the written scope, before anything is built.

most of our engagements start with a paid diagnostic: one week and a fixed fee. it reads how you sell today and what it would take to own that channel, and it produces the written scope a build runs on, with the number and the ship date in it. if you go ahead within 90 days the whole fee comes off the build.

one week, a fixed fee, credited in full against the build within 90 days. the scope is yours either way.

what you get.

everything the diagnostic includes.

where you sell now

for today

an audit of where the roster or the catalog sells now, and what each layer takes.

  • an audit of every channel

your own fee math

for your real volume

the fees run on your actual volume, not an example.

  • the math on your numbers

who owns the customer data

for today and after

who holds it now, what it would take to hold it yourself, and what it could tell you once you do.

  • a data ownership read

the written scope

for the build

what gets built, in what order, with the number and the timeline, specific enough to hand to another studio.

  • the scope document
  • a walkthrough call with your team

builds that started this way.

  • the studio, the music brand and the marketing arm, each on its own property.
  • one storefront and one customer list under all three.
  • the catalog behind it carries nine Billboard top tens and an RIAA gold record, the client's credits.

how it runs.

  1. diagnostic

    most engagements start with a paid diagnostic: one week, a fixed fee, credited in full against the build if you go ahead within 90 days. it produces the written scope, and you keep that document either way.

  2. scope

    the scope fixes what gets built, the number and the ship date, in writing, before anything is built. the number is set by what the catalog and the roster actually need, not by a tier picked off a page.

  3. build

    the build follows the scope. the parts most agencies skip are scoped in on purpose: the licence terms written per sale, what happens to a property when an artist leaves the roster, and who sees which royalty numbers.

  4. launch and transfer

    at launch the code, the domains, the merchant account, the customer list and the analytics move into your name. no licence to renew and no monthly fee on the platform itself.

  5. after launch

    your team edits copy, prices, art and releases from a dashboard at no monthly cost. or keep the studio on a retainer for continuous engineering, billed monthly, cancellable any month.
