Mix-IP holds the agency end-to-end — reconciliations, retainer renewals, and creator payouts included. One workspace for the account director, the creative team, the clients, and the creators they commission. Built for agencies that run a dozen simultaneous worlds and need them all addressable from one view.
Bundled on every plan: Vault 88 for per-client isolation · Pro Transfer App desktop transfer for masters across every client engagement · Wise + Stripe rails for creator settlements in 60+ currencies.
Briefs in Notion, per client. Time-tracking in Harvest. Creator commissions in spreadsheets. Retainer fees in QuickBooks. Where's the original creator invoice? in a Slack thread the account director can't find. Mark-ups reconciled in a finance model nobody touches between Tuesday and quarter-close.
The whole portfolio lives on one record, so the account director sees every engagement from one view and the agency's margin reports on Monday morning, not the following Friday.
One engagement, one record, six steps. Your agency wins a multinational athletic-apparel brand's campaign and runs it end to end — a hero TV commercial, a social push with influencers, a call for user-generated content — commissioning the production house, signing the talent, coordinating post, and billing the client while every creator gets paid. It's one of a dozen engagements live in your workspace right now. Each step below cross-links to the feature page that does the work.
The client's brief lands, and your agency runs it as an internal contest — your creative teams each pitch their concept in Mix-IP, every idea protected and credited to the team that made it. The account and creative leads review side by side; the strongest concept takes the lead and goes to the client. When the client greenlights it, the engagement is already staffed and on the record.
You open a production Call to your roster of houses; they quote against the brief, and you commission the winner into the engagement. The commission contract auto-fills and countersigns in-platform, and the mark-up you carry is captured on the record from the start.
You sign a headline athlete and a musician through the Talent Library — their reps and agencies are in the ecosystem, so every contract, likeness window, and usage right lands on the record as it's agreed. For the supporting cast, you run a live casting session in Live Studio — auditions reviewed and selected in real time, the picks credentialed on the spot.
The production house shoots, and everything lands in the engagement workspace via Pro Transfer App — masters, cuts, behind-the-scenes, UGC — hash-verified, resumable, per-recipient encrypted. And every appearance is cleared before the shoot wraps: talent, extras, and background each have a signed release on the record before the footage locks.
Post runs across your studio, the client, and the production house at once, and Task Manager keeps every cut, comment, revision, and approval on one board. Before anything ships, the footage is cross-verified against the releases — face recognition matches every appearance to a signed release and flags anyone unreleased. When the masters are baked, you handle the media distribution yourself — the right cut goes to each partner: broadcasters, out-of-home vendors, the paid-social platforms, retail, each with its own license boundary and flight dates, gated previews through Vault 88 first. Every placement is tracked against the record, so a spot never runs past its window.
The campaign runs, and it takes a Lion at Cannes. The credit comes straight off the record — the creative team that pitched it, the production house, the director, the talent, every contributor by name — so no one argues over whose trophy it is. The same record settles the money: your fee and mark-up, the pass-through to production and creators, the client's partner foundation for the cause, every payout with a receipt and the audit trail and tax forms baked in.
Mix-IP consolidates the multi-client coordination layer of the agency — the briefs across clients, the creator commissions, the pass-through margin, the retainer renewals, the work-product retention. We don't replace the tools your designers and editors actually love. Adobe Creative Cloud stays. Your NLE and motion stack stays. Your accounting tool stays. Your client's procurement workflow stays. We just stop the agency from leaking out the seams between them.
Clients, production houses, talent and creators, media partners, finance, and the causes clients back. Mix-IP puts them all on one record and makes the hard part simple: contracts, rights, splits, mark-ups, and usage tracked in the product, AI-assisted — no separate legal or admin team. Everyone the agency works with is on the record, and the record keeps them all straight.
Clients & brand marketers
Each client sees only their engagement — briefs in, approvals live, a procurement audit that answers itself.
Production partners
Houses commissioned with the mark-up captured on the record — crew, rates, and releases already on their side.
Talent, influencers & creators
Signed through the Talent Library with reps in the ecosystem — usage windows and splits on the record, paid on every event.
Media partners
Broadcasters, out-of-home, platforms, and retail trafficked from one desk — each with the right cut, license, and flight dates, usage tracked.
Legal, finance & procurement
Pass-through, mark-up, receipts, and tax forms on one record — the margin reports itself and the audit is already assembled.
Causes & foundations
When a client backs a cause, its foundation joins the split as a payee — funded automatically, credited on the record.
Three agencies that ran their multi-client portfolios end-to-end through Mix-IP. Concurrent client counts, work-product retention horizons, and creator-settlement currencies from real engagement workflows.
Mainline Agency — Q3 client portfolio
All four engagements ran in parallel without a Friday-afternoon reconciliation. Agency margin reported on Monday morning, not the following Friday.
Counterpane Agency — athletic-brand retainer
When the client's brand director rotated and their replacement reopened the work-product retention clause, the agency surfaced the original signed boundaries inside 4 hours. Case-study rights upheld without a legal escalation.
Lattice Creative — global commissions
Mexico City sound designer paid in pesos. São Paulo editor paid in reais. Berlin colorist paid in euros. All three settled in the same Friday batch — no separate rail logins, no FX-reconciliation Tuesday.
All three agencies are illustrative composites pending Jonathan-redlined customer stories and a legal pass on the fictional names.
Agencies running multi-client portfolios — with creator commissions, work-product retention, mark-up pass-through, and per-client Vault shares — need more than a shared drive and a CFO spreadsheet. Mix-IP ships the controls client procurement, legal, and IT actually verify before they sign a master services agreement — and the controls the agency itself relies on to keep its own IP separate from each client's.
Enterprise-grade security Live
Encryption in transit and at rest, and access controls, in place today. Independent security certification is underway — and we work directly with enterprise and procurement teams on security review.
Encrypted end to end Live
Agency work-product (strategy docs, creative process, case-study rights, retainer-protected deliverables) is encrypted in transit and at rest, and access-controlled per client engagement. Client divorce doesn't take agency IP — the registered record proves your team authored it, whoever the client works with next. Customer-managed keys — talk to us.
DPA-ready Live
GDPR-compliant Data Processing Addendum signed at workspace creation. Standard Contractual Clauses for cross-border transfers (the EU creator commissioned by the AMER agency for the APAC client). EU data residency on request.
Anchored provenance Live
Every IPR registration carries a qualified timestamp (RFC 3161 / eIDAS) and anchors its SHA-256 hash to a public chain. Provenance proves work-product authorship through the agency, not just through the client — useful when a competing agency claims similar creative, the chain proves your team got there first.
Security controls are in place today; independent certification is underway. We support enterprise and procurement security reviews directly — talk to our team.
Agencies
Hold every client. Hold every creator. Hold the agency — and the agency margin — across all of them.
