Start your free checkWhy searching by hand falls short
Brand posts, ads and influencer campaigns run on accounts you will never follow. Searching by hand finds a few. A tracker finds the rest.
How it works
- You share your catalogue. Tracks, credits, who holds which rights. The free check starts with your artist name.
- The tracker scans. Brand accounts, ads and influencer posts on TikTok, Instagram and YouTube.
- We check every match. Is it a brand? Is it commercial? Is there a license? Music people make that call.
- We build the case. The post, the account, the reach, the comments, the dates. Evidence that holds up, well beyond a screenshot.
- We recover it. Through our network of licensing and legal specialists. You approve every case.
What you get for each find
- The post or ad, with the account behind it
- The date and the reach
- Whether a license exists
- What the use was worth
Questions
How can I find out if a brand is using my music?
Searching the platforms by hand finds a few uses. TrackShield’s tracker scans TikTok, Instagram and YouTube for you, and people check every match.
Doesn’t Content ID do this?
Content ID covers YouTube monetisation. Brand use across social platforms needs its own tracking and its own license.
Do you find ads and influencer posts, or only brand accounts?
Both. The tracker looks at brand accounts, paid ads and influencer posts.
What if the check finds nothing?
We keep watching. Brands post new content every day, and we tell you the moment your music shows up.
