CLIEAIR™ — open framework, protected name
CLIEAIR™ (Civil Liberties Investigative Enforcement by AI Review) is
Translator Series’ civic legal-technology framework. The framework itself has been
deliberately published into the public record — continuously since 2024 under
#CLIEAIR, with clieair.com held since June 2023 — so that its ideas
remain free to every person, permanently, from everyone, including us.
The CLIEAIR™ name and mark identify Translator Series, Inc. as the source of the framework and its forthcoming certification standard, based on continuous and exclusive use in commerce. Federal registration filings are in process. Use of the CLIEAIR™ mark to identify a product or service requires authorization; the framework’s ideas require none.
