Research
Our peer-reviewed paper The Density Imperative demonstrates that dense metadata significantly impacts VLM capability:
- +25.5% improvement with 111-field Golden Codex enrichment
- -54.4% degradation with sparse 10-20 word captions
- +160% semantic coverage vs raw captions

Important: What You're Paying For
Pricing applies to structured AI training metadata only -- not the source images. All 2M+ source artworks are CC0/public domain from partner museums and freely available from their original APIs. What Intelligence Aeternum provides is:
- Golden Codex enrichment: 111-field NEST metadata generated by multi-model VLM analysis (Gemini + Claude + GPT-4o)
- Compliance manifests: Auto-generated AB 2013 + EU AI Act Article 53 documentation
- Pipeline services: Upscaling, metadata infusion, C2PA signing, hash registration, permanent storage
- Structured datasets: Pre-enriched collections optimized for AI training workflows
