Music Money Tracker
Stop guessing what
artists are owed.
Track income, expenses, recoupment, and what is payable on a release, so the numbers are clear before the money conversation happens.
For the people behind the artist: managers, indie labels, finance and operations people, and artist teams who need clean numbers.
Release money gets messy fast.
Most teams are managing real money in places it was never meant to live.
Before MMT
- Figures scattered across email threads and WhatsApp messages
- Costs living in inboxes, not in one clear view
- No clear recoupment position until you manually work it out
- Artists asking what they're owed, with no clean answer ready
- Statements built from scratch every time, error-prone
After MMT
- One clear view of the full release: income, costs, and what is left
- Everything in one place, easy to review and share
- Recoupment worked out automatically as you enter the numbers
- A clean statement you can actually show the artist
- Less confusion and fewer difficult conversations before payment

Why it matters
Built to make money payment time straightforward.
When the numbers are unclear, money conversations become difficult. Artists wonder what they're owed. Managers scramble to explain. Labels are stuck between not having the figures and not wanting to get them wrong.
The MMT Release Tracker exists to close that gap: clear figures, worked out properly, before the conversation happens. Not accounting. Not legal advice. Just a clean view of what the release made, what it cost, and what is left.
See how it worksIs this for you?
We'd rather be honest about the fit than sell to the wrong person.
