D-SAFE

A trust label for educational works

Which educational content can you trust?

Educational content is everywhere, and more of it is AI-written every day. Readers and libraries can't easily tell who wrote a work, whether it's safe, or whether it's free to share. D-SAFE reviews each work against a public standard and gives approved works the D-SAFE label.

Real author: a human wrote it, and it isn't copied.
Safe content: it avoids every topic on our public exclusion list.
Free to share: it is public domain or properly licensed.
Every decision, including a refusal, comes with a written reason.

What problem are we solving?

Educators & Authors

Need a trusted way to show their work is really theirs, safe for learners, and free to share.

Institutions & Libraries

Need to know a digital work can be trusted and legally shared before adding it to a collection.

Researchers, Authorities & Regulators

Need a dated record of what was checked on a work and what was decided.

Copyright Holders

Need a clear way to report misuse of their work and have unauthorised copies removed.

A refusal without a reason is censorship. A refusal with a reason is stewardship.
