What it is worth

Exclusive representation and non-exclusive buyer licenses

An exclusive buyer license can restrict future deals, so it must be distinguished from ownership and from appointing a licensing representative. Fiund grants non-exclusive buyer licenses and does not offer buyer exclusivity.

The short version

  1. Fiund’s exclusive appointment concerns AI-licensing representation while submitted content is active.
  2. Each buyer license Fiund grants remains non-exclusive.
  3. Other providers’ contract terms must be read individually; this guide supplies no exclusivity premium.

Published examples and terms

Each example describes the named source and its stated scope. These are not Fiund prices or guaranteed individual payouts.

Non-exclusive buyer licensesFiund contributor agreement

The agreement distinguishes Fiund’s exclusive representation from the non-exclusive licenses granted to buyers.

Two different meanings of exclusive

Fiund’s contributor agreement appoints it to handle AI licensing. That does not give one buyer exclusive use of the recordings or transfer the contributor’s ownership.

Compare another provider’s proposal

Identify the assets, uses, territory and duration affected by any restriction. A permanent exclusive license and a transfer of copyright are not automatically the same transaction.

Limits to the comparison

This page does not quote an exclusivity multiple or suggest that Fiund will negotiate buyer exclusivity. If an existing agreement restricts AI licensing, establish what it permits before submitting the material.
