Derivation Chain

Step 1 Global hits from K-OTT content
Step 2 Expansion of OTT content IP licensing market
Step 3 IP valuation and licensing opportunity matching tool

Problem

As Netflix K-dramas like 'Lady Dua' (starring Shin Hye-sun) become global hits, demand for secondary licensing (merchandise, games, performances) of original web novel and webtoon IP is surging. However, small IP holders (web novel platforms, independent authors) lack the capability to identify which secondary markets their IP has value in or whom to approach. Outsourcing an IP valuation Report costs $2,250–$7,500 per engagement.

Solution

(1) Automatically scores each IP's secondary market potential based on OTT viewership data, social media buzz, and search trends, (2) matches licensing opportunities by category (merchandise, games, performances, overseas rights), (3) provides accessible buyer lists and proposal templates.

Target: Small content companies or independent author agencies holding web novel/webtoon IP (1–10 employees, $750K–$7.5M annual revenue)
Revenue Model: SaaS Monthly Subscription $74.25/account/month (includes 10 IP analyses), additional IP $3.75/month each. 2% success fee on licensing deal value upon completion
Ecosystem Role: Consumer
MVP Estimate: 2_weeks
