Cashmere and KGL Partner to Power the Commercial and Technical Rails for Premium Content in AI

Partnership integrates Cashmere’s premium data AI infrastructure with KGL’s publisher platform, enabling seamless commercialization, governance, and protection of premium content for AI

Glen Alen, VA and Salt Lake City, UT—March 9, 2026—Cashmere, the data infrastructure platform bridging premium content and the AI ecosystem, and KnowledgeWorks Global Ltd. (KGL), the comprehensive editorial, production, and technology provider, today announced a strategic partnership that brings together Cashmere’s premium data infrastructure with KGL’s publisher platform and services.

The partnership enables KGL’s customers to seamlessly manage, commercialize, track, and implement their premium content within AI systems—with protection and scalability at the forefront. Built on Cashmere’s proprietary infrastructure, the integration provides token-level access control, rights management, usage tracking, and revenue settlement, giving publishers the tools to protect their intellectual property while unlocking new revenue streams in the AI economy.

For KGL, the partnership reflects a deliberate investment in ensuring publishers have a clear and viable path to monitor and monetize their content as AI continues to reshape the industry. For Cashmere, the collaboration underscores the critical importance of data governance, integration, and performance as foundational requirements for how premium content lives and operates within AI systems.

“KGL has always been committed to helping publishers navigate change with confidence,” said Atul Goel, President of KGL. “Our partnership with Cashmere directly addresses the pressing challenge of understanding and controlling how our publishers’ content is used in AI, and ensuring they are fairly compensated for it. This is a natural extension of our mission to deliver solutions that future-proof the publishers we serve.”

“We are at a pivotal moment for publishers that requires not just licensing agreements, but real infrastructure,” said Jonathan Munk, Co-Founder & CEO of Cashmere. “Our partnership with KGL is a reflection of the kind of industry partnerships we’re building to make the managed, governed, commercially viable path for content in AI a reality.”

This announcement comes on the heels of Cashmere’s recently closed funding led by Reach Capital and a growing group of industry partners.

The partnership is available to KGL’s customers effective immediately.
