Revise on your own timeline, or activate a song scoring 75 or higher for approved industry searches.
You keep control of your work.
You retain ownership of your music. A review is guidance, not a transfer of rights or a promise of a cut. Catalog activation is optional, and you can remove an activated song when you choose.
Built to be useful before it is expensive.
Accounts are free. Reviews cost 25¢ each, purchased as four credits for $1. Qualifying songs can be activated in the catalog for $1.50 each. There is no recurring songwriter subscription.
