Why NowRising indie release volume and better DSP APIs make automated ingestion feasible; label teams face growing backlog, creating urgency for automation now.

The Pitch

Idea Description

LabelPay automates royalty reconciliation and payouts for small indie labels. It ingests DSP statements, distributor receipts, and PRO reports, reconciles plays to payments, and creates rule-based payouts to artists/rights-holders. - Automated ingestion from Spotify/Apple/YouTube + distributor CSVs. - Split rules & audit trail so labels can set per-release splits and export compliant remittance reports. - Instant micro-payouts via Stripe/WISE once reconciled.

The Edge

Differentiator

Focus on label-side workflows (release-level splits, advances, disputes) and a growing library of statement parsers; historical reconciliation data creates stickiness competitors can't quickly replicate.
