Asset classes
Intellectual property
7 classes in this group. Each resolves from the group profile plus its own overrides, so the parts that genuinely differ are the only parts stated twice.
What the engine holds for each class
These are the actual template values the product uses when an issuer structures one of these assets — what it is, whether it pays, whether it ends, and what must be held or attested.
| Class | What it is | Fungibility | Income | Maturity | Custody & attestation |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Music royalty | Rights to recurring music royalty income. | fungible | Periodic income | Open-ended | independent valuation |
| Film royalty | Participation in film or television revenue. | fungible | Periodic income | Open-ended | independent valuation |
| Patent right | Patents and the licensing income they generate. | fungible | Periodic income | Open-ended | independent valuation |
| Licensing revenue | Contracted licence fees. | fungible | Periodic income | Open-ended | independent valuation |
| Copyright interest | Copyright and the works it protects. | fungible | Periodic income | Open-ended | independent valuation |
| Brand / IP rights | Trademarks and brand licensing. | fungible | Periodic income | Open-ended | independent valuation |
| Software licensing rights | Rights to software licence revenue. | fungible | Periodic income | Open-ended | independent valuation |
What has to be true before issuing
Readiness is derived from what has actually been recorded against the asset, not from a checklist somebody ticks. These are the requirements this group carries.
- Documented legal ownership, and a vehicle able to issue the claim being offered.
- Legal structures commonly used for this group: spv, revenue sharing contract, beneficial interest, llc shares. Presented as options for counsel to choose between, never applied automatically.
- An independent valuation with a stated methodology and a review cadence, because there is no continuous market price for this group.
- Custody arrangements appropriate to the claim being issued.
- Evidence of the underlying claim, retained in the data room.
- A servicing plan naming who calculates income, who pays it, and from which account.
- A compliance policy in force — an offering cannot open without one, because every subscription would otherwise be refused.
Structure a intellectual property asset
Launch Studio walks the asset from definition through structure, parties, data room and token configuration, and will not let it reach an offering without what this class requires.
