OUR SERVICES
For Performing Artists
We manage the artists' royalties and provide performance insights. Whenever a performer contributes to a sound recording, the neighbouring rights royalties are generated by means of broadcast. We work directly with over 50 collecting societies worldwide to ensure the collection and distribution of 100% of the royalties the artist is due.
For Master Rights Owners
We manage and administer record labels' and any master right owners' catalogues, register the recordings directly at collecting societies and distribute the public performance royalties. We developed a robust data quality check system to ensure the recordings are registered according to the industry rules, and we actively pursue missing revenue and counterclaims.
For Composers and Publishers
We offer the administration of your music catalogue and the efficient registration of your works with performing rights organisations worldwide. We monitor the usage of your compositions and provide performance insights while ensuring the collection of royalties and distribution of remuneration.
