Songtrust

aid: songtrust
name: Songtrust
description: Songtrust is a New York City-based music publishing administration platform and a Downtown Music company. The
  service helps songwriters, producers, composers, and independent publishers register their compositions and collect global
  publishing royalties — including performance, mechanical, digital, micro-sync, and neighboring rights — through a network
  of 65+ collection societies and pay sources across 240 countries and territories. Songtrust's web-based dashboard provides
  song registration, catalog management, writer and publisher splits, royalty statement matching, metadata enrichment, weekly
  song monitoring, and quarterly payouts, while letting clients retain 100% ownership of their copyrights. The commercial
  model is a one-time $100 sign-up fee per songwriter plus 15% of collected performance royalties and 20% of non-performance
  royalties — positioned as a transparent flat-rate alternative to traditional publisher deals. As of this profile, Songtrust
  does not expose a public developer API, OpenAPI specification, SDK, or partner integration portal; the platform is consumed
  exclusively through the Songtrust client dashboard at app.songtrust.com. Integrations and data exchange with PROs, mechanical
  rights societies, DSPs, and Downtown sister companies are operated internally rather than through a documented public surface.
