Cleared™: Making Sure Your Music is Legally Safe for Sync
Cleared™ (clearedmusic.io) is the system that checks your music for legal issues before it gets pitched to music libraries. That Pitch then matches your track with the right libraries based on its legal status and the assets you’ve provided. Some libraries require more details than others, so the more you upload, the better your chances of getting placed.
How It Works
- Cleared™ Checks Your Track – It looks for samples, loops, or anything that might cause copyright issues.
- Library Matching – Based on your track’s legal status and the assets you’ve uploaded, That Pitch determines which libraries your song qualifies for.
- Submission Scheduling – Your track is sent to libraries based on their specific guidelines and schedules.
Cleared™ Status Levels
🟢 Green - Cleared for All Libraries
Your track is legally cleared and being pitched to all libraries it qualifies for.
Some libraries are fine with just a few details, but others require everything to accept your track. To be eligible for all libraries, make sure you’ve uploaded:
- Writer Profile (fully completed)
- Artist Profile (fully completed)
- Song Details
- Stems
- Lyrics
- Artwork
The more assets you provide, the more libraries your track can be pitched to.
🟠Peach - Limited to Select Libraries
Your track is being pitched to select libraries.
Some libraries might accept it, while others need more review. If your track clears, we’ll pitch it everywhere.
âš« Black - Processing
Your track is still being checked.
This usually takes just a few minutes. Once it’s done, we’ll start pitching it.
How to Get the Best Results
- Green Cleared™ + Full Assets = Best Chance of Library Acceptance.
- While some libraries accept tracks with minimal details, many require everything to approve them. To maximize your opportunities, fill out every section and upload all assets.
- If your track is Peach (Limited), it might have samples or other legal concerns that limit where it can go. Cleared™'s team manually reviews each track. If there truly isn't an issue, it will automatically update to Green (Cleared).
Why This Matters
- Libraries Trust Cleared™ – It ensures your track is legally safe, making it easier for libraries to accept it.
- More Assets = More Libraries – The more details you provide, the more libraries your track qualifies for.
- No Extra Cost – Cleared™ is included in your membership, so you don’t have to worry about expensive legal fees.
With Cleared™, you don’t have to stress about legal issues—just focus on making great music and giving your track the best chance to land in top libraries!
