Introducing TIDAL Tools for Songwriters

About TIDAL Artist Home

TIDAL Artist Home is the ultimate hub for artists looking to grow their career and spread their music as far as possible on TIDAL. Within the platform, artists get full control of their profiles with tons of features, like the power to assign access to team members through invitations, the ability to update artist profiles and social media skins, report content issues and more, giving you and your team the ultimate power over your content.

This platform helps artists put their best foot forward and manage their profile on TIDAL exactly how they want it. Now, they’ve launched new tools to confront one of the most important hurdles songwriters face, properly collecting composition royalties.

What’s new?

Collecting composition royalties and dealing with performing rights organizations isn’t always a walk in the park. Not only can it be confusing for a beginner songwriter, but messing up this process may leave you missing out on money that you’ve earned fair and square. That’s why TIDAL has partnered with AllTrack to alleviate this stress, and help artists and songwriters like you make the most of your efforts.

With these new tools, you can fully control who has access to your catalog, easily manage your publisher info, find and fix unmatched compositions, sign off on split sheets from your creative collaborators, and more, all in one place.

• Own Your Songwriter Profile // Easily organize and manage your PRO (Performing Rights Organization), IPI (your unique songwriter ID number), and publisher info.
• Set Your Credits Straight // TIDAL’s songwriter tools surface all your existing credits, all in one place — including any unmatched or incomplete compositions. Here, you can check individual works to find and report inaccuracies and add in any missing metadata.
• Control Access // You decide who can view, edit, and help manage your catalog. Assign permissions to teammates like publishers and managers, then remove permissions when roles change.

These features are currently only available for US-based songwriters. If this applies to you, click here to sign up on TIDAL and get started today. To learn more about everything else TIDAL has to offer, check out their website here.
