STREAMING ROYALTY CALCULATOR

Our estimator is getting a tune-up.

To provide you with even more accurate, data-driven insights, our royalty calculator is temporarily offline for a major upgrade. Our new and improved tool will be back online later this year.

While we prepare for the relaunch, you can still find out if you're leaving money on the table.

We Use Real-Time Data From Global Streaming Platforms

A Note on Our Methodology: Our previous estimator was powered by real-time data from all major streaming platforms in the U.S. and Canada. We used this historical data to provide artists with a general idea of what their songs earned so they could identify royalties that may have been left on the table. We are currently refining these data models to bring you a more robust experience in our upcoming relaunch.

What Publishing Royalties Are You Earning?

As a songwriter, every time your music is streamed, performed, or sold, it generates two distinct types of publishing royalties:

  • Performance Royalties: Generated when your music is played on the radio, performed live in a venue, broadcast on TV, or played via non-interactive streaming (like Pandora).
  • Mechanical Royalties: Earned from physical sales, digital downloads, and every time your song is played on interactive streaming services (like Spotify, Apple Music, and Tidal).
