Creator Protection & Authorship

Protecting the Work of Our Top 10 Creators

As an additional benefit of being named a Global Student Creator Challenge Top 10 Finalist, each finalist will receive complimentary SongProof protection for their submitted work.

Through SongProof, each Top 10 entry will receive a verifiable, blockchain-timestamped record documenting the work’s creation and authorship. This gives our student creators an added layer of protection as they share their music with a global audience.

Top 10 Finalist Benefit

Complimentary SongProof certification for your Challenge submission and 4 additional songs — because recognizing great creativity also means helping creators protect what they create.

About SongProof

SongProof is the easiest way for songwriters to protect their music. Using blockchain technology, it creates a permanent, timestamped record of your song — like a birth certificate for your music — proving when you created it. And if your song was a collaboration, SongProof lets you record a split sheet too — capturing everyone who contributed and their share — all secured on the blockchain. It's the simple first step every creator should take before releasing their work into the world. We're proud to give each ISME finalist complimentary access to protect their winning song.
