How a match proceeds
- 1
Submit metadata
A seller describes an archive. The record stays unapproved, and ownership stays claimed-but-unreviewed.
- 2
Operator approval
An operator can publish the metadata. That action does not clear rights and does not attach files.
- 3
Buyer approval
A registered buyer cannot request a match until an operator approves the profile.
- 4
Checkpoints
Consent, an NDA status record, and a rights review come before any private name or sample note.
- 5
Bilateral offer
The seller states a price. Both parties accept the same number. Neither side is bound by a template in this MVP.
- 6
Specification request
Catalog buttons request a specification. A browser return leaves the deal unpaid.
The NDA control records a status. It does not present a legally approved template and it does not collect a signature. Dataset deals still require an approved fee before any later payment path. The public catalog does not open Whop from this site.
