Overview

Products are releases that contain your recordings or compositions — albums, singles, and compilations. They are sourced from streaming platforms and stores (such as Spotify, Deezer, iTunes, Amazon, and others) when recordings and compositions are extracted from contracts or added via Edit Catalog. The Catalog shows all products linked to your project’s recordings and compositions in one place.

Views

The Products list can be displayed in two layouts. Use the View button in the top-right of the list to switch between them:

Table View (default)A compact table showing product name, UPC, catalog number(s), artists, release date, and a View button
Card ViewA grid of product cards showing artwork, full metadata, and linked asset counts

What You See

For each product the Catalog shows:
  • Title and artwork — From the store (e.g. Spotify, Deezer)
  • UPC — Universal Product Code (barcode)
  • Catalog Number (Cat No) — Physical release catalog number, sourced from Discogs when available
  • Release date — When the release was issued
  • Copyright — © (composition) and ℗ (sound recording) lines from the store
  • Linked recordings and compositions — Counts and links to the underlying assets
  • Your Copyright — Whether the platform considers this product to be under your copyright (see below)
The platform checks whether a product’s copyright holder matches your project so you can tell your own releases from third‑party ones.

How It Works

When store metadata is linked to your catalog (during contract extraction or when adding assets), the platform:
  1. Reads the copyright text (© and ℗) from the release
  2. Compares it to your project’s entity name, entity aliases, and copyright aliases
  3. Marks the product as Your Copyright if there is a match, otherwise External Copyright
So “Your Copyright” means: the copyright text on the release is recognised as your entity (or one of your aliases). “External Copyright” means no match was found. If you operate under several legal or trade names (e.g. label name, holding company, different territories), add them so the platform can match products to Your Copyright. The platform compares copyright text to:
  • Your project’s legal entity name
  • Copyright aliases (see General Settings)
  • Entity names (linked entities in your project)
Adding all the names under which you appear as copyright holder improves matching. For example, if Spotify shows “Your Label (UK) Ltd” but your project only has “Your Label”, add “Your Label (UK) Ltd” as a copyright alias. To add or edit copyright aliases, go to Project Settings → General and use the Copyright Aliases section there.

Filters

From the Products list you can filter by:
FilterOptions
Product typeAll, Single, Album, Compilation
ArtistArtists linked to products in your catalog
CopyrightYour Copyright — matched to your entity/aliases; External Copyright — not matched
Use Your Copyright to focus on releases you own or control; use External Copyright to review appearances on other parties’ releases (e.g. compilations, licenses).

  • Links through to each recording and composition detail page

How Products Appear in Your Catalog

Products are not added on their own. They appear when:
  1. Contract extraction — Recordings/compositions extracted from contracts are enriched with data from streaming platforms and stores; the albums/singles/compilations they appear on become products linked to your catalog.
  2. Edit Catalog — When you add recordings or compositions to a contract, the selected releases are linked as products.
So your product list grows as you add and link recordings and compositions from contracts.

Store Tabs on Recording and Composition Pages

When viewing a recording or composition detail page, the Products tab shows all releases that contain it across stores. Products are grouped by store:
  • All — A chronological timeline of all products, regardless of store
  • Spotify, Deezer, iTunes, Amazon, and any other stores where the asset appears
Each product card shows the store label, release date, UPC, artists, and linked tracks with their ISRCs and duration.
