Why this is canonical

'Attribution Ledger' imports the trust model of financial bookkeeping — immutable, reconcilable, auditable — into the attribution domain. On .ai, it positions as the agentic-era record-keeping layer for any system where credit must be traceable and dispute-resistant.

Where it fits

A few directions this coordinate opens —

AI content provenance
A ledger of contributions to AI-generated outputs — from training data to model weights to inference-time context — that supports audits and rights claims.
AI governance, content authenticity platforms
Creator economy / royalties
An auditable ledger that persists attribution for creative contributions, enabling dispute-resistant royalty and credit systems.
Creator platforms, music/media rights infrastructure
