AI-assisted music creation is breaking the attribution chain. Every co-created track introduces gaps that compound across distribution, licensing, and royalty collection — until a dispute makes them impossible to ignore.
The music rights ecosystem was built for human creators with clear ownership chains. AI-assisted production breaks every assumption that system is built on — and the gaps don't show up until a collecting society, a platform, or a court asks for proof you don't have.
When an AI tool co-creates a track, the contribution boundary is unclear. Labels and artists can't agree on what was human and what wasn't — and no standard documentation exists.
DSPs and distributors require clean contributor data. AI-assisted tracks often go live with placeholder or incomplete metadata — creating downstream royalty errors that are expensive to unwind.
ASCAP, PRS, SGAE, SACEM — each society has its own registration standards. AI-generated contributions don't map cleanly to any of them. Royalties stall, disputes accumulate.
A track created in the US, distributed in Europe, and collected in Latin America passes through three different legal frameworks. Without traceable attribution, each handoff is a liability.
Describe your catalogue and creative process. MARCO generates the documentation that collecting societies, platforms, and regulators need to see.
Tell MARCO how your tracks were created — which elements were human, which were AI-assisted, which tools were used, and who was involved.
MARCO identifies every contributor — human and AI — and maps the ownership structure against the relevant collecting society frameworks and distribution standards.
A complete, jurisdiction-aware attribution record — structured for DSP delivery, collecting society registration, and cross-border licensing workflows.
For disputed catalogues, regulatory inquiries, or high-value licensing deals, a qualified IP attorney reviews and certifies your attribution documentation.
From the studio session to the royalty statement — MARCO maps attribution obligations across the full music rights lifecycle.
Structured records of AI tool involvement in the creative process — what was generated, what was modified, and what the human contribution was at each stage.
MARCO formats attribution data for ASCAP, BMI, PRS, SACEM, SGAE, and 150+ societies worldwide — so registrations don't stall on metadata mismatches.
Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube, and TIDAL each have their own contributor metadata requirements. MARCO generates distribution-ready metadata that meets all of them.
For tracks released across multiple jurisdictions, MARCO maps which rights framework applies in each territory and what documentation each requires.
MARCO traces the royalty entitlement chain from master and publishing rights through to collection — identifying where AI contribution affects distribution calculations.
Audit-ready documentation that establishes the attribution baseline before a dispute arises — the single most effective way to avoid costly rights litigation.
Managing AI-assisted catalogues where attribution documentation is missing or incomplete.
Processing registrations for AI-assisted works that don't fit existing membership frameworks.
DSPs and streaming services needing traceable contributor records for licensing compliance.
Independent creators using AI tools who need to document ownership before distribution.
