The free route

DMCAforce files TAKE IT DOWN Act notices for its clients (the sending side). Compliance Desk is the other side: the free Takedown Desk gives a platform the intake form, ticket numbers, 48-hour clock, verification passes and status pages the Act requires; the free request builder drafts the notice for a person who sends it themselves; and the census shows which of 254 platforms publish a removal path at all.

Takedown Desk (TAKE IT DOWN Act and DMCA): Intake with relationship, minor flag, good-faith statement and typed signature; 48-hour clock; two automated verification passes of the reported locations.
Free request builders: For the person sending the request: TAKE IT DOWN Act removal, DMCA notice, privacy request and do-not-call request drafted in two minutes, sent by you, with the platform's deadline tracked.
TAKE IT DOWN Act census (254 platforms): Which platforms publish a notice-and-removal path, and what it says; dataset CC BY 4.0.
195 DMCA designated-agent pages: Where to send a copyright notice for each platform, from the U.S. Copyright Office directory or the platform's own page, with the six statutory elements.

Pro is not billable yet. Pro (email intake, removal verification, printable compliance record, no branding) is priced at $29/month per site on the site but is not billable yet: no payment link is live, and every desk is free during launch and for its first year.

Our limits, stated plainly: Compliance Desk does not scan the web for copies of your content, does not send notices on your behalf, does not act as anyone's authorized agent with data brokers, and does not provide a cookie consent banner or cookie scanner. It hosts the receiving side of a request process and drafts the sending side for you to send yourself. Software and templates, not legal advice.
