Frequently Asked Questions

TrapRoyaltiesPro is an enterprise-grade music rights management platform built specifically for independent artists, producers, labels, and entertainment attorneys. We provide catalog auditing, royalty recovery, digital contract signing, split verification, and DDEX distribution — all in one unified system backed by blockchain timestamps and court-admissible documentation.

Our platform serves four primary user groups: (1) Independent artists and producers who need to protect and monetize their catalog, (2) Record labels managing multi-artist rosters with complex royalty splits, (3) Entertainment attorneys handling contract disputes, royalty litigation, and rights enforcement, and (4) Music distributors and publishers who need DDEX-compliant metadata delivery.

Most music platforms focus on distribution or streaming analytics. We focus on rights protection and revenue recovery. Our audit engine cross-references 15+ databases including MusicBrainz, SoundExchange, and PRO registries. Every report is designed to meet Federal Rules of Evidence standards (FRE 901), making them usable in actual legal proceedings. We also provide real-time conflict detection, automated dispute letters, and T+0 settlement rails — features no standard distributor offers.

No. The platform is designed for music professionals, not engineers. Uploading a catalog, running an audit, or signing a digital contract takes minutes with our step-by-step interface. That said, our API is available for labels and distributors who want to integrate directly with their existing systems.

Yes. All data is encrypted in transit (TLS 1.3) and at rest (AES-256). Contracts and signed documents are hashed using SHA-256 and timestamped on-chain. We maintain SOC 2 Type II compliance and never sell user data to third parties. Your catalog metadata and financial data are yours — we are a service provider, not a rights holder.

Yes. We offer a free catalog audit for up to 25 tracks, a free digital handshake for one agreement, and a read-only demo of the Label Command Center and Attorney Portal. No credit card is required to start. Paid plans unlock unlimited audits, batch processing, court-ready PDF exports, and full API access.
