An AI-powered forensic music royalty audit. SongBounty cross-references your catalog against the MLC, ASCAP, BMI, SESAC, GMR, SoundExchange, and 12+ streaming and metadata sources — then quantifies every gap, every territory miss, and every derivative leak in dollars. Machine-learning enrichment fills missing ISRCs, ISWCs, and writer IPIs at scale.
A music royalty audit pipeline turns scattered streaming data, PRO databases, and metadata feeds into one reconciled view of what your catalog actually earns. SongBounty runs three AI-driven phases — Detect, Analyze, and Quantify — closing every royalty gap and enriching your metadata along the way.
Our AI engine cross-references your catalog against 12+ data sources — Spotify, MLC, ASCAP, BMI, YouTube, Deezer, MusicBrainz, Genius, and more. Every recording is matched against ISRCs, ISWCs, and platform IDs to identify what's missing. Simultaneously, we enrich your catalog metadata with audio fingerprints, genre classification, and alternate identifiers.
Deep AI-driven metadata enrichment: writer IPIs, PRO affiliations, territory registrations across 90+ countries, derivative detection (sped-up, slowed, remix versions), and shadow work identification. We enrich every record with ISRCs, ISWCs, writer IPIs, genre data, and PRO registration status — filling gaps your distributor missed.
Revenue quantification using CRB-validated rates. A prioritized fix-it list with exact filing steps so you can claim what's yours. Not just problems — solutions ranked by dollar impact, with enriched data ready for submission.
Every SongBounty audit delivers a comprehensive Excel workbook — 10 diagnostic sheets covering metadata enrichment, MLC matching, shadow works, PRO writer data, territory coverage, derivative leaks, CRB-validated revenue estimates, and a prioritized fix-it action plan.

ISRCs, ISWCs, platform IDs with AI-scored confidence.
BPM, key, mood, genre tags, and sync placement categories.
MLC registration status, work codes, and publisher data.
DSP recordings missing from MLC — royalties sitting uncollected.

Every audit flag is classified by severity — critical, high, medium, low — and tied to the revenue at risk, so you know exactly where to file the next mechanical claim, PRO registration, or Content ID dispute first.
Recordings on platforms with no ISRC registered — impossible to track or collect royalties.
Streams generating mechanicals that sit in the MLC's unmatched pool — unclaimed revenue.
Conflicting ownership claims across databases that freeze royalty payments entirely.
Tracks with significant stream counts and missing registrations — large dollar amounts at stake.
Sped-up or remixed versions generating streams without a mechanical license in place.
Works registered in some countries but not others — royalties uncollected in missing territories.
Writer records without IPI numbers, preventing proper royalty routing through societies.
