Coreflow, a Sydney-based company, operates the AI pornography platform OurDream. The site states it bans content depicting anyone under 18, yet age-estimation software flagged multiple characters as 15 or younger.
Coreflow, a Sydney startup, runs the AI-generated pornography website OurDream, which reports more than 48 million unique monthly visits. The company advertises engineering salaries up to $800,000 and growth-team pay up to $450,000 while claiming 20 million users since its launch last year.
OurDream requires users to pass an age-verification page before accessing explicit material. Its posted rules prohibit any depiction of individuals under 18, including characters whose body proportions read as minors regardless of stated age.
Age-estimation findings The ABC applied the Rigr age-estimation tool to 17 AI-generated characters found in the site's explicit section. Sixteen were assessed at 16 or under even after accounting for the tool's margin of error; the oldest result was 17.2 years.
Colm Gannon of the International Centre for Missing and Exploited Children reviewed several images. He stated that engagement with child-like avatars can familiarize users with sexualized depictions of minors and may lower barriers to offending.
Company background and moderation Coreflow is owned by Dream Studio USA, which also owns a Cyprus-registered entity named Tektopia. The four founders include three Sydney University graduates and one Duke University graduate; prior employers listed are Meta, Mastercard, and venture-capital firms.
One user reported seeing violent content that violated site rules and said complaints did not remove the material for several days. Australian Commonwealth law prohibits sexual depictions of anyone under 18.
