Using the power of AI to help musicians make better deals
"I have worked in the music industry for over 25 years and during that time, I have come across numerous instances of people signing bad deals because of an inaccurate understanding of the contract they've been asked to sign. These bad contracts can have lasting negative consequences. Understandably, artists and creators are forced at times to forsake obtaining legal representation because they simply don't have the money, but the long-term consequences of not seeking legal representation can be even more costly. I am glad that Redline will fill a hole in the market and offer solid legal representation at a modest price to all"
The promise of Redline for legal professionals is to streamline routine document reviews, save time, and thereby allow spending valuable resources on the most complex interests of the Client.
Redline has the potential to disrupt the way contracts are negotiated. Information and negotiation parity will lead to better deals and more fruitful relationships between artists and music industry professionals.

Redline is an AI-based contract review platform that aims to make artists career development easier by seeking out unfavourable terms from music industry contracts.
Redline was made with artists interest in mind. Regardless of genre, region or the record company you are dealing with, Redline aims to make sure you don’t sign away anything that you shouldn’t and ensures you get a deal that is at least as good as industry standard.
Although artists are our main concern, Redline is also useful for managers to take care of their clients legal matters and for music lawyers by saving time as repetitive terms are reviewed automatically.
After you sign up, simply upload your contract, wait for the AI to do its job (up to 15 minutes) and review all the unfavourable terms that the AI has highlighted for you in the text and make use of the suggestions it has for turning those terms into something more favourable to you.
As the contents of agreements are generally confidential between the contract parties and their legal advisers, we respect this confidentiality by not sharing any of the data or contracts that you upload to our platform with any external parties. The only time we will be using any data from your contracts is when we train our AI to make it smarter and serve you better in the future!
As lawyers’ hourly rates are quite high and contract reviews needing multiple hours, legal costs can be overwhelming for most of us. By automating this process with AI, Redline is able to offer a quality contract review and notify you of industry standards at a much lower cost.
As reviewing and annotating a contract can take a person multiple hours, we aim to reduce this time by letting the computer do the reading and the thinking for us as they are much faster at doing that than humans.
We are currently supporting master license agreement or agreements that regulate the relationship between an artist and a record company.
As our know-how and user interest grows, we will be adding support for further contracts in the future, such as management agreements, publishing contracts etc.
In case you really need help with a contract that is not currently supported, please do let us know so we will know to prioritise the support for that!
Redline currently supports contracts that are written in English.
In case you need help with contracts in any other language, please do let us know and we will take this into account as we offer more language support in the future!
As the music industry reaches across the global, there are many overlaps in contract content and structure across the world. Due to international conventions and cross-border standardisation in music agreements, we can confidently review your contract regardless of your country or the noted jurisdiction in your contract.
