Digital Rights Protection

Your music lives Online. We make sure it's Protected.

Digital Rights Protection

In the online frontier, your music is a living asset. Digital rights protection ensures your recordings, compositions, and brand are defended, identified, and monetized wherever they travel.

What Is It?

Digital rights protection is the ongoing identification, monitoring, and enforcement of your rights across streaming platforms, social media, video sites, UGC networks, and the wider web. It aligns metadata, registers fingerprints, detects misuse, and recovers revenue through claims, takedowns, and rights corrections. It’s the connective tissue between your catalog and the ecosystem that pays you.

How It Works

Step 1: Discovery & Scoping - We audit your catalog, ingest assets, and map rights holders and splits.

Step 2: Canonicalization - We unify titles, credits, identifiers, and territories to establish your authoritative metadata set.

Step 3: Registration - Your works are onboarded into fingerprinting systems and rights programs, with watchlists set for priority tracks.

Step 4: Monitoring & Enforcement - We run continuous detection, file claims or takedowns, and resolve conflicts with evidence and clarity.

Step 5: Optimization - We correct metadata at the source, prevent future leakage, and tune policies for coverage, speed, and brand tone.

Step 6: Reporting - You receive periodic summaries with action items, recovered revenue, and next‑step recommendations.

    Additional Information

    What Sonichype Offers

    Sonichype provides a comprehensive suite of tools and strategies to protect your digital catalog:

    Metadata Authority:

    Organize Your Music Data

    We make sure your songs have the right titles, credits, and codes so platforms know they belong to you. This prevents confusion and ensures royalties flow to the right place.

    Fingerprinting & Registration:

    Recognize Your Music Everywhere

    We register your tracks in systems that can automatically spot them — even if someone uploads your music without permission. That way, your work is detected and protected across sites like YouTube, TikTok, and streaming platforms.

    Platform Claims & Monetization:

    Claim and Get Paid

    When your music is used online, we step in to claim it so the money comes back to you. If there’s ever a dispute over ownership, we help resolve it quickly and fairly.

    Infringement Monitoring:

    Watch for Misuse

    We keep an eye out 24/7 for leaks, pirated versions, or unauthorized uploads of your songs. If something pops up, we act fast to protect your work.

    DMCA Takedown Management:

    Remove Infringing Content

    If your music is being used without your approval, we file official requests to remove it. We handle the paperwork and track the process so your brand stays safe.

    Streaming Delivery QA:

    Check Before Release

    Before your music goes live, we run checks to catch errors like duplicate uploads or missing information that could cost you royalties.

    Catalog Control:

    Keep Your Catalog in Order

    We organize different versions of your songs, map where they’re available, and make sure everything is consistent across platforms.

    Rights Conflict Resolution:

    Resolve Conflicts

    Sometimes multiple companies claim the same track. We step in to sort it out, making sure your rights are clear and protected.

    Revenue Recovery Reporting:

    Show You the Results

    You’ll get easy-to-read reports showing what we’ve claimed, what we’ve taken down, what conflicts we’ve resolved, and how much money we’ve recovered.

    Policy Alignment:

    Protect Your Brand

    All of this is done in line with platform rules and community guidelines, so your reputation stays strong while your rights are defended.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    This FAQ is built to give artists, managers, and rights holders clarity on how our protection and enforcement services work. From understanding the difference between claims and takedowns to knowing how fan uploads are handled, you’ll find straightforward answers that demystify the process.
    1What’s the difference between claims and takedowns?
    Claims monetize eligible uses, while takedowns remove infringing content. We choose the path that maximizes value and aligns with your goals.
    2Will fan uploads be blocked?
    We can monetize, whitelist, or remove on a per-track basis. The policy is tailored to your brand and release strategy.
    3Do you replace my distributor or PRO?
    No. We complement distribution and publishing by fixing data at the source and enforcing rights across platforms.
    4How long until I see results?
    Initial wins often land within weeks of registration; deeper catalog cleanup compounds over subsequent reporting cycles.
