Category Standard

FilmTrack is a well-established, market-leading rights management platform founded in 1996 and acquired by City National Bank in 2019 (and subsequently Rightsline in 2024). While the submission text itself was of extremely low quality—containing false claims like 'audience reach: everyone' and 'most people have used my product'—external verification confirms the entity's significant scale, with ~60-100 employees, 200+ enterprise clients (including major studios like A+E and CBS), and estimated revenues well into the millions. The project scores highly on utility and verifiable traction, though the score is dampened by the lack of specific data in the submission and the maturity of the technology.
