§ 01 · THE JOB

What actually gets moved.

Rights Management is the operations layer that turns an ownership claim into a defensible claim. Every release is registered with the major Content ID systems on the day of distribution. Every re-upload that matches the master is flagged, reviewed, and, depending on the artist's policy, claimed, monetized, or removed.

When disputes happen (and at scale, they always happen), the artist doesn't fight alone. We represent the claim with the existing evidence registry, return disputed re-uploads to their correct state, and keep a log of every dispute that touches the catalog. No claim gets settled quietly.

§ 02 · WHAT YOU GET
01.

Cross-platform Content ID registration.

Every track is registered with the major Content ID systems within days of release. Re-uploads are flagged automatically; the artist sets the response policy.

02.

Automated takedown flow.

Detected infringements queue for one-click takedown. Standard violations resolve in hours, not weeks.

03.

Official ownership registry.

A dated, evidence-backed registry for every track, every writer share, every territory. The registry belongs to the artist, exportable, portable.

04.

Dispute representation when claims clash.

When a claim is disputed, we represent the artist's position with the existing evidence. Outcomes are logged. No quiet settlements.

The re-upload had 80,000 plays before I knew it existed. Then it didn't.

§ 03 · UNDER THE HOOD

Content ID registration is a fingerprinting pass run on the master file. The fingerprint enters the major detection systems; matches surface in the artist's dashboard with the disputed URL, platform, upload date, and offending channel metadata.

The artist sets the policy: monetize, claim, or remove. Most artists choose remove for derivative re-uploads and monetize for legitimate uses of the master (DJ sets, reaction videos, etc.). Policy can differ per track.

§ 04 · ADJACENT

A defended catalog is one that earns. The income shows up in Publishing (composition royalties) and on the uploads themselves through Distribution. Rights Management sits between them and keeps the income lanes clean.
