Solution Overview

Rights tracking across territories, formats, and sub-licensing deals is labor-intensive and error-prone. Cray automates rights ingestion, royalty calculations per contract terms, author statement generation, and dispute resolution workflows.

The Manual Process Problem

Rights teams manually update spreadsheets with sales data, compute royalties per contract clauses, generate author statements in Word, and email them individually.

Cray's Automation Approach

Structured rights database ingests contract terms via document extraction. Sales data pipelines feed automated royalty calculations. Statements are generated and emailed via templated workflows. Exceptions are flagged for human review.
