01 / START WITH WHAT YOU HAVE
Creative life is messy.
Your records can be clear.
Not every artist has a metadata department. Not every author has an administrator. Not every estate inherits an organized archive. Serious creative work deserves serious infrastructure, regardless of budget.
01 / GATHER
Give the pieces a place.
Organize music, writing, metadata, rights records, registrations, agreements and creative history in your private Catalog Vault.
02 / CONNECT
Keep the context.
Connect works, people, identifiers, evidence and provenance. Keep unknowns visible instead of turning missing information into a claim.
03 / KEEP CONTROL
Take your data with you.
Work alone or invite people you trust. Your catalog data and exports remain yours. Basic catalog control belongs in Free Core.
02 / COPYRIGHT PASSPORT
The story behind
the work.
Copyright Passport brings assertions, supporting evidence, contributors and provenance into a connected record. The free workbook is available today; an embedded Vault experience is planned.
For AI-assisted and AI-generated music, document tools, source notes and human contributions alongside the work. Make the process understandable.
MMC documents assertions, evidence and provenance. It does not declare ownership or determine copyright eligibility.
ONE WORK. ITS CONNECTED HISTORY.

COMMUNITY CONCEPT / ILLUSTRATIVE ROLES01
Agree the work
You and your professional agree the task, deliverables, fees and timeline.
02
Control the access
Choose which records they can access and for how long. Keep access scoped to the agreed work.
03
Review the delivery
Review each delivery through Work Orders and owner approval. Scope further tasks as the relationship grows.
FOR PROFESSIONALS & FREELANCERS
Your expertise has
a home here, too.
Turn your skills into paid client work: catalog cleanup, metadata preparation, licensing readiness, archive research or rights documentation. Work with independent creators, DIY labels and the people caring for creative legacies.
PROFESSIONAL WORKFLOW
One task. A project.
A lasting relationship.
Terms agreed together.
Bring your clients into MMC, or collaborate on an arranged match. Clients invite you to the agreed records; review the offer and terms, complete the work and submit it for owner review.
See the Work Order workflowProfessional services are paid separately from Free Core. Matching, qualification checks and payments are arranged directly; MMC records the agreed terms and work.
03 / KNOW WHAT COMES NEXT
A clear next step.
A shared scope of work.
Catalog Health shows which records need attention and why. Turn that attention into clear Work Orders, so the owner and the professional understand the scope, deliverables and review.

How to Copyright a Song
A starting point for understanding music copyright and registration.

Think through the records behind an ownership claim.
Read the guide ↗AI PERMISSIONS / MMC ON SUBSTACKDo You Allow AI? That Question Is Already Too Simple.
Why permission needs a specific use, scope and supporting evidence.
Read the guide ↗Questions, answered.
How do I copyright a song?
In the United States, copyright generally arises when an original work is fixed in a tangible form, such as a recording or written score. Registration is a separate process through the U.S. Copyright Office. A musical composition and its sound recording are distinct works; check the appropriate application and requirements for each. MMC helps organize your information and evidence. It does not register your copyright. See the Copyright Office’s music registration resources ↗.
Is MMC free?
The Copyright Passport workbook is free to download and use for your internal operations. Catalog Vault is coming soon, with a permanent Free Core planned for basic catalog records and export. Custom Mods and implementation are paid work with scope and fees agreed in advance.
Does MMC prove ownership?
MMC documents ownership assertions, evidence and provenance. It does not determine ownership or copyright eligibility, and a Passport is not a government registration or a legal ruling.
Where can I download the Copyright Passport workbook?
Visit the free workbook page, complete the short form, then choose “Download the workbook.” Version 1.1 includes separate AI provenance, permissions and evidence logs.
How do I contact My Music Copyrights?
