Unpinched
You own the images you create
The moment you press the shutter, copyright is yours. Most platforms quietly benefit from the fact that a lot of people don't know that.
Unpinched has been built to make it easy to protect and market digital images. Your images, your rights, your terms. We handle the licensing, the provenance, and the transactions.
Unpinched is a curated collection, a portfolio space, and a sales platform. Not a stock library and not a social feed. We provide a permanent, verifiable record of your images, and offer a direct route for creators and buyers to connect.
Unpinched access is currently limited to our team of beta testers. If you would like to help with testing and are based in the UK, apply to be a beta tester.
How it works
Licence your work as a limited edition
An accepted image enters an edition of exactly 100 licences. Each one is individually watermarked — invisibly, with a unique serial number — so provenance is technically enforced, not just declared. Once all 100 licences are issued, no more are created. A public registry lists every licence and every use for each image in an edition. These protections make infringement of your copyright easier to detect and prove.
Licence prices start from £1 and rise with each sale in the edition. When the edition sells out, a secondary market opens — licences can be resold and the price history is transparent. Even at the lowest starting price, a fully sold edition will raise £198 for the creator. The secondary market will generate even more income because a percentage of the resale price is paid to the author.
Free licences are available too, for images you want to share openly. Free doesn't mean untraceable — every downloader still receives a formal licence, attribution is a binding condition, and use is reported back to you.
Let the market decide what your work is worth. Unpinched reviews, curates, describes, protects and markets your images. You sell directly to the buyer — no agency, no compromise.
