MARVIS

Music-rights intelligence for catalog and release administration

MARVIS (Music Artist Rights Virtual Intelligence) is a music-rights intelligence and catalog-organization product for artists and the people who manage, publish, distribute, or administer their work. It brings publishing, PRO and CMO policy, mechanical and neighboring rights, DSP rules, copyright, sync clearance, and AI-music policy into a single rights-focused workspace.

Its central purpose is to help users distinguish the different rights attached to a song and recording, monitor material changes, and identify unfinished rights actions. The site presents a ninety-day archive of rights intelligence, regional society and collector maps, and catalog-hygiene checks covering ownership, splits, registrations, collection, contracts, and release documentation.

Key features

Rights intelligence feed

Tracks changes from official societies, CMOs, DSPs, copyright offices, and AI-music policy sources when they may affect a registration, claim, or payout.

Publishing and PRO mapping

Separates songwriter splits, publisher share, performance, mechanicals, IPI numbers, and territorial administrators so composition rights can be documented and registered accurately.

Territory rights map

Maps performance, mechanical, neighboring-rights, and AI-policy watchpoints across North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, Latin America, Africa, and the Middle East.

DSP and platform policy tracking

Follows Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube, TikTok, SoundCloud, and distributor issues involving metadata, artificial streaming or fraud, AI disclosure, artist identity, and monetization.

Catalog health checks

Provides catalog-hygiene checkpoints for ownership, splits, PRO registrations, mechanical collection, AI usage, contracts, royalty audits, and sync assets.

Release and sync readiness

Frames release and clearance work around the separate requirements for ISRC, ISWC, master and publishing ownership, cue sheets, stems, splits, and approval authority.

Practical use cases

  • Prepare a release

    Before release, document songwriter splits, ISRC and ISWC identifiers, master and publishing ownership, and the relevant PRO, mechanical, or neighboring-rights administrators.

  • Map international collection

    Use the territory and society view to distinguish who handles performance, mechanical, and neighboring rights in key markets and reduce the risk of assigning one collection route to the wrong right.

  • Check platform requirements

    Review policy changes affecting metadata, artificial streaming, AI disclosure, artist identity, and monetization before delivering music to Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube, TikTok, or SoundCloud.

  • Improve catalog hygiene

    Organize ownership records, split confirmations, registrations, contracts, royalty-audit status, and AI authorship evidence while maintaining a view of unresolved catalog tasks.

  • Support sync clearance

    Assemble composition and master ownership details, cue sheets, stems, splits, and approval authority for a sync request so clearance decisions can be made from documented rights information.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Covers multiple rights desks instead of treating composition, master, performance, mechanical, neighboring, sync, and platform rights as interchangeable.
  • Combines current rights-policy monitoring with catalog-hygiene checkpoints for ownership, splits, registrations, collection, contracts, and AI-use documentation.
  • Provides regional context across six broad markets and names relevant societies, CMOs, DSPs, copyright offices, and distributors in its coverage.
  • Includes a ninety-day archive of material rights changes that can affect registrations, claims, or payouts.

Cons

  • The available product information does not document pricing, plans, setup requirements, integrations, collaboration features, or support terms.
  • The rights feed is refreshed on a cycle of about fifteen minutes, so it should not be treated as a second-by-second alerting system.
  • MARVIS organizes and monitors rights information; the source does not establish that it performs registrations, collects royalties, or provides legal advice on the user's behalf.
