The problem
Cities wrestle with tags and unauthorised pieces that frustrate property owners and councils, yet many creators lack pathways to earn from their skills or find sanctioned spaces. Businesses want vibrant façades but worry about quality, trust and logistics—from brief to permission to payment.
Without a transparent way to match demand and talent, opportunities are missed, reputations suffer and neighbourhoods lose out on the place-making power of well-executed street art. Informal arrangements can leave artists underpaid and owners uncertain about upkeep or longevity.
The solution
Regen offers vetted artist profiles, style portfolios and ratings; businesses post briefs, set budgets and timelines, and manage contracts and escrow payments in-app. Built-in guidance on permits and maintenance, geotagged showcases and community curation elevate public spaces, providing artists with sustainable income and cities with curated, legal street art.
