AUSTIN, Texas, March 27, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Today, BeatStars is disrupting the music industry once again by making the clearance of intellectual property rights more streamlined, affordable, and efficient with the announcement of the Creator Rights Agency. The Creator Rights Agency is an end-to-end service that allows creators to get data-driven recommendations from experts for licensing, protecting, and getting paid for their intellectual property. The CRA consolidates management, legal, and accounting services needed by creators in today’s music industry, charging a 10% commission only on the deals that are successfully negotiated by the CRA. This allows creators to retain more of their hard earned revenue, lower their costs related to closing deals, and provides creators with the ability to build a solid team - no matter the stage in their career. Creators have the flexibility to retain the services of the CRA on a non-exclusive and deal by deal basis.

Key Points: 
  • The Creator Rights Agency is an end-to-end service that allows creators to get data-driven recommendations from experts for licensing, protecting, and getting paid for their intellectual property.
  • The CRA’s state of the art portal and technology allows creators to submit requests directly to the CRA team of experts.
  • These experts use data to help creators negotiate deals, execute final agreements, receive up-front fees, and collect any backend royalties owed to them from artists, labels, and even SoundExchange.
  • This is just one more way that BeatStars stands out as easy, comprehensive, and trusted by music creators worldwide.”
