Every case is different. The scale of infringement, the platforms involved, and the level of investigation required can vary significantly, so pricing is built around the work itself rather than fixed packages.
Most clients fall into one of three models:
For specific issues that need resolving.
This might be a single investigation, a cluster of infringing links, impersonation cases, or a targeted takedown campaign across one or more platforms. The scope is agreed upfront, along with a clear objective and outcome.
This works best if you already know there’s a problem and need it handled properly.
For continued monitoring, enforcement, and advice.
Content theft is rarely a one-off issue. Once something is being shared or resold, it tends to persist, reappear, or spread across different platforms. A retainer allows for ongoing identification, takedowns, and a clearer understanding of where you’re losing revenue and how it’s happening.
This is typically structured as a monthly agreement, with work carried out consistently rather than reactively.
For creators who want their content protected without having to think about it.
You may already have rights management tools or content protection infrastructure in place (e.g. YouTube's Content ID or Facebook's Rights Manager), but knowing how to use them effectively is a different matter. Stop Content Theft can step in and run your entire content protection operation: monitoring platforms for infringements, actioning takedowns, managing your rights management accounts, and reporting back to you on a regular basis — weekly or monthly, depending on your needs.
This is particularly useful for creators and brands who are losing revenue to content theft but don't have the time, knowledge, or resources to deal with it themselves.
For businesses that need regular, hands-on input.
In some cases, it makes more sense to work as an extension of your team rather than as an external service. This can involve joining on a weekly or monthly basis, contributing to internal processes, handling enforcement directly, and advising on longer-term content protection strategy.
This is particularly useful for growing businesses where content is a core part of revenue but there isn’t a dedicated internal role yet.
