What we do

We turn professional archives
into AI-ready assets

You hold the rights. We handle evaluation, preparation, licensing, and reporting — and share the revenue from what actually gets licensed.

You keep full ownership

AiCASTO never purchases your archive. You remain the rights holder throughout our entire partnership — we act on your behalf, not in your place.

Revenue share on actual payments

Your share is calculated exclusively from revenue AiCASTO actually receives — not from submitted or approved content. Only licensed and paid.

Transparent quarterly reporting

Partners receive structured line-item reports showing content status at every stage — from submission through qualification, approval, and licensing.

Commercial confidentiality

AiCASTO's buyers and commercial partners are confidential. This protects the relationships that make licensing possible — and your long-term earning potential.

How it works

From archive to revenue
in four steps

A structured process — from initial inquiry through to your first payment.

01

Submit

Share basic information about your archive — volume, format, content types, rights situation. Rough estimates are fine to start.

02

Evaluate

AiCASTO assesses technical quality, verifies the rights position, and checks commercial fit. We identify what's licensable and what needs preparation.

03

License

We prepare, package, and submit qualified content to AI buyers. We manage all commercial relationships on your behalf.

04

Earn

When content generates revenue, your share is calculated and paid. Quarterly reports keep you informed at every stage.

Tech Specs

The minimum technical baseline we can work from. Material outside this profile is still welcome and assessed individually.

You don't need to deliver final-format files. AiCASTO handles all transcoding and reformatting in-house. The specifications below are simply the starting point we can work from.

Archive doesn't fit the profile?

Send it anyway. Every archive is assessed individually. We work with a wide range of technical quality and take on all technical preparation ourselves — so the profile above is a guide, not a barrier.

Why AiCASTO

Built for serious
archive owners

We understand broadcast rights, technical preparation, and the requirements of AI buyers. Most archives can't get there alone.

End-to-end commercialisation

Evaluation, rights review, technical preparation, metadata structuring, packaging, submission, revenue tracking, and reporting — all managed by AiCASTO.

Multilingual expertise

We focus on underserved language markets where AI demand is high and licensed supply is scarce — including CIS, Caucasus, Eastern Europe, and the Middle East.

Rights-first approach

We identify music rights, talent / NIL restrictions, third-party footage, and territorial limitations before any submission. Your compliance is our responsibility.

Independent audit available

Partners can request independent verification of revenue calculations via a third-party auditor bound by confidentiality — ensuring trust without exposing commercial terms.
