An English-language reference for where Chinese dramas are licensed and how to actually watch them where you live. For distributors and licensors, it also reads the demand for a title against how each market is already served.
Most guides to watching Chinese drama are lists of platforms, written once and left alone. That is not how the problem works. Licensing is decided per title, per territory, per season, and the answer for one drama tells you almost nothing about the next one.
This site is organized the other way round — one page per drama, rebuilt as the facts change. Each entry records where the show is licensed in your region, what the release schedule is on that platform, which subtitle and dub languages exist, and what to do once you have opened the app. Every row carries the date a person last checked it, and says so plainly when that date has gone stale.
For distributors and licensors it carries something we have not found published anywhere in English: for one title in one country, the demand set beside how the market is already served, meaning who carries it, how much of it is free, and in which languages. We call that reading licensing value. It is available on request, and the Industry page has three worked cases.

If you watch Chinese drama, each title page tells you where it is licensed in your country, what it costs, which subtitle and dub languages exist, and how to open it. Start from the index.
If you are a studio, distributor, licensor or platform, the Industry page is written for you: what the count holds, licensing value, and how to ask.
Every route on this site is opened by a person, from inside the country it is listed for, on a recorded date. Subtitles and dubs are read together, machine-made tracks are marked where the platform marks them, and a country nobody has checked says so.
The full method, the rule for which titles are on the list, and the data credits have their own page: Research Methodology.
