Discover Our Award-Winning Rights Management Platform
Our exclusive publishing rights management software helps our clients license more books, easily and efficiently.
At DropCap, we aim to help authors and book publishers get the most out of their front and backlists by expanding their reach, value, and returns.
To achieve this, we have developed a rights management platform that equips our in-house agents with tools to efficiently and effectively license foreign rights for a wider range of titles and languages.

Targeted Marketing for Global Rights Buyers
With our customized algorithm, our rights management platform can identify the titles that are most appealing to foreign rights buyers. We provide personalized recommendations to buyers via their DropCap dashboard and through personal pitches from our agents. By using data on buyer preferences and habits, we can maximize sales for our publishers through targeted marketing.
Our platform has proven success, with an average ROI of 8,700% for our publishers.
Optimize Royalties with Customized Contracts and Automated Management
Effortlessly negotiate and e-sign foreign rights contracts with our platform. All contracts are time-stamped and easily accessible for review at any time. Our flexible contracts can be tailored to your needs, allowing you to customize elements such as the advance amount, royalty percentages (including those based on sales thresholds), and additional subsidiary rights clauses.
Once an agreement is reached, our state-of-the-art rights management platform tracks, manages, and collects all royalties earned through foreign language rights sales.
Get Instant Access to PDFs
A huge bottleneck in rights licensing has always been the time it takes from when a potential buyer requests to review a full PDF of a book to when they actually receive the files. Our publishers upload all book files during initial set-up and as new books are published, providing buyers with instant access to the files. For added security, all files are watermarked and buyers are thoroughly vetted within our network.
We make file and metadata uploads simple and seamless, regardless of whether you have one title or 5,000.

“No other publisher has the same delivery system that you have—your platform is very convenient. I can see all the publishers at once and it is big because you represent so many! It’s easy to see the PDFs, the covers and all the details of the books. Everything is accessible and very easy to use.”
