The 5-Day Catalog Rights and Metadata Audit

Standardize your intellectual property pipeline to handle your next release format without lost revenue.

Ensure every lyric, chord, and co-writer credit translates into uncompromised cash flow. Audit splits, PRO documentation, and metadata across your chosen format.

The plan, day by day

1. Day 1Audit your pending release material. Establish whether you have the administrative bandwidth to document splits and registrations for one track or multiple tracks.
2. Day 2Draft and sign legally binding split sheets for every collaborator on your target release using templates from Publishing Simplified.
3. Day 3Apply AI audit scripts or prompt chains to cross-check lyric files against PRO submission fields, flagging missing writer CAE numbers and spelling discrepancies.
4. Day 4Execute an Emotional Resonance sync appraisal. Tag each track with three distinct emotional descriptors and target visual media scenarios to assess commercial viability.
5. Day 5Register the finalized work with your PRO, mechanical agency, and neighbouring rights organization. Confirm all ISWCs match incoming distributor ISRCs.
