Free to join. No out-of-pocket fees, ever.
How it works
Upload your catalogue once. We handle the matching, the claims, and the collecting from there.
Step 2
Confirm your metadata, add your ISRCs if you have them, and answer a short onboarding questionnaire.
Step 3
We fingerprint your catalogue, claim the videos that use it, and collect the revenue. Most tracks are approved within a week.

Your music is already earning on YouTube, Facebook, and Instagram. Usage makes sure the money reaches you.
YouTube Content ID
- Video

You get a clear view of where your music is being used, and the final say on each match: leave the video up and take the revenue, or take it down.
Facebook Rights Manager
- Video
- Stories
- Live
Facebook now rivals YouTube on monthly views, and eligible music creators can earn from it.
Usage claims your music wherever it lands: uploaded video, Stories, and Live broadcasts.
Instagram Rights Manager
- Reels
- Video
- Stories
- Live
Instagram has become the biggest source of short-form video built on music, and almost none of it is licensed by the person posting it.
The same claims that cover Facebook cover Instagram, so Reels and Stories using your music start earning too.
