Why a count is worth ten minutes of your time
Most brand teams have no idea how many of their posts would fail a music check. That’s not a criticism. Posts go up fast, creators pick their own sounds, and the person who boosted a video six months ago may not work there anymore. Nobody keeps a list.
Record labels do keep a list. They monitor brand accounts, save the posts, and count each song separately when they send a claim. In the cases on our lawsuit tracker, brands like Kroger, Quince, Crumbl and DSW were sued over dozens or hundreds of songs at once, and US law allows up to $150,000 per work if the use is found to be willful. A number like “14 red posts” turns a vague worry into something you can act on this week.
It also helps internally. If you’ve been trying to get budget or attention for this, a count from an outside reviewer lands better than “I think we might have a problem.”
What you get
In about a minute, you’ll see:
- Your count. How many of your recent public posts are red, yellow and green.
- A few examples. Real posts from your account, with what we found on each, so you can see the problem for yourself.
- The likely cause. Whether the risk comes mostly from your own posts, from creator and affiliate videos, or from posts you’ve boosted as ads.
Here’s what the colors mean:
Red: fix now
A commercial song that isn’t cleared for brand use, or creator content running after its rights ended. These are the posts labels and creators file claims over.
Yellow: check soon
Something we can’t confirm from the outside, like an “original sound” that may be a hit song or a creator post with no license on record.
Green: OK to run
Licensed or original audio, and no rights issue we can see. Keep it up.
How it works
- You type your handle. Your brand’s TikTok or Instagram account. Nothing to install, no login.
- We scan your public posts. We pull your recent posts and identify the music in each one, then compare it against licensed libraries and our own list of songs named in label lawsuits, which grows every time a new case is filed.
- You see your count in about a minute. How many posts are red, yellow and green, with one real example in full. Create a free account to see the rest and how to fix them.
- Want it confirmed? The free check is automatic. In the full check, an IP-trained reviewer confirms every flag and covers creator videos, affiliates and ads too.
A quick example
Say you run social for a skincare brand. You post three or four times a week, and you’ve got about 40 affiliates making TikTok Shop videos. Last quarter you boosted the ten best affiliate videos as Spark Ads because they sold well.
Your free check comes back with 9 red posts. Two are your own Reels with a trending song your intern picked. Seven are affiliate videos, and four of those are the ones you boosted. That last part matters most. Once you pay to run a creator’s video as an ad, it’s plainly your marketing, and a song the creator could use for fun is not cleared for your ad.
You now know exactly where to look. You pause four ads and swap two Reels, which takes an afternoon. Then you decide whether you need the full audit to find the rest.
What the free check doesn’t do
We’d rather be clear about this up front. The free check is a count and a sample, not a full report. It tells you how big the problem is and where it’s coming from. It does not list every post or tell you how to fix each one.
It also only looks at public posts. We don’t log in to your accounts, so we can’t see drafts, ads that never ran publicly, or your ad manager history. And today we check two things: music, and creator usage rights. Stock footage, images and AI likeness are coming soon, but they aren’t part of the check yet.
Finally, this is a risk check, not legal advice. A red post means we think it needs fixing. It doesn’t mean a court has decided anything.
If you want every post and every fix
That’s the full audit. We go through every post in the window, including creator, affiliate and boosted content, and give you a list with a green, yellow or red label and a specific fix for each flag: swap the track, license it, renew the creator’s rights, or take it down. Results come back in 5 business days.
| Plan | Posts | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Free check | Recent public posts | Free: a count and examples |
| Starter audit | Up to 100 | $500, and free if we find nothing to fix |
| Growth audit | Up to 300 | $1,000 |
| Larger accounts | 300+ | Custom quote |
Most people start with the free check, see the number, and then decide. That’s the point of it. Know every post is safe before your boss or a record label asks.

Common questions
Is the free check really free?
Yes. No card, no contract. You see a count of red, yellow and green posts and one example straight away, and a free account shows the rest. The full check, confirmed by a reviewer, is paid, and you decide after you see your numbers.
Do you need my password or ad account access?
No. We only look at public posts, using the handle you type. We never ask for logins.
How long does it take?
The free check takes about a minute. It’s an automatic pre-check of your most recent public posts. The full check, confirmed by an IP-trained reviewer, takes 5 business days.
Which platforms do you check?
TikTok and Instagram, including Reels. You can also send links to creator or affiliate videos and we’ll include them.
What happens if you find red posts?
Nothing happens unless you want it to. We don’t report anything to anyone. You can fix the posts yourself, or book the full audit for a complete list with a fix for each one.
Is a red post a legal finding?
No. It means our reviewers think the post uses music or creator content that isn’t cleared for brand use. It’s a risk flag to help you act, not legal advice.
