About SongBounty
Artists should not have to
go looking for their own money.
Music royalties are paid by a dozen organisations that have never heard of each other. Money goes missing in the seams between them, and the people it belongs to are the least equipped to find it. We built the audit that does.
The product
A forensic audit of everything your catalogue is owed.
Connect your artist profile or upload a catalogue. SongBounty matches every recording on ISRC, ISWC and title-plus-writer, checks it against each place a royalty can sit, and prices what it finds.
Performance
Radio, venues and TV, collected by your PRO
International
Foreign societies you are not registered with
Neighbouring
Broadcast royalties owed on the master

Platforms your catalogue never reached
AI exposure
Training datasets your recordings turn up in
Two sides of the same catalogue, tracked separately: the recording you made, and the composition you wrote. They are owed by different people, and confusing them is how money is lost.
Who it is for
Anyone the money should reach.
A catalogue is read differently depending on who owns it, so the product asks who you are before it asks anything else. Each answer reshapes the scan, the questions and the payee.

Why SongBounty
Three decisions that make this different from everything else you can hire.
A flat fee, never a percentage
Every royalty service we looked at takes a cut of what it recovers. That earns most when you were owed most, and nothing at all when the answer is that you are fine. We charge for the audit. What it finds is yours.
Seventeen sources, not the easy three
Most tools read the platforms that publish an API and stop. The money that goes missing sits at the societies that do not — foreign PROs, neighbouring-rights bodies, mechanical collectives. Those are the ones worth reading.
The whole catalogue, not a sample
A scan reads every recording you have, and reports the gaps it cannot price as gaps rather than dropping them quietly. Partial answers are how money goes missing in the first place.

Our mission
Turn a question nobody can answer into a number you can act on.
Find it
Read every source at once and put a number on what each one is holding, so the question stops being whether you are owed anything and becomes how much.
Say what is estimated
Some figures are money a society is already holding for you. Others are sized from real streams and airplay. Those are different kinds of true, and every screen labels which is which rather than merging them into one confident number.
Make it actionable
A number nobody can act on is trivia. Every finding carries the next step — who to register with, what a claim needs, how long it takes.
Where this goes
Every artist knows what they are owed, without asking.
Three steps, in order. Each one is only worth building once the one before it is true.
Every independent artist audits for free
The first scan costs nothing and needs no card. Knowing whether you are owed money should never be the paid part.
The audit runs itself
Catalogues change, registrations lapse, new territories start streaming. Scans re-run every month so leakage surfaces on its own instead of waiting for someone to think of looking.
Finding it becomes collecting it
Today we tell you who to file with. The distance between a finding and the money arriving is the thing we are working to close.
