Artist services

Powering artists
worldwide

Distribution is the easy part. Everything after it — royalties, publishing, collaborators, rights, pitching, paperwork — is where most artists lose money and time. Leo Network handles all of it in one account, with a real team behind it.

Support &
guidance

A real team for metadata, claims, rights questions and release strategy — not a chatbot.

Release management

We stay with a release
long after it goes live

Most distributors stop at delivery. The work that earns money happens in the months afterwards.

  1. Before

    Plan & prepare

    Release date strategy, metadata and credits, artwork checks, ISRC and UPC assignment, splits agreed up front.

  2. Launch

    QC & deliver

    Human quality control against store rules, delivery to 120+ platforms, pitching for eligible releases, smart link live.

  3. After

    Track & react

    Daily analytics, playlist adds, UGC monitoring — so you know within days whether to put money behind it.

  4. Ongoing

    Collect & pay

    Royalties, publishing and Content ID income collected every cycle, split automatically, withdrawn monthly.

Playlist pitching

Real curators. No paid placements.

We pitch eligible releases to editorial teams and independent curators across Spotify, Apple Music and YouTube, and we tell you exactly what came back — including when the answer is nothing.

What we will never do is buy placements. Pay-for-placement playlists inflate your numbers with listeners who skip instantly, which tells the algorithm your track is weak and can get your release flagged. Short-term vanity, long-term damage.

  • Pitch 2–4 weeks ahead — editorial only accepts unreleased tracks
  • Every add tracked in your analytics, with listener numbers
  • No guarantees, ever — anyone promising placement is selling you something

Who it's for

Built for whoever
owns the music

Independent artists

Releasing on your own

Free distribution, your own release dates, and the same publishing and Content ID tools a label would use. Nothing to pay until your music earns.

Labels & imprints

Running a roster

Your own label name on every release, catalog migration with your existing UPCs, roster-wide analytics and per-artist splits.

Managers & producers

Handling other people's rights

Split agreements set once and enforced on every payout, transparent statements you can forward, and recoup rules for recording costs.

Ownership

100% ownership retained

You keep full ownership of everything you create while we handle the publishing, registrations and monetization behind the scenes. We administer; we never acquire.

  • Your masters, your songs — always in your name
  • Leave whenever — no long-term contracts or exit fees
  • Full transparency on every claim we register on your behalf
  • Your music stays up if you stop paying — we don't hold releases hostage

Artist services FAQ

Frequently
asked questions

Something specific to your catalog? Contact our team.

What is included in artist services?

Distribution to 120+ stores, publishing administration and royalty collection, split payments, YouTube Content ID and OAC support, smart links, daily analytics, playlist pitching for eligible releases, and a real support team. There are no per-service add-on fees.

Do I pay extra for any of these services?

No. Everything is included in your plan. Free keeps 85% of your royalties; Pro keeps 100% for a monthly subscription. Nothing is unlocked by a separate purchase.

Can you guarantee playlist placement?

No — and be sceptical of anyone who does. We pitch eligible releases to editorial and independent curators and report every result honestly, including the rejections. We never use pay-for-placement services, which produce fake engagement and can get your release flagged.

Do you work with labels as well as solo artists?

Yes. Labels get roster-wide analytics, catalog migration with your existing UPCs, per-artist splits and your own imprint name on every release.

Can I move an existing catalog to Leo Network?

Yes. Bring your own UPCs and ISRCs so your streaming history and playlist positions carry over. Ask your current distributor to release the catalog first, then our team will handle the migration with you.

How fast does support reply?

Typically within one business day by email, and Pro accounts are prioritised in the queue. Complex rights or claims questions can take longer because a person actually investigates them.

What happens to my music if I stop paying for Pro?

Nothing is taken down. You simply return to Free plan terms — your releases stay live, your catalog stays yours, and your revenue share goes back to 85%.
