What is free and what costs
CopyrightShark offers a free scan, so the first look at your catalogue costs nothing. Paid access is a monthly fee of $59. That is the heaviest monthly price on this page: DMCA.com lists $10 and Rulta lists $10, while Takedowns.AI lists $199 to $499 for its plans. Across the category the median monthly price is €17.54 and the upper quartile is €60.51, which places CopyrightShark near the top of the range.
Using the service
Google delisting is part of the offering, so a claim can reach search results as well as the hosting page rather than stopping at the origin. Speed is the other point to weigh, and it is short: within a few hours. The same service and the same clock cover both requests, so a creator does not need a second provider for the search layer.
Removal and delisting
Removal runs from a free scan that lists the live matches, through submission, to Google delisting for the same claim. The stated turnaround is within a few hours, so the hosting page and the search result move on the same clock. That pairing, a free scan on the way in and delisting on the way out, is the coverage readers weigh against a monthly fee.
