How we compare programs

Our sources, selection method and limits.

What qualifies for a listing

A program needs a current public page describing a route for rights holders to offer existing data. We distinguish program roles, formats, seller requirements, geography, payment and exclusivity. We check each claim against provider pages and preserve missing terms as unknown.

How the shortlist works

The tool matches a selected data type to formats named by the program. A rights answer controls whether it shows a contact-oriented shortlist. Company size flags the published micro1 main-track threshold. Other staff targets remain preferences. Lifecycle and new-capture answers expose gaps in documented coverage. It does not score expected payouts, infer acceptance from geography or rank by commission. Results appear alphabetically.

Scope and corrections

The directory covers 14 researched organizations. It is a selected cohort, not the whole market. Publication is not endorsement. Sources and review dates appear on profiles; changed terms require a new review. Report a correction.
