Creative Intell’s story started with a simple conversation between two friends; David Fritz, one of the country’s top music attorneys, and Steven Ship, an artist manager and former label CEO. Over a leisurely lunch at their favorite Italian restaurant in Midtown, they soon found themselves discussing a familiar problem - the lack of accessible, trustworthy information about the music industry and its contracts.
David was lamenting about how much time he spent educating his clients about the music business. Steve understood immediately. After all, he’d learned the industry himself this way, paying a small fortune in legal fees chasing information that should have been readily available to him.
Why was this knowledge so hard to come by? So secretive, so guarded? After all, it’s been an industry-wide problem for decades, the reason why so many artists sign bad contracts they don’t understand.
There had to be a better way.
This casual conversation between friends over pasta ignited the idea that would become Creative Intell: a comprehensive music business education platform supported by a community of experts.
Today, Creative Intell offers in-depth, interactive courses on music business fundamentals and industry agreements. For those who prefer to learn visually, we've produced a unique animated series, "The Intells," that makes learning the business both fun and engaging. Our contract template library incorporates the highest quality legal language used by leading entertainment attorneys, including our own legal team. We pride ourselves on being up to date with language changes and industry trends. We take a community-based approach that supports our members to learn at their own pace while networking with like-minded artists, producers, managers, executives, and lawyers.
The story of Creative Intell is just beginning, it’s an ongoing adventure. With new courses and features added every month and so much more, come join us at the Creative Intell community.
We want to make sure you never sign a bad music contract again... or ever!

"Creative Intell is an online resource offering in-depth guidance about the true inner workings of the music industry."
Knowledge is power, but if the knowledge is scattered, how can the people advance?
Creative Intell has a solution for this problem as it pertains to the music & entertainment industry. By providing templates for contracts and offering courses that teach the basics every artist should know about the industry, Creative Intell is in a prime position to educate musicians on what to look for when making deals in this business.
Musicians have rights, and it is imperative that they know what they are. I absolutely appreciate everything Creative Intell has done to get this information easily into artists' hands!
I used to work with music producers without contracts, leading to disagreements about who owned what. After taking Creative intell's courses on Work-for-Hire and Producer Agreements, I realized how crucial these agreements are. Now, I use their templates and things are way smoother – no more confusion and my rights are protected.
Creative Intell is a platform that really acts as a powerful tool for artists, musicians and anyone really working within the music industry to both assist in navigating its complex aspects in terms of business structure and in providing document creation and resources that are key to succeeding in the business of music.
Impressive and essential content.
Thanks for the deeper infos 👌🏼💯🙏🏼
Creative Intel is an easy way to get to understand the concepts of the business of music. It does not pander, instead it uses storytelling to make sure that you understand where you fit in. This is useful to both new artists and established artists. Aspirational business people can get a leg up here too. Established business people would do well to review the courses and remind them about some basics that are easy to forget while making sure they are up to date. Lawyers take courses every year. All of us should too.
I have personally benefited from the insightful articles, video tutorials, and case studies available on the platform. The expertise and dedication of the legal experts behind creative intell are evident in the quality of content they deliver. Navigating the legalities of the music industry can be daunting, but this website simplifies the process, empowering individuals to make informed decisions and protect their creative endeavors.
Great concept and I like the interface!!
So this is like anime for rappers is a love it❤️
I work with artists in the industry who usually aren't fully informed about how contracts and the business side of things work. They know it's important to know but it can be difficult to find valid information and resources to learn from.
Creative Intell has created an educational platform educating with animation, real-life examples, and legitimate tools within their Academy. As a subscriber and an artist myself, I am able to equip myself with the knowledge needed to help the artists, DJs, and producers I work with, especially in a time when so many prefer to be independent from labels.
Contracts, agreements, and publishing can be overwhelming to understand but I am happy that this platform was created in a way to be understood.
I highly recommend Creative Intell to anyone in the music industry -- from artists to managers or anyone simply interested in learning how the industry works.
