Collab Chain

Collab Chain is an innovative platform specifically designed to simplify the intricate landscape of music royalties and creative ownership. It provides a secure environment for creators, producers, songwriters, managers, and rights holders to document and verify their contributions and earnings. By transforming traditional royalty statements from various sources into clear, structured, and tamper-evident records, Collab Chain addresses the common confusion surrounding royalty distributions. The platform parses uploaded data and generates a definitive overview of contribution splits and earnings entitlements, establishing a single source of truth for ownership history. This not only reduces disputes but also enhances transparency among collaborators. Importantly, Collab Chain is not a distributor or payment processor; instead, it focuses solely on verification and documentation, making it a vital tool for independent artists, label managers, and legal teams needing reliable records for audits and negotiations.

Verifiable Royalty Proof

Collab Chain converts official royalty statements into tamper-evident proof records. This feature allows users to confirm contribution splits, lock proofs, and share secure, read-only links, ensuring that all collaborators have confidence in the accuracy of the records.

Track-Level Split Confirmation

The platform provides a clear overview of split statuses for each track, indicated as Complete, Incomplete, or Not Set. This ensures that users cannot finalize their records until all splits are confirmed, preventing accidental omissions and ensuring accountability.

Secure Proof Sharing

Users can generate secure, read-only links to share proof summaries with collaborators, managers, or legal teams. This feature safeguards account privacy while allowing stakeholders to access essential information without the risk of unauthorized edits.

Supporting Evidence Inclusion

When official exports are unavailable, users can upload screenshots as supporting evidence. These images are clearly labeled to indicate they are not official statements, providing necessary context while maintaining the integrity of the primary proof records.

Independent Artists

Independent musicians can use Collab Chain to maintain a clear record of their earnings and collaborator splits across multiple releases, simplifying the management of their music catalog.

Record Labels

Labels managing a variety of artists can document production credits and revenue splits without the hassle of manual tracking, creating a transparent and verifiable record of contributions.

Songwriters

Songwriters can keep accurate, verifiable records of their writing splits and publishing shares, ensuring that they receive fair compensation for their creative contributions.

Legal Teams

Legal teams can utilize Collab Chain to obtain defensible, clear records for audits, negotiations, or conflict resolution, ensuring that they have reliable documentation for any disputes that may arise.

How does Collab Chain ensure the accuracy of royalty proofs?

Is Collab Chain a payment processor or distributor?

No, Collab Chain is neither a payment processor nor a distributor. It focuses solely on verification and documentation, providing a reliable source of truth for music ownership and royalty splits.

Can I share proof records with others?
