  • Creators & Educators

    For course creators, educators, and content-led businesses built around original digital material.

    Typical triggers

    A course, video, or written work is reposted, reuploaded, or distributed without permission.

    Examples

    • A paid course appears on an unauthorized download site
    • A video is reuploaded after a prior takedown
    • Photography or artwork is reused without a licence
    • A membership area is being shared outside your platform
  • Software & SaaS

    For SaaS businesses, software publishers, and digital-tool companies.

    Typical triggers

    Software is cracked, redistributed, or presented through a misleading download page.

    Examples

    • A cracked build circulates through a download site
    • A page uses your product name to distribute an unrelated download
    • Your product presentation is copied to look official
    • A known distribution source reappears under a new domain
  • E-commerce Brands

    For Amazon sellers, Shopify brands, and eCommerce businesses selling through online platforms.

    Typical triggers

    A listing, seller, or storefront is misusing your product, brand, or catalogue content.

    Examples

    • A counterfeit listing uses your product photography
    • A seller's activity around your brand needs investigation
    • Your listing content is copied onto a competing listing
    • A fake storefront is capturing customers searching for your brand
  • Publishers & Media

    For publishers, media businesses, and subscription publications with catalogue-scale content.

    Typical triggers

    Published material is copied, leaked, or redistributed at a scale beyond a single piece of content.

    Examples

    • A book circulates as an unauthorized PDF
    • Articles are republished on another site without permission
    • Subscriber-only content leaks outside your paywall
    • A known piracy source resurfaces across your catalogue
  • Agencies & Consultants

    For agencies, consultants, and businesses managing protection work across multiple client or brand accounts.

    Typical triggers

    Several clients need different protection services handled through one organized, consistent process.

    Examples

    • Multiple clients have unrelated protection needs at once
    • A client relationship requires visible, organized case records
    • Ongoing monitoring is needed across several brands
    • A case involves sensitive client information
  • Local Businesses & Professionals

    For local businesses, service providers, professionals, and public-facing individuals whose online reputation affects customer trust.

    Typical triggers

    Reviews, profiles, or search results are affecting how customers or clients see the business.

    Examples

    • Fake or potentially policy-violating reviews affect your business
    • A fake or misleading profile is impersonating you or your business
    • A harmful page ranks prominently for your name
    • A forum or Reddit thread targets you or your business

Some businesses fit more than one context

A course company may be both a Creator and a Software business. An eCommerce founder may need Marketplace and Reputation protection at once. Choose the closest match — the right services follow from what's actually happening, not from a single category.
