What is ShowRights?

ShowRights is an international, web-based marketplace where Rights Owners & Broadcasters can communicate and license content from each other in an efficient, cost-effective and secure environment. ShowRights puts broadcasters in direct contact with rights-owners and distributors. Distributors and rights owners can upload entire program catalogs to the site and create and associate unique licenses with their programs. Broadcasters can browse large libraries of television programs and films, save their findings for later, negotiate for broadcast rights and efficiently track all of their transactions through the portal.

Who is using ShowRights?

People who want a better, faster, more secure way of licensing more film & television content! ShowRights puts rights owners in touch with the broadcasters seeking to license content, and facilitates contract negotiation between both parties, saving time and money.

Why should I use ShowRights?

ShowRights was formed to meet industry needs for an online marketplace where Rights Owners and Broadcasters can meet, negotiate and license content from each other in a secure, low-cost environment. Regardless of library size or geographical location, catalogs can be licensed and delivered using proprietary ShowRights technology.

The Need: Increased demand for content at various cost levels in multiple languages and formats to fill required broadcast time, for both competitive and regulatory reasons.

The Solution: ShowRights online community and catalog management tools enable rights owners to bundle and display film, television and media by variables such as format, language and availability, making it easy for broadcasters to find and license program packages based on an array of broadcast preferences.

The Need: Availability of lower cost film, television and other programming packages (localized, other)

The Solution: ShowRights has created a community that connects rights owners who manage catalogs of all sizes and values with broadcasters around the globe to facilitate efficient licensing of transactions, regardless of size. Rights owners benefit by posting - at reasonable rates -catalogs that have completed the initial life cycle of distribution for license. Broadcasters benefit by gaining access to lower cost catalogs. Rights owners generate new revenue/profits while exhibitors and broadcasters increase operating profits.

The Need: Lower selling and transaction costs for rights owners and exhibitors/broadcasters

The Solution: ShowRights automates the set-up and licensing process for rights owners, eliminating high costs that typically accompany the traditional selling process. Rights owners can now license their catalogs through an automated process and exhibitors/broadcasters can access catalogs online and eliminate high acquisition costs, while tracking and managing their business online.
