The recording session is the easy part. What matters is what is written down before it, who controls the model afterwards, and what actually stops when the deal ends.
Here is what to settle before you record.
There is a large difference between access and a copy.
Access. A company hosts the voice model and a brand generates through a metered system limited to the deal. When the deal ends, access can end. Usage can be counted because generation stays inside the system.
A copy. The brand receives a model file, training data, or a voice it can host itself. A written expiry can still bind the parties, but the technical control has left the platform. Ask who can keep each file, where it can move, and how deletion is evidenced.
A dashboard is useful, but it is still the platform describing its own database. A stronger record can be checked outside that dashboard.
Look for signed terms that cannot be edited after the fact, the agreement committed by hash so it cannot be swapped, the exact voice asset and version covered by the licence, and a timestamped record that cannot be quietly back-dated.
You do not need to understand the cryptography. You need to be able to hand the record to a lawyer or technical reviewer and let them get an answer without the platform changing the evidence.
This public record needs no account:
https://id.socialgravity.ai/functions/v1/idl-verify?id=L55CQIONWR3It shows the asset and version, use case, channels, territories, term, signed-agreement hash and post-expiry terms. It does not publish the private agreement or price.
The record is SocialGravity licensing its own founder's voice. It is a real signed licence, not an arm's-length customer deal. We state that because the distinction matters.
The verifier is open source and runs locally: github.com/socialgravity/receipts.

This is not legal advice. If the deal is meaningful, have a qualified lawyer read it.
