Unlicensed music on social media is a costly problem for both brands and rightsholders.

Brands have generated a massive backlog of unlicensed liability on their social media channels. Major labels and publishers have started to take action. We work with rightsholders to find unlicensed uses, take control of who uses their music and get fairly compensated for its use.

FAQ

Do I need to send you my whole catalog?

No. You can start with a handful of key titles or a single artist. For larger catalogs we can work from standard identifiers like ISRC or imports like CWR, DDEX and CSV.

How do you get paid?

We work on contingency. We take a percentage of what we recover, so there's no upfront cost.

Will this damage our relationships with brands?

Most brands didn't intend to infringe. We aim for licensing outcomes that turn them into paying customers.

Isn't music on TikTok and Instagram already licensed?

Platform licenses generally cover personal, non-commercial use. Brand advertising and promotional content usually require a commercial license.

Which platforms do you cover?

We focus on TikTok and Instagram, two of the biggest platforms for brand video set to music.

Are you a law firm?

We're a recovery specialist working alongside qualified legal counsel. Where litigation is needed, we work with chosen partner firms to prepare evidence as required.

How do you find commercial uses of my music?

We monitor brand accounts across TikTok and Instagram and match the audio against your catalog.

How do you know whether a use is already licensed?

Each use is checked against your licensing history before any brand outreach.
