The Ironclad Split Protocol

Establish absolute ownership clarity for every co-written asset.

A 5-day administrative sprint to implement airtight split protocols, secure historical co-writes, and eliminate metadata ambiguity.

The plan, day by day

  1. Day 1Review your unreleased co-written catalog. Identify every track lacking a countersigned split sheet or documented agreement.
  2. Day 2Deploy an AI prompt from AI for Musicians to generate a professional split sheet template tailored to split composition and master shares.
  3. Day 3Contact one collaborator with pending paperwork. Propose splits grounded in actual compositional contribution and the Emotional Resonance value of key hooks.
  4. Day 4Execute the agreement digitally. Log IPI numbers, PRO affiliations, and publisher details into your centralized rights ledger.
  5. Day 5Perform a final metadata audit. Ensure ISWC and ISRC tracking numbers align across all publishing portals and your master distributor.
