Corrigon

Corrigon was a Tel Aviv-based[1] visual search company[2] founded in 2007 by Einav Itamar and Avinoam Omer. Corrigon's main business is in the field of copyright monitoring: Corrigon provided image monitoring that identified how and where images are being used in the internet and in print.

Corrigon's Image identifier used content-based image retrieval algorithms to identify images even when they have been colorized, cropped, or otherwise modified. The user's interface was web-based. The system identified all images found on the web that looked similar to the input images, and generated a periodic usage report for Corrigon's clients.

Corrigon was acquired by eBay in October 2016 for $20 million.[3][1]
