FAQ

Pricing & Plan Questions.


Send us 3–5 songs from your catalog (CSV or Excel with Song Title, Artist, and Composer). SongBounty runs the full MONITOR-tier audit pipeline — MLC, PROs, territory, and derivative checks — and delivers a complete 10-sheet report within 24–48 hours. No credit card. No commitment. The report is yours to keep.


You review the report and the dollar value of the gaps we found. If the recoverable revenue justifies it, pick the AUDIT, PROTECT, or MONITOR plan that fits your catalog size. If not, you keep the sample report and walk away — no follow-up calls, no obligation.


Yes. Every SongBounty plan is month-to-month with no annual contracts. Upgrade to PROTECT or MONITOR to add territory and derivative coverage, or move catalog tiers as your song count grows. Downgrade or cancel at any time and changes take effect on the next billing cycle.


No. SongBounty charges a flat monthly fee for the audit and monitoring service. You keep 100% of every dollar you recover from the MLC, your PROs, SoundExchange, YouTube Content ID, and any other source. We never sit between you and your royalty payments.


Publishing admins collect royalties on works you're already registered for, then take 15–20% commission forever. SongBounty audits what's MISSING — unregistered works, unclaimed mechanicals, territory gaps, shadow registrations, and unauthorized derivatives — and charges a flat fee with zero commission on what you recover.


AUDIT (6 sheets): Metadata enrichment, Sync & Audio Analysis, Mechanical & MLC status, Unmatched Recordings, Shadow Works, Financial Summary. PROTECT (8 sheets) adds PRO Writers & IPIs and Territory Coverage. MONITOR (10 sheets) adds Derivative Leak Detection and Fix-It Priority Actions ranked by dollar impact.


If your first month's scan finds zero royalty leakage, we refund that month in full. After the first month, you're paying for ongoing monitoring — new MLC unmatched entries, derivative uploads, and territory gaps can appear at any time, especially as you release new music.


First scans complete within 24–48 hours for catalogs up to 50 songs and within 3–5 business days for catalogs over 300. Monthly re-scans on the PROTECT and MONITOR plans are automated and delivered on the 1st of each month, along with a change-log highlighting new flags since the previous run.


No. SongBounty never asks for distributor, PRO, or streaming logins. We only need a CSV or Excel file with your song titles, artists, and composers. All analysis is run against public registries, licensed APIs, and our internal data partners.
