Collab Chain

Collab Chain is a revolutionary platform designed specifically to address the challenges of music royalty verification. In an industry often plagued by ambiguity and confusion, it offers creators, producers, songwriters, and rights holders a solution that provides verifiable proof of ownership and earnings. Unlike traditional platforms that focus on distribution or payment processing, Collab Chain emphasizes the importance of immutable records. The core value proposition lies in transforming chaotic royalty statements from various sources into structured, tamper-evident proof records. This ensures that every user has access to a single, credible source of truth regarding contribution splits and royalty entitlements. By facilitating clearer communication and reducing disputes among collaborators, Collab Chain empowers users to confidently prove their claims, shifting the focus from speculation to solid evidence.

Tamper-Evident Proof Records

Collab Chain transforms official royalty statements into verifiable, tamper-evident proof records. This feature ensures that every document is securely locked and can be trusted, significantly reducing the chances of disputes.

Split Confirmation Status

With track-level visibility, users can see the status of splits—whether they are complete, incomplete, or not set—at a glance. This feature prevents accidental omissions and ensures that all contributors are accounted for before finalizing records.

Secure Sharing Options

Users can generate read-only links to share proof records with collaborators, managers, or legal teams. This feature allows recipients to view proof summaries without risking account access or modifications, enhancing privacy and security.

Supporting Evidence Integration

In cases where official exports are unavailable, users can upload screenshots as supporting evidence. Clearly labeled as non-official, this feature adds context to the proof without compromising its integrity or validity.

For Independent Artists

Independent artists can utilize Collab Chain to maintain a clear record of their earnings and collaborator splits across multiple releases, ensuring transparency and accountability within their creative partnerships.

For Producers

Producers can document their production credits and percentages efficiently, alleviating the need to chase down paperwork. This ensures they receive the recognition and compensation they deserve for their contributions.

For Songwriters

Songwriters benefit from keeping verifiable records of their writing splits and publishing shares, which are crucial for negotiations with publishers and other stakeholders in the music industry.

For Managers

Managers can organize and oversee statements across their artist roster, facilitating easier sharing of proofs with stakeholders. This streamlines the process of managing multiple artists and their respective earnings.

How does Collab Chain ensure the integrity of my data?

Collab Chain ensures data integrity by preserving original files and creating deterministic, tamper-evident proofs. This means that once a record is locked, it cannot be altered or tampered with.

Can I use Collab Chain if I only have screenshots of my royalty statements?

Yes, you can upload screenshots as supporting evidence when official exports are unavailable. However, these will be clearly labeled as non-official and will not contribute to the calculations of your proofs.

Is Collab Chain compliant with industry standards?

Collab Chain is designed to meet industry standards for record-keeping and royalty verification. By focusing on verifiable proof, it aligns with best practices in the music industry.

What types of official statements does Collab Chain accept?

Collab Chain accepts PDF or CSV exports from distributors, publishers, and PROs, including platforms like DistroKid, SoundExchange, Apple Music, and Spotify for Artists, among others.
