“I am sure that sooner or later, there will be a charge for TinEye but to me its worth it. After much negotiations between the Romanian publisher and myself, I settled for $1700 (1000 euros). I was advised by a Romanian law firm that under Romanian law, the most I could obtain was three times the price I would have charged for the image in the first place (if I had taken it to court). The publisher said that they would normally pay between 75 and 200 euros per image which was far below my expectations (and FotoQuote) I baulked at this and to add a little leverage, I advised them that I would demand that all copies of the book be withdrawn and destroyed at their expense. I then received the offer for 1,000 euros” – Sheila Smart

According to Leila Boujnane, CEO of TinEye

“TinEye does for images what Google does for text. We are not limited by words,

Google can only find an image if a particular search word is in proximity to it. We have the ability on a large scale to tell somebody where one of their images

has appeared and how it’s being used.”
