Start with a catalog decision

Propose this pilot

Beggars' archive administrators could review a hypothetical reissue request, attaching recording evidence, represented composition shares and artist consent requirements to the proposed terms.

Your team chooses the work and confirms the rights it administers. Clef can record creator preferences, the proposed AI use, the reviewer's decision, and agreed credit and reporting terms.

Run it in your infrastructure with your own team, or have Clef set it up and hand it over. Pilot organizations receive 50% off Clef’s standard setup fee for the agreed scope. Hosting and ongoing services are scoped separately.

Does this reflect your organization?

Your licensing team can refine the catalog scope, suggest a better starting point, or request an update to this profile.
