Question 1

Why is Rulta so much more expensive for the same core work?

Accepted Answer

Rulta has been in the creator space longer and has built pricing around a paid-content piracy model. Higher tiers unlock large-scale scanning which matters for creators with big piracy footprints. For creators with smaller footprints, the price premium is often unjustified.

Question 2

Does Rulta file as authorized agent?

Accepted Answer

Rulta files DMCA notices for creators, but the public documentation does not consistently specify whether every notice is filed under their corporate agent credential versus the creator's name. If your identity being in Lumen is a concern, ask explicitly before signing.

Question 3

Can IntimaShield handle the same volume as Rulta Legend tier?

Accepted Answer

Realistically, no. Rulta Legend is built for creators with six-figure piracy URL counts per year. IntimaShield Shield is built for typical individual creator volume. If you are at Legend-tier volume, Rulta's infrastructure is closer to your needs. If you are at Pro-tier volume or below, IntimaShield is dramatically cheaper for the same outcome.
