 🔤 Trademarks: naming that actually protects your brand (™/℠/®—when to use which) - © Copyrights: the “work-for-hire” myth + how to lock down contractor-created assets - 🛡️ Trade secrets: prompts, datasets, and workflows—what to share vs. keep in the vault - 📥 DMCA takedowns: how to get copycats removed from platforms (fast) - 📃 Licenses: internal vs. commercial use, per-user vs. enterprise, and open-source “gotchas” (MIT/Apache vs. GPL) - 👉 Watch it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=79SVy_yNlbY Question for you: What’s the one IP area you’re least confident about right now—trademarks, contractor ownership, or open-source compliance? Drop it below and I’ll point you to the right next step.

@Danea Key @Michael Wacht @Jim Divine @Eric F @Jantore Suleimenov @Leticia Martinez Great to have you in the community! Tell us a bit more about your. What niche is your AI business in? Are you in the U.S. or international? Drop a link to your LinkedIn.

Congratulations @Wesley Penner for being our most engaged group member in August!!! I have not come up with any prizes yet... But here is where I need everybody's help. Aside from cash, what would be a prize that would be cool to get? What have you seen in other groups that you wish you could get?

Hey, all!!! Just a quick update... I know I've been MIA a bit. I'm in the thick of automating Express Legal Audit. I'm excited to get you all to try it once it's done. For now, I've had lots of frustrations, but also small wins. Just to give you an idea of what's involved in this automation: GHL, Zapier, Gavel, DocuSign... And I'm loving it and cannot wait till it's live.

Let's get to know each other! Comment below sharing what type of AI business you run, what is one legal issue that you need solved, and something you like to do for fun. 🥳 I will start. 🙋🏻‍♀️ I am Attorney Tatyana building BusinessAttorney.ai to help AI entrepreneurs legally protect their businesses. My biggest legal issue is the speed with which the AI world is changing and trying to keep up with all the laws to keep our contract templates relevant for you, guys. For fun, I love doing things outdoors: hiking, biking, skiing, etc. 🏔️
