"We were quoted $36,000 by Sony for one song. Six months later we found Cleared. Same kind of song, licensed for $49." — Daniel R., documentary filmmaker

News reel B-roll, vintage NASA footage, public-domain shorts, stock cinematic clips. Cleared for commercial use.
Pre-cleared chapter excerpts from 2,000+ books. Read on your podcast, quote in your video, sample in your course.
8,000+ classical recordings ready for use. Bach, Mozart, Brahms — instant, royalty-free forever.
25,000+ SFX pre-cleared. Vintage typewriter, footsteps in snow, classic film effects.
Every use logs to your account. Exportable for festival submissions, legal audits, future buyers.
Every great work pulls from what came before — but the licensing system treats every creator like a criminal until they hire a lawyer, pay $5k upfront, and wait six months for a maybe. Cleared rebuilds it: one subscription, full catalog, instant use, license chain saved.
Per-piece licensing, royalty-free stock libraries, and copyright lawyers each solve a slice of this. Cleared replaces all three.
Three steps. No gatekeepers. No rights-holder phone tag. Your license is generated and stored before your next meeting.
Podcast, YouTube, film, music track, course, ad campaign. We point you at the catalogs that fit.
Search the catalog. Click "use." License generated, chain stored, file downloaded. 30 seconds.
Every Cleared asset is pre-licensed for commercial + monetized use. Run ads, sell the work, submit to festivals — no rights-holder calls, no surprise strikes.
Three commitments we hold to from day one. Every asset signed off, every use logged, every dispute insured.
Every asset is in our catalog because the owner signed off. We hold the master license; you get sub-licensed use under one flat subscription.
Every use generates a license receipt with timestamp, asset, and authorized use. Exportable for audits, festival submissions, future asset sales.
If a rights holder ever disputes an asset in our catalog, our insurance covers your legal costs up to $500k. Your project ships, your subscription stays.
We were quoted $36,000 by Sony for one song. We canceled the documentary. Six months later we found Cleared. Same kind of song — indie, period-appropriate — licensed for $49. The documentary's now on Netflix.

We make 4 brand videos a month. Used to spend $20k/month on per-piece music licenses. Cleared replaced it for $199/mo. Same quality, instant use, license docs auto-stored.
I'm a documentary director. Cleared's archival catalog let me find footage I couldn't have afforded otherwise. The license chain export was what got us into Tribeca.
Royalty-free libraries gave me garbage music. Cleared gave me real tracks that fit my show. My listeners ask what the theme song is.
