Songwriter Kit

Every co-write on paper the same day, confirmed by everyone on it before the room empties; every song registered everywhere it earns; every hold and cut followed through to the money.

$29 a month
Or $399 for good. Monthly renews until you stop it from the store, and runs to the end of the month paid for. Every tool reads the same songs, so they work as one.

What it does for you

Figures from the demo every tool runs on: an invented artist's year, so you can see each tool at work before your own songs go in. Press any screen to open it.

17 daysA co-write with no split on paper yet, flagged until the sheet is made

The write, on paper

Who was there, what was made, what each person agreed, and the split sheet made from the room: a split agreed now takes a minute; agreed after the song earns, it takes lawyers.

Sessions: try it on the demo

70 daysNorthbound has sat on hold; the toolkit says when to ask where it stands

Holds and cuts, followed

Which songs are free to pitch, which are on hold and with whom, which were cut, who to pitch each one to and why, and a warning before a song goes out with no split sheet behind it.
