Learn ArtistLauncher, one step at a time

Getting started on ArtistLauncher

Create your account, find your way around the dashboard, and understand how one account works for artists, curators and fans alike.

Add a track and get its Track Page

Every track gets one shareable page with your artwork, a player, links to every streaming service and pre-saves. Here's how to create one and make it great.

Submit your music to playlist curators

Find Spotify playlists that are open to submissions, choose how much feedback you want, and track every decision. You pay for an honest review, not a guaranteed add.

Send your music to stations, shows and blogs

Radio stations, shows, blogs and labels on ArtistLauncher have submission buttons on their Pages. Sending them a track is free and takes a minute.

Check if a song is ready for sync licensing

A free, private 50-point checklist that shows how ready a song is for film, TV, ads, trailers and games, and what to fix first.

Set up as a playlist curator

Add your Spotify playlists, prove they're yours, activate them and choose which kinds of submissions you accept. Then artists can start sending you music.

Review submissions and give feedback

Listen to what artists send you, decide whether it fits, and write feedback that helps. You're paid for your honest opinion, whether you add the track or not.

Your earnings and getting paid

How curator and store earnings reach you, how much you earn per review, and how to withdraw.

Create a Page for your station, show, blog or business

A Page is your home on ArtistLauncher: live radio, shows, a submission inbox, your catalogue, playlists, a store and posts, all at one address you can share.

Take music submissions on your Page

Add submission buttons to your Page so artists can send you music the way you want it, then review everything in one organised inbox.

Find who to pitch in the Indie Rolodex

The Indie Rolodex is a community-built directory of playlist curators, radio stations and shows, blogs and channels that take submissions. Search it, read how each one wants to be pitched, and write to them.

Build reusable lists with the screener

Filter the whole Rolodex in one table, select exactly who you want, such as jazz radio in Canada, and save them as a list you can pitch again for every release.

Run an email campaign to a list

Pitch everyone on a list with one personalised email each. ArtistLauncher checks every contact's rules first, sends at a safe pace, and shows who opened your Track Page and clicked to listen.

Credits, your wallet and what things cost

How credits work, how to buy them, what they pay for, and where to see every transaction.

Your email allowance for pitches

How many pitches you can send for free, how to get more, and what's never charged.

Feed, messages, notifications and Discord

Post updates, follow people and Pages, choose which notifications and emails you get, and join the ArtistLauncher community on Discord.
