About TrainedOnYou
We are an independent litigation finance company that buys Anthropic copyright settlement claims from eligible authors, publishers, and rights-holders.
Who We Are
TrainedOnYou is an independent litigation finance company with a specific focus: buying AI copyright settlement claims. We specialize in the Bartz v. Anthropic settlement — the $1.5 billion class action settlement arising from Anthropic's alleged use of approximately 400,000 copyrighted books to train its Claude AI model.
Litigation finance is a straightforward concept: rights-holders who are owed money from legal proceedings often face a choice between waiting years for payment or taking an immediate cash offer. We provide the immediate cash option. We purchase your right to receive the settlement distribution; in exchange, you receive a lump sum payment within 5 business days of signing our assignment agreement. We then wait for — and collect — the eventual settlement distribution.
What Makes Us Different
The AI copyright settlement space is new territory. Many authors don't know they're on the Works List. Others know but aren't sure whether to sell or wait. We built TrainedOnYou to make this process simple, transparent, and fair:
- Competitive offers: We make competitive, immediate cash offers — paid within 5 business days of signing. No legal fees deducted from your payment.
- Attorney-reviewed agreements: Our assignment-of-proceeds contracts are reviewed by independent legal counsel before we send them to you. They're written in plain English, not legalese.
- No pressure: We give you time to review the agreement, consult your own attorney, and ask questions. We don't do high-pressure sales.
- Fast payment: Once you sign, we pay within 5 business days. Wire transfer or ACH.
- We take the risk: Once you're paid, the timing risk and distribution uncertainty are ours, not yours.
Our Focus: AI Copyright
The Anthropic settlement is one of the first major AI training data copyright cases to reach settlement. It won't be the last. Major music publishers (Universal, Concord, BMG) filed suit against Anthropic in early 2026 alleging infringement of 20,000+ copyrighted musical compositions. Similar cases are pending or expected against other AI companies.
We believe AI copyright is a defining issue for creators in the 2020s. Our work at TrainedOnYou sits at the intersection of that legal landscape and practical financial need: helping authors get compensated, on their own timeline, without having to navigate complex legal proceedings themselves.
Not Affiliated With Anthropic
TrainedOnYou is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or approved by Anthropic PBC. We are not involved in the settlement administration process. We are not attorneys and do not provide legal advice. We are an independent company that purchases settlement claim proceeds as a financial transaction.
If you have questions about your legal rights, the settlement terms, or whether you should participate in the settlement, we encourage you to consult a qualified attorney. The plaintiffs' class counsel can also answer questions about the settlement process.
Where We Are Based
TrainedOnYou is headquartered in Cyprus, Europe. We operate internationally and work with authors and rights-holders from any country whose works qualify under the Bartz v. Anthropic settlement class definition.
Our Experience
TrainedOnYou was founded by a team with deep roots in litigation finance and claims acquisition. Our lead specialist has over 10 years of experience structuring and closing claim purchases across multiple US class action settlements — including mass tort, consumer protection, and intellectual property cases.
We have worked with authors, publishers, and rights-holders across the US and Europe, and we understand exactly how settlement distributions work — and how long they take.
Our process is built around one principle: treat claimants fairly. That means competitive offers, plain-English agreements, and no pressure. We make our money by being patient. You shouldn't have to be.
