Independent artists
You've built a real catalog. You want to know if it's working.
Is your catalog
more broken
than you think?
Fragmented ISRCs. Unlinked compositions.
Invisible conflicts across distributors.
The result: split royalty streams, diluted song statistics, sync licenses you can't close, and payments flowing into pools that were never yours to begin with.
Catalog Audit finds what broke - and where.
01 Distribution was democratized.
Distribution was democratized.
Catalog management was not.
Every track you release moves through a web of registries, identifiers, and royalty systems - built for label infrastructure, inherited by independent artists without a manual.
ISRCs identify recordings. ISWCs identify compositions. PROs collect performance royalties. The MLC collects mechanical royalties. SoundExchange handles US digital performance. Neighboring rights societies handle the rest of the world.
None of these systems talk to each other. None of them will tell you when something breaks.
02
Here's what breaking looks like
Release a track through one distributor - they assign an ISRC. Release it again through another - they assign a different one. Spotify indexes them as two separate recordings. Streams split. Statistics fragment. Neither platform tells you.
Or: your composition is registered with your PRO, but the ISRC and ISWC were never correctly linked inside The MLC. Mechanical royalties generate with every stream - and flow directly into the unmatched pool.
Beyond the money: a catalog with fragmented identity can't be evaluated for sync licensing. It can't be accurately valued. It can't be sold cleanly. Every broken link is a liability that compounds.
03 Catalog Audit
Catalog Audit
Tool 1 in the Catalogos suite
We audit the identity layer of your catalog - the foundation that every royalty system, licensing deal, and platform relationship depends on.
Upload your distributor export. Everything processes locally - your sensitive catalog data never leaves your browser. We generate a report organized by royalty stream, showing exactly what's broken, what's uncertain, and what to address first.
- ISRC health Duplicates, format errors, metadata gaps
- PRO registration Composition coverage, ISWC assignment, split accuracy
- MLC mechanical registration The critical ISRC-to-ISWC link that determines whether streaming royalties reach you
- SoundExchange, neighboring rights, Content ID V1 Statement anomalies and digital performance coverage
04 For the people who know
For the people who know
what this costs
If you've managed a catalog at any real scale, you know this problem intimately. You've seen ISRC conflicts after a re-release. You've tracked down mechanical royalties that should have been there. You've had a sync supervisor ask for metadata you couldn't cleanly deliver.
What you haven't had is a tool that surfaces these problems systematically - across distributors, across royalty streams, across every recording in the catalog - without requiring a rights administration team to run it.
That's what Catalog Audit is.
Clean catalog identity before anything else - before registration audits, before licensing pitches, before valuation. The layer every other tool assumes is already correct.
05
Who it's for
Songwriters
Your compositions generate royalties across multiple pipelines. You need to know the links are intact.
Producers
You own masters across multiple projects. Clean identity matters at scale.
Independent labels
The catalog management function you don't have a budget for yet.

FAQ
What is an ISRC conflict - and why does it matter?
An ISRC (International Standard Recording Code) is the 12-character identifier attached to every recording. When the same track gets released through multiple distributors, each may assign a different ISRC - splitting streams, fragmenting statistics, and breaking the metadata links that royalty systems depend on. Catalog Audit detects these conflicts automatically.
What do I need to upload?
A distributor export from DistroKid or TuneCore is enough to start. More sources narrow the findings further.
Is this the same as a registration audit?
No. Registration audits check whether you're enrolled in the right places - they assume your catalog identity is already clean. We verify the identity layer first, so any audit you run after is working from accurate data.
Do you store my data?
No. Everything processes in your browser. Your catalog data never leaves your device.
Is this legal or financial advice?
No. We surface factual catalog health information. What you do with it is your call.

Catalog Audit is Tool 1 in the Catalogos suite - music catalog management software built for independent artists, songwriters, producers, and labels. The roadmap includes ISRC issuance, registration completeness mapping, guided remediation workflows, royalty gap analysis, and catalog valuation tooling. Built for the independent music creator who inherited the catalog management function without the infrastructure to run it.
