A solution designed by experts
Crealo was built by a team of engineers and publishing specialists. Developed in close collaboration with industry practitioners, including publishing houses, specialist accounting firms, legal experts, and distributors. Every feature is designed to meet the specific needs of publishers and all royalty rights holders.
Legacy solutions
In-house systems or Excel spreadsheets
Publishing industry expertise
Built specifically for publishers, Crealo natively handles every format and contractual model in the industry.
These often general-purpose tools no longer keep pace with industry changes and do not always meet the specific needs of publishing.
Generic, incomplete, and manual tools. Heavy processes reliant on manual input and prone to errors.
All-in-one platform
A single platform for royalty reporting, contract management, rights assignments, and social contribution calculations.
Siloed modules with limited integrations.
Scattered tools (Excel, emails, shared files).
Broad publisher partner network
Trusted by 200+ publishers, with best practices shared across the community.
Little to no collaboration between publishers.
No mutualization, with each publisher operating in isolated processes.
Modeling of the most complex contracts
Natively models the most complex contracts: royalty tiers, advances, and provisions. Powered by a proprietary calculation engine, Crealo supports all contract types across the industry.
Limited contract management features with heavy, complex setup.
Manual management with frequent errors.
Configuration & Control
Flexible, scalable configuration with intuitive controls.
Rigid solution with high maintenance costs.
Complex configuration, where every change can break formulas and create duplicates or errors.
Integration ecosystem
An infrastructure designed to connect seamlessly with your business and internal tools: dedicated APIs, distributor connectors, and accounting exports (Sage, Cegid, Oracle, Bexio, Pennylane…).
Few or no integrations, with limited compatibility with market players.
Integrations are not possible without heavy development work.
Analytics & Reporting
Track the performance of your titles and new releases across all formats, channels, and countries.
Limited reporting, not tailored to cultural and creative industries.
Manual analysis, time-consuming data consolidation, and a high risk of errors.
Scalability
Designed to support your growth, without limits. A scalable architecture capable of handling thousands of users, millions of data rows, and complex catalogs, all with no loss of performance.
Performance degrades as data volumes grow.
High risk of saturation and bugs as soon as data volumes become significant.
Security
Full GDPR compliance and ISO 27001–certified security standards.
Fewer guarantees on compliance.
Unsecured files, with high risks of data loss or leaks.
Deployment & Support
Migration fully managed, tailored onboarding, and responsive human support.
Migration sometimes left to the client, with standardized support.
Full autonomy, no support.
Innovation
Always ahead of the curve: modern technologies, continuous updates, and anticipation of industry developments.
Outdated software and limited innovation.
Lack of innovation: the tool is limited to Excel’s native capabilities, or evolves only through internal development.
