Example Output
Example 1: Film Sync Deal Analysis
Proposal: Independent film distributor requests rights to sync your track in a feature film, theatrical + streaming, North America only, 7-year term, $5,000 upfront, no backend royalties.
Analysis Output:
- ✅ Territory scope reasonable for indie feature
- ✅ Upfront fee aligns with theatrical + SVoD for North America
- ⚠️ 7-year term is fixed; confirm if renewable
- ⚠️ No backend royalties specified; flag for renegotiation if film reaches wide release
- Compliance Score: 85% | Recommended Action: Approve with backend clause addendum
Example 2: Commercial Advertising Sync Request
Proposal: National ad agency requests 18-month exclusive license, broadcast TV + digital display, all territories, $15,000 upfront, derivative works permitted.
Analysis Output:
- ✅ Exclusive scope appropriate for branded campaign
- ✅ Compensation competitive for global broadcast + digital
- ⚠️ Derivative works clause too broad; limit to edits under 10 seconds
- ⚠️ All territories creates premium rate impact; upsell for Asia-Pacific separately
- Compliance Score: 72% | Recommended Action: Renegotiate derivative rights and territory limits
