Investor Roadmap April 2026
CLIP"
Turning 80-page legal contracts into live revenue intelligence.
One platform. Two modules. A single intelligence loop that reads every contract, grounds it against your catalog, and surfaces exactly which titles you can license today, next quarter, and twelve months out.
Module 1 Contract Intelligence
Module 2 Metadata Intelligence
CLIP Core" Insights" Forecast"
The Opportunity
Revenue is hiding inside contracts no one can read fast enough.
Every licensing deal locks up eligibility rules, window formulas and territory rights inside dense legal paragraphs. Today those rules are re-read by hand slowly, inconsistently, at great cost. CLIP" makes them executable.
Today Without CLIP"
Manual 23 weeks Error-prone
- Planners manually read 80100 page legal agreements
- Eligibility rules buried in nested clause sub-sections
- Date formulas calculated by hand in spreadsheets
- Amendment layers cause silent version drift
- No visibility into future-eligible titles
- Compliance risk from overlooked conditions
(
Tomorrow With CLIP"
AI + Human Minutes Auditable
- OCR + LLM extracts every rule in minutes
- Module 2 anchors extraction to real catalog attributes
- Earlier Of / No Later Than date logic fully automated
- Amendment layers version-controlled automatically
- 12-month pipeline of future-eligible titles
- Full audit trail every rule decision explainable
The Moat
What makes CLIP" impossible to replicate with a single LLM
Why CLIP" Wins
Two agentic engines. One intelligence loop.
CLIP" is not one model wired to a PDF. It is two purpose-built agentic-RAG engines working in a closed loop: Engine 1 reads the contract, Engine 2 reads the catalog and tells you how to create revenue, not just discover it.
Contract rules are fixed. Your catalog is growing. CLIP turns that gap into a forward-looking, multi-year revenue playbook title by title, term year by term year.

Bird's-Eye Flow
Two Media Companies. One Platform. One Licensed Title.
The zoomed-out view. A regional contract flows from the Licensor through the Licensee's negotiation table, into CLIP"'s two agentic engines, and out the other side as bookable revenue plus a ranked list of near-miss titles Engine 2 says you can still turn into revenue. Four swim lanes; seven moments; zero manual rule interpretation.
Reading the swim lane:
the Licensor and Licensee negotiate and execute the contract in the top two lanes. That executed contract lands in CLIP" (Lane 3), where Engine 1 extracts four rule segments and Engine 2 scores them across the live catalog every term year. UNCHARTED matches all four gates the glowing moment in T6 and drops into the Outcome lane as $2.75M of bookable revenue, alongside 846 other matched titles. The amber card in Lane 1 is Engine 2's unique play: 1,089 near-miss titles with ranked levers boost theatrical, attach a tier-A cast member, shift a release date to tip them into future revenue.

All four gates clear. Window auto-calculated, fee auto-priced, cap slot reserved. The title lands in the Eligible bucket and shows up on the sales dashboard the same day the contract is signed. Zero manual interpretation.
UNCHARTED surfaces from a 12,000-title catalog scan.
The rule engine ran against every title in the Sony catalog in ~58 seconds. 847 titles passed the Qualifier; 234 are awaiting their window to open; 412 are in the 12-month forecast. UNCHARTED is one of the immediately-eligible 847.

Engine 2 Insights Layer
The dashboard a planner opens every morning.
Engine 2 renders the rule title term-year cube as a continuously-updated visual timeline, explains per-title eligibility with the exact reason and term year, integrates with Salesforce, SAP, Tableau and your rights-management system to answer the one question that actually matters: "is this title free to sell right now, this quarter, next year?"

Rights-Availability Check
Integrates with Rightsline, FilmTrack, SAP-RMS, custom systems. Detects "already sold" conflicts before surfacing a title as eligible. Turns rules-eligible into actually-available-to-sell.
Salesforce SAP Tableau
Native connectors: eligible titles auto-create Salesforce Opportunities, rate-card values post to SAP AR, Tableau/Power BI/Looker query the rule catalog year cube live. Zero net-new tools for planners.

Engine 2 doesn't just compute eligibility it shows it, explains it, unlocks it, verifies it can be sold, and delivers it into the systems your sales and finance teams already live in.
That's the difference between a reporting tool and a sales system and the reason Engine 2 is the insights engine, not just a scoring engine.
