Introducing the Amuse Deal Tracker: Full Deal Transparency for Master Royalties
At Amuse, we’re all about putting power back into the hands of independent artists. From self-service distribution to flexible funding and Artist Services, our goal is to help artists make informed decisions about their careers, so they can stay independent. Now, we’re taking another big step toward transparency with our latest feature: Deal Tracker—a tool designed to give artists clear visibility into their Amuse funding and licensing deals directly within the Amuse app.

Control Your Career Without Compromise
The music industry has long been known for its lack of transparency, especially when it comes to financials. Major labels and distributors tend to leave artists in the dark, offering little to no insight into how much they’ve recouped or what’s left to be paid. At Amuse, we’re changing that.
We help making music work for artists and music professionals at every stage of their journey. Alongside our open-to-all, self-serve distribution, our Artist Services division works with 300+ select artists and teams, helping them to amplify the reach and impact of their music.
We invest in these partnerships with artists by licensing portions of their catalog, providing them with the resources to accelerate their careers while maintaining control of their rights. In return, we receive a tailored share of royalties for a limited period—ensuring artists retain long-term ownership and creative freedom. It's not just a better deal - it's the future of artist deals.
With Deal Tracker, artists with Amuse licensing partnerships can now:
View their recoupment balance
Easily see how much they’ve earned and how much remains to be recouped against their funding or royalty advance.
Track earnings across deals
Separate balances for licensed and unlicensed earnings for a clearer financial picture.
Withdraw royalties (coming soon!)
Get access to royalties earned under Funding and Services agreements, all within the app.
Get a complete breakdown of your Amuse licensing deals, and how your tracking against recoupment.
Built for Independent Artists, By People Who Get It
“For a long time, we’ve been hearing from artists that they want more insight into their deal terms and earnings,” says Erik Söderblom, CPO at Amuse. “The Deal Tracker has been a longstanding idea within our team, and we’re proud to finally release it. Independent artists deserve real-time access to their financials, and this is a big step towards a more transparent and artist-friendly music industry.”
The Deal Tracker will roll out to all artists with Amuse licensing and funding deals this February, available across iOS, Android, and Web apps.
More Than a Feature—A Movement
Amuse has always been about empowering artists. Our Artist Services division supports 300+ independent artists with funding, catalog optimization, marketing, sync, and publishing, all tailored to their needs. We believe transparency is key to helping artists take control of their careers, and Deal Tracker is another step in that direction.
The next generation of artists is rising, and they deserve tools that work for them—not against them. Welcome to the future of independent music.
