About us

An independent rights management entity. The distinction is not paperwork.

Unison Rights OGI, S.L. administers rights under agreed terms rather than as a collective mandate. That is what makes it possible to look at a catalogue on its own merits — and it is why the answer to “can you handle this?” is a conversation rather than a policy.

What kind of company this is

Three things that are true about us and not about most of the alternatives.

Not values. Values are free to claim. These are structural facts, and each one has a consequence you can check against how you are actually treated.

An entity, not a society

A collective management organisation operates a mandate: the same terms for everybody, because that is what a collective is. An independent entity administers rights under terms that are agreed. That is why applications here are looked at case by case, and why “it depends on the catalogue” is an honest answer rather than an evasion.

A named person, not a queue

Technology powers Unison, but people define Unison. Every client is assigned a client manager who knows them and their catalogue — not a support address that routes to whoever is free. It is the differentiator none of the competitors claim, and the one clients mention first.

Experience from the other side of the table

The operations team came from publishers, from collecting societies and from legal representation. That matters when a claim is contested or a registration is wrong, because the people resolving it have sat in the seat that is disagreeing with you.

The team

Technology powers Unison, but people define Unison.

The platform does the work no person could: matching millions of lines of usage against a catalogue, week after week. What it cannot do is tell you which of two plausible claims is the real one, or explain a distribution to someone who has every right to be sceptical of it.

So every client is assigned a client manager who knows them and their catalogue intimately, and who is the same person next quarter. Rights management professionals with real industry expertise, and the operations side staffed by people with decades from publishers, collecting societies and legal representation.

That combination is the whole design. Automate what is mechanical, and put a person in front of everything that requires judgement — which in this industry is more than anybody selling software wants to admit.

“From the very beginning, working with Unison has been a huge benefit for me and my team. They were really hands-on and helpful, taking the time to explain everything and helping me get the most out of my songs and my music.”
