Resources

Things we made to help


Tools, guides, and courses for independent artists and songwriters. Most of it is free. All of it comes from questions artists actually asked us.

Free tools and guides

The Song Release Roadmap. One song splits into two copyrights: the composition, paid by your PRO and The MLC, and the recording, paid by your distributor and SoundExchange.

The Song Release Roadmap

Answer four questions about your song and get a step-by-step plan: what to register, where, in what order, and what you can skip. Built for artists releasing in the United States.
