How do I get started with my account?


A) Add a Creator Profile

Users are prompted to make a Creator Profile when they first set up an account. If you chose to skip this step, you can make your Creator Profile by going to the settings tab in the top right corner of the page.

Users need to make a Creator Profile in order to submit tracks to exclusive briefs, so don’t miss this step!

You can drag and drop files directly onto the screen to upload up to 100 tracks at once or you can select “Choose files” to upload files from your desktop. If you want to see how a song might do on our platform during the trial, we recommend you have a batch that is approved by your writers to submit. Once a track is uploaded, the platform will automatically generate metadata tags for the track’s genre, mood, bpm, instruments, vocals, etc. This helps Creators and Buyers sift through music on the platform with ease.
