SOUNDFAMILIAR?STOPGUESSING.

You ask the same questions before every release. Your distributor doesn't know. Their dashboard won't say. So you guess, hope for the best and the release goes out anyway.

Release AssistantFriday the 14th. £120 on ads, not £200. Pitch playlists by Tuesday.
  • Friday, or hold it until spring?
  • Is £200 on ads actually worth it this time?
  • Should I wait until I have more followers?
  • Is this even the right single to lead with?
  • Do I need a playlist pitch, or is that a myth?
  • Is three weeks enough runway?
  • Why did the last one do better?
  • Should the video land before or after?
  • Am I posting too much, or not enough?
  • It's out. Is it working, or too early to tell?
  • Who actually listened last time?
  • Does a vinyl run make any sense yet?
  • Is anyone even waiting for this?
  • How long before the algorithm moves on?

My release is in 3 weeks — what should I focus on right now?

Great timing! You should focus on 3 things this week:

1

Submit your editorial playlist pitch — the sweet spot is 2–3 weeks before release

2

Activate your pre-save link across all socials

3

Film 2 behind-the-scenes TikToks to build anticipation

This alone could boost your likelihood score by ~12%. Want me to break down the playlist pitch strategy?

Our team

BUILT BY
MUSICIANS

Major labels have entire teams reading the data behind every release. Most independent artists have guesswork and hope. We thought that wasn't fair, so we built the tool ourselves.
