The first human-first 3D & Gen AI marketplace.
We fairly compensate you for your 3D assets & any AI creations based on your work.
We believe in ethical AI, and think everyone should too.
TLDR;
1. We don’t like the direction AI companies have been taking.
2. We believe artists should be compensated if their work is used in generative AI.
3. We offer a marketplace where artists can make passive income from assets downloaded through subscription, generative AI that was influenced by their work, single purchases with a fair split, and from participating in the marketplace -- so, even if their models don't sell, they can still make money.

AI is only as good as its training data.
Using AI to generate art is here to stay. But, that doesn’t mean it needs to suck.
We don’t like the direction AI companies have been taking – they take for granted the beauty, labor, and history behind an artist’s work. We believe that if your art was used in the training data of a generative AI, you should get compensated!

Get income from your original assets and from the generative AI derivatives.
You continue to own your assets and all copyright. You just give us the right to license it out to others :)
Everyone that has 3D digital assets in the marketplace gets compensated regardless of whether someone downloads your asset or not.
That’s right. At Backpack, we believe that artists who enrich our marketplace with assets are important too! The more assets we have, the better for everyone!

FAQs
We get it... it's hard to wrap your head around something so quirky and new. Compensate everyone? Compensate artists for the generative AI derivatives? Affordable 3D assets with a single commercial license? Whattttt?
Don't worry. You have questions, and we have answers!
Yes. Although we live in a capitalist world, that doesn't mean we have to be overly greedy. This is why we think that everyone that is actively contributing to the marketplace, increasing its size and therefore its utility, should be compensated. This is a separate policy from our ethical AI compensation policy, but just as important. What's the catch? You need to submit enough models to qualify for this. We are still determining the amount, but we expect it to be between 20-30 per user (this is so that revenue doesn't get diluted too much).
Yes. Because your models get used as training data, whenever someone generates a new model that was inspired (even though slightly) by your work, you will get some revenue!
We know... it's crazy! Nobody is doing it because they don't want to share the money! We are a human- and artist-first company. We care about you because WE ARE YOU.
