Research & IP
You need rigorous, sourced research — or a governed interface to a body of work — built by someone who ships the instrument, not just the slide.
The studio’s research surfaces and IP have standalone value at near-zero marginal cost. IGA is a working games-market research instrument. The perspective-engine pattern — a rights-gated corpus behind a retrieval-first interface that cites its sources and knows when to abstain — generalizes to estates, authors, and family enterprises. And the patent is a licensable asset in its own right. This door is optionality: small bets, honest metrics, and a clear kill-or-compound decision at every quarterly review.
The offers
IGA Research Brief
- A commissioned comparison or diligence report through the 35-dimension instrument
- Subject titles you choose
- Every claim delivered with its source pinned
- The same rigor that doubles as Fever Tilt’s design syllabus
Subject titles chosen by you; sources pinned per claim.
Ask about the IGA Research Brief ›IGA Sponsorship
- A single, tasteful sponsor slot on iga.outright.io
- A published methodology firewall protecting the research
- Sponsor exclusions — no company analyzed in the dataset
- Association with genuinely rigorous indie research
One tasteful sponsor slot, behind a published methodology firewall.
Ask about sponsorship ›Perspective Engine Pilot
- A KenLM-pattern build over one corpus you name
- A source inventory with rights statuses and canonical-work deduplication

The rights-gate is the product — we sell the inventory/audit as phase one.
Ask about the Perspective Engine Pilot ›Patent License
- The generative-music composition patent as a licensable asset
- Separate from the XJ product track
- Inbound-only; scoped and priced per deal

How it works
A Perspective Engine Pilot leads with the rights work, because the rights-gate is the differentiation:
- Inventory. Every source catalogued with its rights status; canonical works de-duplicated. Exit: a rights-cleared corpus map you can defend.
- Contract the answer. Define what the engine may say, when it must cite, and when it must abstain. Exit: a written answer contract.
- Build retrieval-first. An engine that retrieves and cites before it generates, and refuses when it shouldn’t guess. Exit: it answers with sources — and says “I don’t know” when it should.
- Deploy and evaluate. Hosted, with an eval harness so quality is a number. Exit: a running deployment and a passing eval.
Fit / not-fit
This is for you if
- You’re a publisher or fund doing diligence and want sourced, comparable games data
- You steward an estate, an archive, or a family enterprise and want a governed interface to a life’s work
- You need an answer engine that cites and abstains, not one that confidently makes things up
- You’re building a generative-music system and need to talk about the patent
We're probably not your studio if
- You want a sponsorship that bends the methodology — the firewall is published and fixed
- You want an unsourced “AI research report” with no rights inventory behind it
- You need a chatbot that answers everything confidently, citations optional
- You want to license the patent to use against the studio’s own work
