Built for everyone who creates a work
What you gain
Works, contracts, splits, registration forms and deadlines, all in one place. Everyone sees what concerns them, and nothing else.
Example
Invite @nora on the single, as composer.
👋 Done. Nora sees her split and the form, nothing else. I’ll let you know as soon as she validates.
Invite
Every author, composer or performer has their own @tag, linked to a verified address. Invited on a work, they see their split and nothing else.
Example
Who hasn’t validated the splits yet?
🧭 The publisher’s approval is still missing. The other two validated yesterday. Should I send them a reminder?
Splits
Splits are proposed, discussed and validated together. Every version is kept, and nothing goes out until everyone has said yes.
Example
Prepare the single’s registration.
✅ The splits are validated: the registration form and assignment agreement are ready. I’ll show them to you before signing.
Registrations
Once the splits are validated, AGORA fills in the registration form and prepares the assignment agreement, to sign electronically or as a PDF.
Example
What does my contract say if the track is certified Gold?
🏆 A bonus, under clause 5.3. I’ll notify the label and you, and a payment task opens.
Contracts
Ernest reads your contracts, tracks bonuses, options, advances and deadlines, and notifies the right people at the right time.
Example
Has the label paid me the bonus?
📮 Yes, the transfer is logged with proof. Confirm receipt and the task closes.
Payments
When a contract triggers a payment, a task opens: the label pays from its bank and attaches proof, the recipient confirms receipt.
Example
Where does the recoupment of my advance on the first album stand?
🔎 I’m looking at that album alone, with its own contract: the second album has its own separate accounts.
Albums soon
From one album to the next, contracts change. AGORA sorts revenue, advances and deadlines by album, so you always know where each recoupment stands.
Example
Add my clothing brand as an activity.
🎉 Done: it has its own icon and accounts, right next to merch and concerts.
Merch & live soon
Showcases, concerts, merchandising, or an activity of your own: a brand, a series, a book. Each has its own icon and accounts.
Example
Together
The label, the artists, the publisher and their advisors work on the same piece, each in their place.
By your @tag, on a work, a contract or a registration. You see what concerns you, nothing more.
Agreement, a reasoned dispute, or a new proposal: every action is dated and bears its author’s name.
He reads the signed contract and notifies everyone when a bonus, an option or a deadline comes up.
Get started

Questions
Write to us, we reply by email.
contact@agoramusicplace.comNever. An artist, songwriter or lawyer invited by @tag validates what concerns them for free. Only the space that invites pays for a plan.
No. You pay a fixed plan fee. Many rights administration platforms take between 10% and 20% of the amounts collected; AGORA takes nothing.
No. AGORA calculates what’s owed and opens a task: the label pays from its bank and attaches proof, the recipient confirms receipt.
No. Ernest reads your contracts and tells you what they say, page in hand. Before any decision, a lawyer confirms.
The Artist plan is yours, not your label’s: Ernest reads your contracts there and answers you without bias.
