Film Distribution Marketplace Software
Launch your own film distribution and licensing marketplace.
This is a turnkey film distribution marketplace. Filmmakers submit titles through a guided wizard, your team reviews them for quality and rights, approved buyers browse the catalog and make licensing offers, contracts are generated automatically, revenue is reported and filmmakers are paid, all from one platform with accounting built in. FilmMarketHub, a live distribution company, runs on this platform so you can see it working.
Built for: Film distributors, sales agents, aggregators, film festivals and studios who want to run their own licensing marketplace
✔ Proven in production: FilmMarketHub runs on this software.
Running a distribution business on email, spreadsheets and PDFs does not scale.
- Submissions, screeners and paperwork arrive by email and get lost.
- Buyers email offers that you have to track, negotiate and turn into contracts by hand.
- Rights conflicts across territories and windows are easy to miss.
- Filmmakers keep asking where their statement and payout are.
This software fixes that.
- 3 portals
- filmmaker, buyer and admin, each with its own login
- 7 steps
- guided title submission wizard
- Auto
- contract PDFs and conflict detection
- Live demo
- see a working distribution company run on it
