Mogul is a powerful platform helping artists, producers, songwriters, managers, and business teams find, claim, and track 100% of their music royalties—without relying on spreadsheets or digging through multiple portals.

🧭 What Mogul Does

  1. Centralizes data across platforms
    Connect your distributor, PROs (ASCAP/BMI/SESAC, etc.), SoundExchange, record labels, publishers, and more. Mogul’s integrations span hundreds of services, bringing all your royalty data into one dashboard.
  2. Finds missing and unclaimed royalties
    Their algorithms analyze your catalog vs. statements, identifying gaps where tracks aren’t properly registered or paid. In early usage alone, users discovered millions in royalties owed.
  3. Helps fix issues efficiently
    Rather than guesswork, Mogul alerts you to registration errors and missing works and assists in resolving them through the platforms you're already using
  4. Provides ongoing tracking & transparency
    Monitor your catalog, registrations, and revenues regularly—getting deeper insight into stream, sync, performance, mechanical, and neighboring-rights income.

💼 Who It’s For

  • Artists, producers & composers – bedroom creators to global acts—from basic catalog tracking to full-scale income transparency.
  • Managers & business teams – understand and maximize ROI for multiple acts or catalogs.
  • Releases & labels – centralize statements and easily flag issues across royalty income paths.

Yes—even if you're not yet earning much, it helps ensure you're not leaving money on the table .

🚀 Quick Stats & Momentum

  • Surpassed $100 million in tracked royalties within three months of launch (May 9, 2024)
  • Raised $1.9 million in seed funding from top investors like United Talent Agency and former SoundCloud CEO Kerry Trainor
  • Trusted by artists like Aloe Blacc, Besomorph, Attack Attack!, and more

🔍 Why Mogul Matters

  • No oversight: It’s estimated musicians miss ~10% of their lifetime earnings due to fragmented systems.
  • Automated clarity: Imagine Mint or Plaid—but for music income. Entire revenue streams flow into one simple interface.
  • Empowerment: Mogul gives artists confidence to know what they’re owed and get it, without guesswork.

🎯 Releese + Mogul = Next‑Level Artist Strategy
