We build the infrastructure that ensures music metadata is compliant, consistent, and distribution-ready across every digital store on the planet.
Music distribution is a pipeline of precision. A single malformed ISRC, a genre mapped to the wrong taxonomy, a title that trips a store's content filter — any of these can delay a release by weeks or get it pulled entirely.
Our founding team spent years inside distribution platforms, watching the same metadata failures repeat across labels, aggregators, and DSPs. The tools to catch them didn't exist — so we built them.
Metadata Style Guidelines is the result: a deterministic, six-layer compliance engine that validates every field against every store's specification before a single byte reaches distribution.
To eliminate metadata rejection from the global music supply chain — one field at a time.
Compliance is not a checkpoint — it's a continuum. Every rule is versioned, every verdict is traceable, and every release leaves a full audit trail.
Every field, every release, every store. We hold metadata to the same standard the DSPs hold it to — no exceptions, no shortcuts.
Our pipeline is deterministic, auditable, and versioned. When a rule changes, we trace the blast radius across your entire catalog in seconds.
Metadata doesn't stop at borders. We validate against 150+ stores across 190+ markets, handling language, script, and taxonomy differences natively.
Distributors, labels, and aggregators all see the same truth. Role-based access, shared validation state, and audit trails keep everyone aligned.
Our six-layer pipeline exists to ensure no non-compliant metadata reaches a store. We measure ourselves by recall, not by throughput.
Every rule, every verdict, every suggestion is traceable to a published specification. You always know why a field failed and how to fix it.
Founded by a team of music distribution engineers frustrated by the gap between catalog metadata and store compliance requirements.
Launched the first six-layer validation pipeline, processing DDEX ERN messages against Spotify and Apple Music rule sets.
Expanded to 150+ stores with cross-language normalization, handling metadata in 40+ languages and scripts.
Integrated MusicBrainz and external registry lookup, bringing open-data cross-referencing into the compliance workflow.
