Tools
The parts that are arithmetic, not opinion.
A lot of what artists are told is complicated is just multiplication that nobody wants to do in front of them. These are free, they show their working, and each one states plainly what it does not model.
Beat Licence Checker
Pick a licence tier and what you want to do with it. Seventy-two resolved answers across the six standard tiers and twelve uses, with the specific trap named on each one. Two of them catch almost everybody: Content ID is not covered by an unlimited lease, and exclusive rights do not give you the publishing.
Recoupment calculator
Enter an advance, a royalty rate and the recoupable costs, and see the revenue required before the artist earns anything beyond money they already had, plus what the label has collected by that point. A $200,000 advance at 20% needs roughly $1,000,000 of revenue.
Split checker
Do your writer splits total 100% across every registration? The most common cause of a royalty going unmatched.
Per-stream estimator
Honest version: shows the range and explains why every published figure differs, instead of inventing one number.
