Music licensing is a $3B market but intermediaries take $1.5B.
Music Supervisors Face Uncertainty
Last-minute rights issues can derail deals and cause legal headaches.
Old Infrastructure Can't Scale
Fragmented AI-driven content overwhelms legacy payment systems.
Intermediaries Drain Artist Revenue
Over 50% of sync income taken by labels, agencies, etc.
Opaque Deals Breed Disputes
Nontransparent transactions fuel legal battles and mistrust.
Cooperative ownership unlocks $1.5B.
One-stop Rights
All IP in one place — solving legal disputes before they happen and bringing all players onto the same creatively aligned co-op team.
Tokenized Assets
New token revenue tracking allows payments at the speed of AI content systems.
Direct Revenue Flow
No intermediaries means revenue flows straight to token holders, unlocking $1.5B for Amerge members and investors.
Transparent Pay
Every dollar flowing in and out is visible — to build trust and align incentives between makers, placers, operators, and storytellers.
Changing the game.
We're a multiplayer cooperative of world-class songwriters, producers, composers, technical sound designers, music supervisors, clearance experts, and operators. We've created the co-op mode for sync licensing. But first — let's review the old legacy game mode.
- 3 separate teams, separate incentives
- 7 rounds of relayed handoffs
- Money lost to middle layers
- One unified team, one incentive
- 5 rounds, everyone in sync
- More money for music makers

The
Residency
A one-week immersive experiment in collective creation. Bringing 20 artists, technologists, and industry operators together to launch a new way to make music for film, TV, games, and ads.
