Unreleased tracks leak, finished records get ripped from streaming, and reuploads collect plays under someone else's account. Clampdown watches the catalog and files the claims.
Unreleased tracks escape from studios, promo lists, and mastering handoffs, then spread through Discord and Telegram in hours.
Ripper sites convert streams to MP3 at scale. Your catalog becomes a download library with no play counted.
Full tracks and albums posted to video and audio platforms by accounts that are not you, collecting the plays and the ad revenue.
Distributors and impersonators publish releases under your artist name, splitting your listeners and your royalties.
The surfaces we watch for music, and the ones copies usually pass through on the way to a search result.
The parts of the loop that matter most for this medium.
Monitoring can start before release date, when a leak does the most damage to a campaign.
Findings are tied to the track and release they belong to, so you can see which parts of the catalog leak most.
Reuploads are reported through each platform's copyright route, and repeat uploaders are tracked across runs.
Artist-name impersonation on streaming and social is filed as brand impersonation, not just as a copyright claim.
