What is Fluzo?

Fluzo is a system to make copyright clearance
efficient and to improve its accuracy
in digital content distribution business.

Construction of
an integrated database
regarding the rights information of musical works

CDC integrates the rights information administered by each CMO in the Fluzo system and links the CMOs information with the CDC-IDs and the respective DSPs’ IDs. Thus the management of rights information in the digital music content distribution is unified and the rights management information of the participating CMOs in the Fluzo system can be searched across CMOs.

Fingerprint search

Fluzo employs the fingerprint technology and realizes the highly accurate search result. The Fluzo system uses the fingerprints (for identification of the sound fingerprint) extracted from the sound recording data which are the digital contents themselves. While the conventional text search is unable to identify the data even if one character of a title or artist is incorrect, the search using the fingerprints extracted from the sound recordings brings a remarkably high ratio of identification.

Batch processing of the usage reports data

CDC identifies the respective CMOs’ work IDs processing the usage records data received from DSPs, sorts their respective repertoire data, transforms the usage data forms and conducts batch processing to produce the usage records data to deliver to CMOs. The Fluzo system is equipped with the function to directly transmit the usage records data to CMOs.

*Please note that licensing for the copyright use and invoicing the royalty amount are directly settled between DSPs and CMOs.
