The real cost

What a copyright claim actually does to your channel

A claim isn't just an inconvenience. Here's what a rights holder can do to your video the moment Content ID detects their track.

Revenue goes to the rights holder

Ad revenue from your video is redirected to the rights holder instead of you. Your video keeps running - your earnings don't reach you.

Video blocked in key regions

Depending on the rights holder's choice, your video may be blocked in certain countries or removed from YouTube search results entirely.

Upload anxiety on every video

Once you've had a claim, every upload comes with uncertainty. That mental overhead compounds - and it's entirely preventable.

How it works

One link. Permanent protection.

Thematic's license link is how the protection works. Here's the full picture - including what happens after you add it.

Step 1

Browse the library

Search by mood, genre, or creator style. Every track comes from a real independent artist. No AI audio in the catalog.

Step 3

Your whole channel is protected

One link per song covers every video on your channel - permanently. No renewals, no disputes, no Content ID claims.

Step 4

Your video gets promoted

Every video published with a Thematic track is featured across Thematic's platform, driving new viewers to your content.

Why Thematic

Built by a creator who got struck

Michelle Phan grew one of YouTube's earliest channels to 9M+ subscribers. Then a copyright strike hit. She didn't build a workaround - she built a platform so creators would never need one.

Real artists, no AI music

Every track is from an independent artist who submitted because they want creators to discover them. No AI-generated audio in the catalog.

A library that stays current

New songs added weekly, older tracks cycle out. The catalog stays relevant to what creators are making - not an archive that grows stale.

Community-voted catalog

Thematic creators vote on which songs get added. The library reflects what's resonating with the community right now.

Common questions

Everything you need to know

Thematic has licensing agreements with the artists in its catalog. When you add the license link to your video description, your use of that track is registered as authorized. YouTube's Content ID system recognizes licensed uses and does not issue claims against them.
The license link is per song, per channel - not per video. Once you have the link for a specific song, every video on your channel that uses that track is covered by the same license. You do not need to generate a new link for each upload.
Thematic covers YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, Twitter/X, Twitch, Pinterest, LinkedIn, and podcasts. One license link covers your use across all of these platforms.
Yes. Thematic's free tier has no subscription, no download caps, and no expiry date. The license link in your video description is required on all plans - free and paid. It activates your license and gets your video featured on the Thematic platform. Paid plans unlock premium tracks and additional features.
Your existing videos stay protected on all platforms after cancellation. Cancelling a paid plan means premium songs are no longer available for new videos - it does not affect videos you have already published.
