About Kuaishou
Kuaishou is one of the two dominant short-video platforms in mainland China, alongside Douyin. Music is central to how its content works -- creators build videos around tracks, and a sound that catches can be used millions of times in a matter of days. Its user base reaches deep into second- and third-tier cities and rural China, audiences that other platforms serve less thoroughly.
For a rights holder outside China, it represents scale that is difficult to access any other way, and a form of use -- short-video soundtracking -- that generates its own licensing revenue separate from streaming.
Audicient delivers your catalogue to Kuaishou with the China-specific rights declarations and Simplified Chinese metadata the platform requires, so your music is available for creator use and the resulting activity is reported.
