Suno AI identified as generation tool. Usage scope: full instrumental and vocal generation from author-supplied lyrics.
Creative Decision Log
Timestamped evidence trail documenting every human creative decision — the backbone of a defensible claim.
Deterministic Claim Language Mapping
Why this language?
This language maps documented contributor roles to USCO-recognized categories: literary authorship (lyrics) and creative selection/arrangement. The iterative generation process establishes human creative control beyond mere prompting.
USCO Registration Guidance, 88 Fed. Reg. 16,190 (Mar. 16, 2023)
Why this language?
The USCO requires New Material Included to match Author Created. This field confirms what you are adding to the public domain material you excluded above.
USCO Registration Guidance, 88 Fed. Reg. 16,190 (Mar. 16, 2023)
Why this language?
The USCO requires disclosure of AI-generated material. All sonic elements generated by Suno are excluded because the AI system — not the human author — determined their specific expression.
USCO Registration Guidance — 'Material Excluded'; Part 2 Report (Jan. 2025)
Why this language?
This Note preempts common examiner questions by delineating human vs. AI contributions and establishing that the claimed elements reflect original creative expression under the Feist standard.
USCO Registration Guidance — supplemental explanation field
The USCO Limitation of Claim screen has 3 text fields and 2 checkboxes. RightsDocket has 56+ decision nodes mapped behind them — every branch tested against the 2023 USCO Registration Guidance, the 2025 Part 2 Report, and examiner correspondence patterns from Zarya of the Dawn and subsequent cases.
This is what $20 buys you: compressed expert reasoning, not a fillable PDF.
Risk Flags & Filing Guidance
The USCO may ask how the author's selection of AI outputs constitutes sufficient creative expression. Document the number of outputs evaluated, the criteria used for selection, and any modifications made between generation cycles.
See Zarya of the Dawn (Reg. # VAu001480196) — USCO limited registration to selection/arrangement that was 'sufficiently creative.'
If this work will be commercially distributed, adding an ISRC strengthens the link between the claim and the distributed recording.
Best practice for works intended for commercial distribution.

In this sample, the supported WAV asset carries the embedded C2PA manifest. The Rights Receipt, Trust Review, and filing context live in the Provenance Pack, not in the C2PA manifest.
This sample pack was generated by RightsDocket's deterministic evidence, review, verification, and release-readiness workflow. It does not constitute legal advice. Registration decisions are made by the U.S. Copyright Office. The claim language in this report is rule-mapped from user inputs — it is not generated by a large language model.
