About
Identity is the new asset class.
FaceLedger is the license layer between real identity and generative AI. We build the infrastructure that connects generative AI to real people, documented, consent-based, traceable.
Mission
A world where identity is an asset, not a risk.
Our mission is to put the appearance of human identity in AI-generated advertising on a contractual footing. Whoever lends their face is asked, earns a share and can say no. Whoever uses it holds a contract that stands.
Vision
Making synthetic advertising more human.
AI shows more than ever that identity is worth protecting. FaceLedger wants to stand for that protection worldwide, first in Germany, then across Europe.

FaceLedger is in an early stage. We currently work with first people and selected companies to test licensing in real campaigns.
Founder

Marcel Mankus
Founder & CEO
Marcel was born in Frankfurt. He studied mechanical engineering in Aachen, then worked as a photographer and content producer for brands and completed a degree in media and communications management in Frankfurt. He has worked in advertising for years, today at the intersection of AI and concept. He founded FaceLedger because faces in advertising are now created in minutes, while the rights to use them are not. He lives with his family in Frankfurt.
